| penguin42 | how do we mark kernel bugs that trigger during installation so that the reporter doesn't get hastled to try latest mainline kernels etc? | 00:05 |
|---|---|---|
| Logan_ | Can somebody change the status of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/jockey/+bug/804662 to "Confirmed" (and remove the assigned person)? | 00:13 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 804662 in jockey "jockey-gtk crashed with TypeError in _execute_child(): execv() arg 2 must contain only strings" [Undecided,Fix released] | 00:13 |
| Logan_ | It was incorrectly marked as Fix Released by a newbie, and someone assigned it to himself randomly, and I can't change the values back. | 00:13 |
| * penguin42 looks | 00:14 | |
| penguin42 | I can't figure out wth is going on with that bug - it seems like loads of people who are newish have changed the assignment on it or changed the state | 00:18 |
| Logan_ | Yeah... | 00:19 |
| Logan_ | It's really frustrating, as it's a major bug, and having it marked as Fix Released/Committed is essentially hiding it from the developers. | 00:20 |
| hggdh | some bugs get to be a strange attractor | 00:20 |
| * Logan_ just applied for the the BugSquad. :-P | 00:21 | |
| penguin42 | hggdh: I'm just wondering if it's some form of spam type thing - I can't see why there are so many changes of status, all from people who aren't members of any groups, and who have 0 karma and are recent joiners | 00:21 |
| Logan_ | Probably a language/knowledge barrier on Launchpad. | 00:21 |
| Logan_ | People get sent to the bug via apport, and then they assign it to themselves because they know no better. :-P | 00:22 |
| Logan_ | (Can't figure out the status changes, though.) | 00:22 |
| hggdh | yeah | 00:23 |
| hggdh | penguin42: perhaps we should mark it triaged | 00:23 |
| penguin42 | hggdh: Not sure - is it understood? | 00:24 |
| penguin42 | hggdh: I'm going to flag it to the bug-control list | 00:24 |
| hggdh | I do not know, and I do not think so (TL;DR) | 00:24 |
| Logan_ | Want me to explain the bug? :-P | 00:25 |
| hggdh | nah, let's keep it confirmed. I think the attractor is the video drive | 00:25 |
| hggdh | Logan_: no ;-) I do not deal with video in any form, colour, or type | 00:25 |
| Logan_ | Okay. | 00:26 |
| Logan_ | How long does it take to be accepted to the BugSquad? | 00:26 |
| Logan_ | Just applied; I'd love to help out. | 00:26 |
| hggdh | Logan_: takes about 2 minutes ;-) | 00:27 |
| Logan_ | Haha. | 00:27 |
| hggdh | Logan_: welcome to the BugSquad, and all that. Please do not hesitate in asking questions here, we strive to help | 00:28 |
| penguin42 | welcome on board! | 00:28 |
| Logan_ | Thanks! | 00:28 |
| * Logan_ adds this channel to his favorites. | 00:28 | |
| * hggdh goes monitor the TV for the destruction around | 00:29 | |
| hggdh | see you all tomorrow | 00:29 |
| penguin42 | yeh, and it's 1:30am here - so bed time! | 00:30 |
| penguin42 | I've flagged that bug to the bugcontrol list | 00:30 |

| jcdutton | Question: bug#973161 Does anyone know which package it should be against? It is a problem with the left hand icon bar when in auto hide mode | 09:57 |
| hjd | Would anyone mind if I reopen bug 973206? It consistently crash on Precise when you attempt to run it. | 10:17 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 973206 in gmorgan "gmorgan crashed with SIGSEGV in fclose()" [Undecided,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/973206 | 10:17 |
| arand | Sounds reasonable, are you able to get the debug info with updated debug symols? | 10:19 |
| jcdutton | arand, surely to get that, you would need a non-stripped dbg version of gmorgan? | 10:28 |
| hjd | fwiw, I tried https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash, but I didn't find a dbgsym package for gmorgan.. | 10:29 |
| arand | Ah, indeed, it doesn't create one :( | 10:30 |
| arand | SO also report a bug on that ;) | 10:30 |
| arand | But anyhow, if it does crash reproducibly, I'd still say to re-open the bug report. | 10:31 |
| jcdutton | arand, I like that, report a bug because there is not enough information to fix another bug! | 10:31 |
| hjd | and where would I file that one? To gmorgan as well "Please provide a debug package"? | 10:32 |
| jcdutton | arand, I opened a similar bug report, but for 64bit | 10:32 |
| arand | hjd: Yeah. | 10:32 |
| jcdutton | Which package provides the icon bar on the left had side of unity? | 10:34 |
| hjd | arand: done. Reopened + filed bug 973282 about the debug package. | 10:50 |

| penguin42 | is there a bug tag for bugs that are trivially repeatable? | 17:46 |
| roadmr | penguin42: if it has a good set of steps to reproduce you can tag it "testcase" (I think) | 17:48 |
| roadmr | penguin42: no difference between trivial (1. launch program X, 2. watch it crash and burn) and more complicated sequences of steps, if this is what you mean | 17:49 |
| penguin42 | ah testcase sounds good | 17:49 |
| roadmr | penguin42: yes, once you have steps to reproduce all bugs are potentially trivially repeatable :) | 17:49 |
| penguin42 | roadmr: Well it's just some are very very simple and don't require any setup or anything like that, it's just 'run this command and it goes bang' | 17:50 |
| roadmr | penguin42: I see, I'd still just use testcase for them | 17:50 |
| penguin42 | ko, thanks | 17:50 |
| penguin42 | ok even | 17:50 |

| jtaylor | penguin42: which package? | 19:41 |
| penguin42 | jtaylor: sipcalc - I've got to the bottom of the bug - see bug 973602 | 19:41 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 973602 in sipcalc "sipcalc crashed with SIGABRT in __libc_message()" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/973602 | 19:41 |
| jtaylor | sid works | 19:43 |
| penguin42 | jtaylor: Thanks; I think it's probably only our builds with fortify that are failing | 19:43 |
| penguin42 | jtaylor: What package version is in sid? | 19:44 |
| jtaylor | 1.1.4-2.1 | 19:44 |
| jtaylor | though I only tried a chroot | 19:44 |
| jtaylor | not sure what that package does | 19:44 |
| penguin42 | nod | 19:44 |
| penguin42 | jtaylor: It does some ip address calculation by the looks of it, I'm sure I've heard of people using it | 19:45 |
| jtaylor | let me still check in a real sid | 19:45 |
| penguin42 | jtaylor: It looks like an easy fix, but the original author released a new version about 3 years ago with it fixed, it seems that would be the right thing to use (1.1.5) | 19:45 |
| jtaylor | also fails in precise chroot so probably sid not affected | 19:45 |
| penguin42 | jtaylor: Nod | 19:46 |
| penguin42 | jtaylor: I was triaging it on Precise | 19:46 |
| penguin42 | jtaylor: I'm not really sure what to do with that bug now, best thing is to say that it just needs the package updating | 19:57 |
| jtaylor | penguin42: given the small change I think its resonable to just update to the new upstream | 20:15 |
