micahginfinity: are you up for a pocket copỷ07:20
seb128cjwatson, hey09:02
cjwatsonseb128: hi09:03
seb128cjwatson, we have a gtk upload to do, should be use proposed to avoid !i386 installability issues?09:03
seb128be->we09:03
cjwatsonseb128: yes please, although we'll need to be aware that anything else in -proposed that would build-dep on gtk won't build until gtk has finished building09:04
cjwatsonbut that's better than the alternative09:04
seb128right09:04
seb128thanks09:04
cjwatsonwell, won't build in the period between i386 building and the relevant other arch building09:05
seb128it will create the same issue it would create in precise to precise-proposed basically09:05
cjwatsonyep09:05
seb128i.e we are just moving the issue09:05
cjwatsonyes, to a safer place09:06
seb128but well, if proposed is not being used right now for something else I guess it's better ;-)09:06

jdstrandskaet: hi! where is the release manifest for hardy? trying to figure out if lpia is still supported12:59
cjwatsonjdstrand: architecture lists per release are in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/PackageArchive#Architectures13:01
* cjwatson goes to add armhf to that13:02
cjwatsonwe didn't keep release manifests for hardy13:02
cjwatsonI don't *think* hardy lpia was LTS, but we can't stop building any architecture until the entire distroseries is obsolete, MO13:03
cjwatsonIMO13:03
jdstrandcjwatson: it isn't clear to me that lpia is discontinued or not.13:03
jdstrandcjwatson: yeah-- but there was a snafu where packages got published before lpia finished building and we're trying to decide to rebuild or not13:04
hggdhjust a question, is there a change of getting bug 961295 in Precise?13:04
ubot2Launchpad bug 961295 in live-boot "Enable overlayfs (in precise)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/96129513:04
mdeslaurI think the lpia builder should still exist until hardy goes away so the community can do stuff with it, but I don't think a lpia build failure is something that is supported13:04
cjwatsonhggdh: why're you using live-boot?13:04
cjwatsonanyway:13:05
hggdhcjwatson: I am not, it was \sh (originally on bugs.d.o) and someone just asked this question in -bugs13:05

cjwatson -- Stephan Adig <sh@sourcecode.de>  Fri, 03 Feb 2012 14:08:28 +010013:05
hggdhcjwatson: heh. I guess I am answered. Want me to close the bug, or will you?13:05
cjwatsonI'm closing it now13:05
cjwatsonjdstrand: I can't say I'd bother rebuilding for it13:06
cjwatsonbut like mdeslaur I think the builder should still exist13:06
skaetjdstrand,  what cjwatson says  ;)  I believe ReleaseManifests started being kept with Karmic onwards.13:06
cjwatsonyou could rebuild for it if anyone notices13:06
mdeslaurcjwatson: we got an email already :)13:07
cjwatsonah, then I think there's a reasonable argument we should rebuild - but is it something time-consuming?13:07
mdeslaurcjwatson: no, this time it's a little thing...It's just our lpia builder keeps getting plundered for other tasks :P13:08
brendandskaet, hi13:14
skaethiya brendand13:17
brendandskaet, is the release meeting called off tomorrow?13:18
cjwatsonmm, I won't be there13:18
skaetbrendand,  no,  those who can attend should be there.13:19
seb128no desktoper here either (pitti is off, I'm off as well)13:19
brendandskaet, i can send out the mail but i won't be there to answer questions ;)13:19
skaetissue is that easter monday is also a holiday, so sliding to then won't work either.13:20
skaetand we do need a Q&A session.13:20
skaetcjwatson,  can slangasek rep you?13:20
cjwatsonask him :)13:20
skaet:)   will do.13:20
skaetplease have the emails sent out before tomorrow,  since we'll definitely need to do most of this that way.  :)13:21
cjwatsonwill do my best but I'll have to leave early (well, on time) today as well so it'll be a bit of a squeeze13:22
skaetI'm working on the email for the plan for the rest of the month,  pulling in the feedback.13:22
Laneywhat are you doing about the universe delegate thing?13:22
* skaet will ignore IRC for next 30 minutes or so, so I can figure it out.13:22
LaneyI didn't realise that the language was a hangover from the old days, but that does make sense.13:22
stgraberskaet: I probably won't be there either, got a flight to catch in the afternoon13:23
skaetLaney,  I'll go change the language and set the expectations that #ubuntu-motu is a where the discussion should go.   Will indicate release team members will be monitoring list for FFe and fix inclusion requests for unseeded universe packages.13:25
brendandskaet, roadmr will attend and answer any questions directed at certification13:27
LaneyOK13:27
skaetWe'll try it the way suggested in the thread.   If lack of focal turns out to be a problem (ie.  I get pings cause things are being ignored),  we'll revisit and figure out the focal.13:27
skaetto direct traffic.13:28
LaneyMOTU isn't so active, so I don't expect it to be a problem.13:28
skaetInstead of daily meeting,  we'll try a combination of 3 changes: 1) http://pad.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-frozen-archive to record things package is in question.   Relying on backscroll doesn't work.13:30
skaet2) up until final freeze,  1 ack on fix is sufficient,  after final freeze 2 release team acks in the bug will be needed.13:31
cjwatsonat some point (probably after I've implemented a first pass at the queue API) we should arrange for there to be some facility to leave notes in the queue13:32
cjwatsona separate scratchpad for that is clearly error-prone13:32
skaet3) preset time in channel for Q&A if needed,  1600 UTC for those with questions/concerns to raise.  I'll plan on doing a pass before then,  putting my questions/etc. in scratch pad,  but this way if folks are looking theres a predictable time to aim at for rendezvous without the overhead of a meeting.13:34
skaetcjwatson,  yeah scratch pad is error prone, and getting better queue API is the right solution.   relying on backscroll was even worse,  so seemed reasonable way to track.13:35
skaetIf anyone has concerns about a package, and wants to make sure its discussed.  Please add it to the pad, and the concern point.  Discussion will happen in next 1600 UTC rendezvous.13:37
skaetthis is not to stop discussion in channel,  just to augment it like we've been doing with using the pad for managing the release.13:37
* skaet will be committing to be in channel at that time unless traveling.13:38
skaetwho accepted esteid-meta?   Could you please signal in the channel or on the pad please.13:42
cjwatsonit's unseeded universe - does it matter?13:47
seb128cjwatson, can you pocket copy gtk? it built everywhere13:56
cjwatsonseb128: yep, one momet14:03

skaethttp://paste.ubuntu.com/916057/14:03
cjwatsongrr, why's it not on pending-sru14:03
skaetcjwatson, stgraber, Laney, pitti,  ^ any tweaks/clarifications before I send?   did I miss any points from the discussions?14:04
seb128skaet, is that pre-release freeze a new concept? it's not on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PrecisePangolin/ReleaseSchedule14:05
cjwatsonseb128: let me just debug pending-sru before I lose my test case for it14:05
seb128cjwatson, that's ok, there is no hurry to get that in ;-)14:06
skaetseb128,  we stayed frozen after beta last time.   so we were in pre-freeze then.14:06
skaetpre-release freeze is what its called launchpad when the archive is frozen.14:06
seb128skaet, ok, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BetaFreeze might need to be updated then14:06
seb128"Once the BetaRelease is shipped, we roll back to FeatureFreeze and UserInterfaceFreeze status. " it states14:06
skaetseb128,  yes it does.14:06
skaetalso comments on reviewers for Unseeded Universe, etc.  have been sorted a bit more14:07
cjwatsonseb128: wait, where's this upload anyway?  I don't see it in either https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk%2B2.0 or https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk%2B3.014:07
skaetI'll do it in a single pass.14:07
seb128cjwatson, gtk+3.014:07
cjwatsonoh, not published yet14:07
cjwatsonhmm, that's very odd14:07
seb128cjwatson, https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk+3.0/3.4.0-0ubuntu414:07
cjwatsonyeah, but why's it not published14:08
seb128that's surprising indeed14:08
Laneyskaet: clarify that this is for seeded/stuff on images everywhere14:08

stgraberskaet: "explicit acknowledgement of who did review in bugs" is that bit for late FFe or for all uploads? wondering as some uploads may not have bugs linked (thinking of translation updates) or may have several14:10
skaetstgraber,  was trying to incorporate pitti's suggestion.14:10
Laney"all fixes reviewed" sounds harsh before finalfreeze?14:11
cjwatsonthis is easy enough to fix, but it'll be a day or two14:11
Laneyis that what we did before?14:11
skaetshould be for all uploads with bugs (FFEs and fixes should have).   Pad to be used to fill in the gaps when bugs not appropriated.14:11
cjwatsonquite possibly won't be deployed until after Easter now14:11
cjwatsonbecause it's absolute minimum tomorrow morning before it'll be even available for QA14:12
cjwatsonand I'll be on holiday14:12
skaetLaney, yes every fix after beta 2 last cycle was reviewed as part of pushing through archive for the seeded packages.14:12
cjwatsonI can probably copy it anyway, I assume you want it in precise before next week?14:12
seb128cjwatson, gtk? please14:13
seb128cjwatson, I plan to do another upload later than I want to stay in proposed for the w.e though14:13
seb128cjwatson, upstream just came out with http://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/commit/?id=917ca6a802af574232f413fdf904e1633d706b5214:13
seb128which is an optimization for scrolling, but it could lead to missing refreshes14:14
cjwatsonupshot of this for those not familiar with LP: precise-proposed is *only* useful right now for getting builds in sync.  It is no use for testing installability or testing anything else really until I get this fixed.14:15
seb128cjwatson, do you want my new gtk in there to have a testcase over the w.e or should I use the ubuntu-desktop ppa?14:15
* skaet notes it.14:16
seb128well "new" = the one I will upload in a bit14:16
cjwatsonseb128: no, I'll arrange for some other test case on dogfood14:16
seb128cjwatson, ok14:16
seb128I will use the ppa then14:16
cjwatsonseb128: damn.  I'm sorry, I can't copy these until they're published14:20
cjwatsonI think it's stuck until I get a fix deployed14:20
seb128cjwatson, ok, which is not before next week right?14:21
seb128cjwatson, should I do a no change upload as -5 in precise then?14:21
cjwatsonI'm not sure.  There's some chance I might be able to manage something for tomorrow, but I can't promise anything14:21
seb128cjwatson, I would like some of those patches to get in before the w.e to get a bit of feedback14:21
cjwatsonproblem with that is that there's high probability of uninstallability for a time14:22
seb128do we still have a rebuild running or something that would be hit by uninstallability issues?14:22
cjwatsonI don't know, but users would be, and image builds depending on timing14:23
seb128cjwatson, ok, don't worry, I planned to do that ppa testing version anyway14:23
seb128cjwatson, I will do a call for testing in -5 in the desktop ppa14:23
seb128cjwatson, get -4 moved to precise when you can, next week will do if needed14:23
seb128cjwatson, just make sure I get a freeze exception for it, it was uploaded before the pre-freeze :p14:24
seb128cjwatson, sorry for the trouble14:24
cjwatsonis the desktop PPA nonvirt?14:24
seb128no, it's virtual14:24
cjwatsonso can't copy from it14:24
seb128but that's ok, we will get enough testers on that14:24
seb128well I didn't want -5 to go to the archive yet14:25
seb128it will have the scrolling optimization changes I want testing on14:25
seb128but it's good enough that I can ask people to test the other patches with that version as well14:25
seb128cjwatson, just copy -4 when you can, I will get testing from -5 in the ppa for now14:26
seb128there is nothing urgent in -414:26

cjwatsonthanks; I've noted my concern in the whiteboard of that blueprint16:03
jdstrandskaet: can you review https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/FAQ#Architectures for accuracy? note that the intended audience for this is different than https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/PackageArchive#Architectures (which is particularly confusing wrt lpia and maybe others)16:07
jdstrandskaet: this is based on what our team has been supporting over the years, and we have been careful to be as accurate as possible (though, obviously an error might have crept in, which is why I am asking you to review it :)16:09
bjfcjwatson: this last problem was entirely my fault. i disabled the cron while i worked on the last failure and then didn't turn it back on16:09

seb128slangasek, I got some #ubuntu-desktop testing from the ppa and it's in the stable serie upstream git21:09
slangasekseb128: oh; is that related to update-manager's refresh being slow?21:09

seb128slangasek, I will discuss the update-manager stuff with mvo next week, that's new to me21:11
seb128slangasek, no, I got testing on gwibber etc from ken and others and it's in upstream git, nobody noticed regressions so I think the earlier it reach the archive the better21:11
seb128i.e limited testing is fine, if we will get a real issue it's going to be a corner one and I prefer to know sooner than later21:12
slangasekI'm not sure that u-m issue is one that's been raised as a bug report; I've seen it here and I know there were reports of something similar in the installer... I haven't connected the dots between them yet21:13
seb128slangasek, it's likely -um's fault21:13
slangaseksure :)21:14
seb128it should probably block the update signal while it's changing the model21:14

seb128slangasek, well I will discuss it with mvo but I know gtk changed this cycle, they send selection changed signals when the selected row is deleted from the model which it didn't do before21:15

skaetah,  new oneiric drop being waited for... thanks, bjf22:40
cjwatsonphillw: confirmed22:40
skaetthanks cjwatson.  :)22:41
phillwskaet: 3.0.0.18 failed.... thanks bjf ; i know I'm a pain at times, but I do get requests of what is going on :)22:41
cjwatsonphillw: did that a few weeks back22:41
infinityskaet: cjwatson did -22 yesterday, and I did -1602 (armadaxp) today...22:41
bjfphillw, you can always ping us in the kernel channel, i don't hang out here usually (though maybe i should)22:41
cjwatsoninfinity: oh, glad somebody did, I'd noticed that on NBS22:41
skaetthanks infinity. :)22:41
infinitycjwatson: Yeah, didn't set up CIA on my ac100, so no commit spam.22:42
infinityI really need to automate that on all my systems so it doesn't take thought/effort.22:42
cjwatson^- purely translation updates; requested in particular by the Uyghur translation team (and I can understand why, as their previous translation was full of placeholder strings)23:00
cjwatson(if accepted soon enough it should build in time to avoid breaking most image builds ...)23:04
* cjwatson re-promotes gtk2-engines-pixbuf to main (was in main up to natty) to render light-themes and hence ubuntu-desktop installable again23:07
cjwatsonsecond time this cycle it's been re-added, judging from the changelog ...23:07
tjaaltonI've uploaded a new libwacom to -proposed, fixes bug 93444523:08
ubot2Launchpad bug 934445 in gnome-settings-daemon "hits g_assert (device->priv->styli) when my Wacom Bamboo 2FG 4x5 is plugged in" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/93444523:08
tjaaltonit's also a "merge", but there were no real changes23:09
tjaaltonother than the patch23:09
cjwatsonwhee, bug 873009 fixed for free23:27
ubot2Launchpad bug 873009 in grub2 "Unable to boot degraded RAID-1 array from second disk" [High,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/87300923:27
brycehI have some fixes to upload for xdiagnose, which is on the cd.  fixes a couple issues in the diagnostic gui, and some fixes to the X apport hooks23:27
brycehI've been testing it locally (which is why I missed the cut-off).  Is it still ok if I upload, do I need pre-approval, or should I scrap it?23:28
brycehskaet, ^^23:29
skaetbryceh, go ahead if its well tested, and there isn't much chance of regression.23:30
brycehskaet, ok will do23:30
infinitycjwatson: That's a fun accidental fix.23:31
cjwatsonspectacularly unexpected, and just as well since it was going to be an utter nightmare to debug23:32
infinitycjwatson: Given what fixed it, I'd go so far as to say it might have been nearly undebuggable, at least not without wasting far more time than anyone should have done.23:34
cjwatsonI could probably have plodded through the disk caching code given a few solid days on the problem, though I didn't get far when I tried it at the last release sprint23:34
cjwatsonbut yeah, quite23:34
skaetcjwatson,  ubiquity approved, only seeing the translations, agreed looks pretty straightforward.23:36
cjwatsongreat, thanks23:36
* skaet not feeling that comfortable about libwacom though....23:38
skaetinfinity, could you take a look at the libwacom one?23:40
cjwatsonso that's two rls-p-tracking bugs left assigned to me, which I am now cheerfully going to ignore until Tuesday23:40
cjwatsonslangasek: we seem to have forgotten about bug 853679; looks like perhaps a fairly easy cherry-pick?23:40
ubot2Launchpad bug 853679 in dpkg "dselect has an error in the "Provides: <package>" multiarch case" [Low,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/85367923:40
skaetcjwatson,  have a good easter weekend.23:41
infinityskaet: Sure, I'll poke.23:41
skaetthanks infinity.23:41
cjwatsonslangasek: ae61affca427ed53e33eff589af0356b6e951a21 in dpkg.git; we have the dpkg half already but not the dselect half23:41
cjwatsonskaet: thanks, you too23:41
infinitycjwatson: Can you mail me about that dselect commit, so I don't forget about IRC backscroll, I'll look at it on the weekend.23:42
cjwatsoninfinity: done23:43
infinity<323:43
infinitytjaalton: "remaining changes: none" in libwacom, I assume, doesn't count the new patch just added? :P23:46
tjaaltoninfinity: no, it's a new changelog entry :)23:47
tjaaltonadding the patch I mean23:47
tjaaltonit was just to point out that it could just as well be synced, but I skipped the "upload to debian" part this time23:48
infinitySlack.23:48
infinityAccepted.23:48
tjaaltonooh23:48
tjaaltonthanks23:49
infinitybryceh: Why drop GDM support from xdiagnose?  It seems benign, except in the case where someone actually has GDM installed, in which case you'd still want the logs, surely?23:50
brycehinfinity, yeah mostly just for the sake of cruft elimination.23:53
infinityI suppose.  It would make sense to me to test for all known DMs just in case you might want their logs, rather than going the other direction.23:54
brycehinfinity, anyone who has upgraded from older distros will have gdm.log's hanging around which will be of no interest.  We have to prompt to include the file since it potentially can contain sensitive info (it's only readable by root).  Since it's unlikely we will need it, I figure it's safer to just generally omit it.  If we really need it, we can just ask for it.23:55
infinityFair enough.23:55
infinityI guess you could scan all *dm logs for timestamps, and assume the latest is the one they use.23:56
infinityBut that does sound a bit like effort.23:56
brycehinfinity, yes you're right that a more proper solution would involve checking the running dm and so on, but for debugging purposes we need them only very occasionally anyway23:56
* infinity nods.23:56
infinityWant to file a bug to do the above (check for all DMs, and include the most recently-abused?)23:57
infinityBut I'll accept this cruft removal option for now. :P23:57
brycehplus I figure given the freeze status, deleting code is safer than adding something more sophisticated.23:57
infinityYeahp.23:57
infinityThat bug wouldn't be precise targetted.23:57
brycehinfinity, certainly, will do23:57
