infinityScottK: I'm rejecting yofel's 4.8.2a uploads, since they are literally identical to their previous 4.8.2 counterparts.  If you'd like to sort that out and figure out WTF?02:03
ScottKSigh.02:03
ScottKinfinity: I think there's a reason for it.02:03
infinity(Like, no upstream changes, and the changelog were the 4.8.2 changelogs with s/2/2a/02:03
infinity)02:03
infinityI'd like to think that if the version bumped, the orig would at least be different?  I dunno.02:04
infinityAnyhow, one of those conflicted with an upload of yours that had an actual bugfix, so that sealed the deal for me. :P02:05
ScottKOK.02:05
ScottKI didn't check the queue, so I didn't see all of them.02:05
ScottK(after all, I was fixing, not releasing)02:05
ScottKThe reason is that it was the a version in our PPA we use for pre-upload testing.02:06
infinityI'm unconvinced that s/4.8.2/4.8.2a/ debian/changelog && debuild -S qualifies as "releasing"...02:06
ScottKRight, I meant I wasn't doing Ubuntu Release stuff.02:06
infinityYeah.02:06
ScottKSomeone bumped the versions back down for the initial upload, but then that screwed up upgrades for PPA users.02:06
ScottKWe get pre-final tarballs from upstream for packaging and if they have to respin them pre-release then we bump the version.02:07
infinitySo this is artificial version bumps to smooth PPA issues? :/02:07
ScottKYes, but it's for people who are our best testers.02:08
infinityNo, not questioning the rationale, just how you got there.02:08
ScottKSince this is the final version for release anyone who installed the PPA packages will never see security updates, etc.02:08
infinitySurely, you could version the PPA stuff (in future) as 4.8.2~ ?02:08
ScottKMight be a good idea.02:08
ScottKFor 4.8.2 we are where we are though.02:08
infinityYeah, fair enough.02:09
infinityPlease convey my apologies and have people reupload the no-change version bumps.02:09
infinityNow that I know what it's about.02:09
ScottKYou can accept from rejected.02:09
infinityIs there a 4.8.3 on the horizon to paper over the oops? :P02:09
infinityI can for the one that didn't conflict with yours.02:10
infinityI guess you can reupload kde-workspace.02:10
ScottKI can redo mine.02:10
ScottKYes, but it'll be a post-release micro-version update.02:10
infinityAnyhow, un-rejected kdepim-runtime, I leave -workspace to you.02:11
ScottKOK.02:11
infinityslangasek: Did you want to grab the pvr-omap4 debs and dpkg-deb -I/-c sanity check them/etc to make sure the output matches your source review?02:14
infinityjbicha: Your libcanberra changelog completely fails to mention one of the two added patches (the -lX11 one).02:17
infinityslangasek: Unless that's also your fault?  I notice his debdiff has one of your old changelog entries magically changing the timestamp by 6 minutes.  A case of bzr and archive being skewed?02:17
jbichainfinity: thanks, I'll reupload without that extra patch02:23
infinityjbicha: Are we sure it's not needed? :)02:23
jbichaok, I could just add the patch to the changelog then02:25
infinityjbicha: Well, maybe it's not required.  I have no idea.  You tell me. :P02:26
infinityjbicha: If it's fixing a legit bug, please, add it to the changelog. ;)02:26
infinityI'll reject.02:26
jdstrandslangasek: thanks for the hamster-indicator deNEW02:30
ScottKinfinity: It should be there now.02:30
jbichainfinity: hmm, here's an old libcanberra bug, wonder why it hasn't been fixed https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3145402:31
ubot2Freedesktop bug 31454 in Unspecified "linking to libcanberra-gtkX fails because of missing -lX11" [Normal,New: ]02:31
jbichaI've been running my patch for 2 months and it's seemed ok, rodrigo's patch is a bit different though02:32
ScottKWhat was wrong with openchange?02:32
infinityScottK: There were three of them. :P02:33
ScottKAh.  OK.02:33
ScottKjelmer was over achieving.02:34
infinityjelmer might have been sliiiightly impatient.02:34
ScottK;-)02:34
infinityjbicha: His is probably more correct, but yours does the same job.02:36
infinityjbicha: As for why the bug hasn't been addressed upstream, did you check the assignee? :P02:36
infinity*cough*02:36
infinityWas that my out loud voice?  Hrm.02:37
jbichawell it's his baby http://0pointer.de/lennart/projects/libcanberra/02:37
infinityI'm going to avoid extending the metaphor to the ultimate "deadbeat dad" conclusion.02:38
jbichalol02:38
infinityI wish we had the manpower to do forced queue reviews all cycle long.02:45
infinityI do wonder how much saner things would be if we could get away with it without slowing everything to a crawl.02:46
Sarvattinfinity: but then noone would accept gnome crack a month before release thats still in the middle of implementing new features and we'd be 6 months behind upstream02:52
brycehhaha, true!02:52
brycehwe'd have nothing to occupy our time after beta2 since we wouldn't have so many bugs from last minute packages02:53
infinityWhat a shame.  We could instead work on features for the next release.  That would be awful!02:54
brycehterrible02:54
Sarvatttotally02:54
Sarvattits totally ok to rewrite how suspend on lid close is handled in gnome to use xrandr that breaks proprietary drivers that fedora who does gnome doesn't care about a month before release after all, that wont cause any regressions03:01
Sarvattwhoops, some bitterness seeped through there, i'm sorry :)03:01
infinityI was going to say...03:01
infinityI believe ScottK has a shipment of tiny violins en route to me, I can share them with you.03:02
brycehinfinity, thanks, please send one each to every nvidia laptop owner03:03
infinityI'm an nvidia laptop owner.03:04
infinityBut I never close my lid.03:04
infinityThat way lies madness.03:04
infinityWhy would people be implementing new features in randr anyway?  They'll just have to tear it out and rewrite it when wayland becomes the new hotness, like, next week.03:07
brycehinfinity, uh huh03:07
infinitySorry, I've been hanging out with keithp all week, I'm infected.03:08
infinityIt'll pass.03:08
Sarvattinfinity: they're making suspend on lid close require randr 1.3 features which proprietary drivers don't implement03:11
Sarvatti think thats fixed in a distro patch now anyway though, was just violins :)03:12
infinitySarvatt: Brilliant.03:12
Sarvattits just fun coming across those things so close to release03:13
ScottKinfinity: Yofel, not me.03:23
slangasekinfinity: yes, I'm doing the binary new on pvr-omap4 as well04:04
slangasekinfinity: libcanberra> I have no clue, honestly... how long ago was that?04:08
slangasekinfinity: could be archive v. upload skew, certainly04:08
skaetjdstrand, Architectures are matching my understanding.05:10

infinityslangasek: I'm heading out, so don't have the time to look more closely, but at first glance, data/package_data_downloader.py looks like an exact copy of data/package-data-downloader?05:46

=== bladernr_afk is now known as bladernr_
mterryHello!  I have a couple changes to the Unity Greeter that John Lea requested that I was hoping to push in today.  Saw Kate's email and thought I'd run them by ya'll first.  Especially as they are visual changes (though small)12:57
mterryLet me dig up URLs12:57
mterryhttps://code.launchpad.net/~mterry/unity-greeter/designfixups/+merge/100868 and https://code.launchpad.net/~mterry/light-themes/greeter-white-border/+merge/10085612:58
mterryBasically, the changes slightly move the usernames down a bit.  Make the password entry box slightly bigger.  And make the focus color around buttons white instead of orange.12:59
Laneyjbicha: ^^^13:02
jbichamterry: ubuntu-docs doesn't document the greeter so minor tweaks are fine with me13:29
mterryjbicha, cool.  Is that enough to proceed on then?13:30
jbichaI guess so, the Release Team will give their +1/-1 by approving or rejecting the upload, right?13:31
mterryjbicha, fair enough  :)13:32
LaneyI would say that you should document the uife in a bug13:33
mterryLaney, I didn't file a formal one, wasn't sure it needed it.  Do you mean I should file one or just document this IRC conversation?13:34
Laneyboth — the person who approves the upload might not necessarily read this conversation13:35
mterryLaney, right.  But you're saying I need a further +1 on a UIFe bug.  i.e. this conversation does not represent a UIFe?13:36
ScottKI didn't see any release team member approving the UIFe.13:36
Laneyno, I'm saying it does, just that you should put it onto LP for auditing13:36
* Laney will.13:36
mterryLaney, OK13:36
* jbicha logs out for a few minutes13:37
mterryLaney, where's the line on what kind of UI changes need a UIFe?  Like, anything that would likely impact screenshots?13:37
Laneyhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/UserInterfaceFreeze13:38
mterryLaney, right.  So I gather from your response that it's a hardline any-changes-at-all-no-matter-how-small13:39
Laneymterry: We/I usually don't know what the documentation contains, so defer to the people doing that work for their opinion, as happened here.13:41
LaneyIf it's in the default install then any change might impact their work, so it's a courtesy to check that.13:41
mterryLaney, k.  So always ask  :)13:41
* ScottK pokes unseeded Universe stuff out of the queue.13:46
astraljavaskaet: other: I apologise for realising this late the missing release mail from Xubuntu, you can find it here: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-release/2012-April/001098.html13:48

ScottK(but the queue is slow)13:51
bjfskaet: can i trouble an AA to pocket-copy linux-3.0.0-19.32, linux-backports-modules-3.0.0-3.0.0-19.12 and linux-meta-3.0.0-19.23 to -proposed please14:08
skaetastraljava,  thanks.14:47
skaetbjf, ack,   lets see if slangasek can help when he comes on line.  (if it hasn't been done by another AA already ;) )14:48
bjfskaet: thanks, -18 was pretty bad and the sooner the better :-)14:49
skaetgotcha.14:49
ScottKskaet: The pad needs clearing up for release, but I didn't mess with it since I didn't know what needed to be saved.14:50
skaetScottK,   its got history enabled,  so feel free to clean up what you know is handled.14:51
* skaet goes to get the link, for that alternate view14:51
ScottKI didn't see what it started like for beta 2, so I'm not quite sure.14:51
skaetScottK,   are we talking the freeze pad,  or ubuntu-release pad?14:52
ScottKThe one that's in /topic.14:52
ScottKThe release one.14:52
ScottKI guess the freeze one should be there too.14:53
skaethttp://pad.ubuntu.com/ep/pad/view/ubuntu-release/latest - is history of the release images...14:53
skaetI'll clean it now,  since I'm in.14:53
ScottKThanks.14:54
skaetWe'll start using it again,  when we turn off the cron job14:54
ScottKThat would should probably have a pointer to the freeze one until then.14:54
Laneycan we get -t in here?14:54
skaetI'll put the pad for the freeze archive up in the header later today.  agree makes sense to have it handy.14:54
* skaet wondering if flooded the bot on #ubuntu-meeting... anyone seeing what I put?15:03
slangasekinfinity: yes, the .py was a symlink (so that it's importable for testing)15:03
ScottKskaet: FYI, I'll do Kubuntu since AFAIK Riddell is away.15:06
skaetthanks ScottK15:07
slangasekhey, who accepted flashplugin-nonfree?  It depends on the new version of update-manager still in the queue15:08
slangasekScottK: ?15:08
slangaseksorry, it was sloppy of me to rely on the accept being delayed until the update-notifier had gone in15:09
slangasek(update-notifier, not update-manager)15:09
ScottKslangasek: That was me.  It was unseeded multiverse, so technically not frozen.15:10
slangasekyep - as I said, sloppy of me15:10
slangasekScottK: any chance you can review u-n?  Otherwise I should do another flashplugin upload to revert15:12
slangasek(and sit on it until u-n is accepted)15:12
ScottKI'll take a look.15:12
slangasekthanks15:13
slangasekinfinity made a start of it yesterday, but he's conferencing in California so I don't expect to see him for a while yet this morning :P15:13
ScottKslangasek: Did this get an ack from translations?15:17
slangasekbjf: looking at the kernel now15:17
bjfslangasek: cool15:17
slangasekScottK: it did not; I reasoned that, since the only time anyone will see this message is in a case where the upgrade/install otherwise would have failed with an opaque error, untranslated is better than nothing.  But I can talk to them, in any case15:18
ScottKslangasek: They should be notified, but I agree it shouldn't block.15:19
* ScottK wonders how long until this cron job generates an "Ubuntu phones home" scare.15:19
slangasekheh15:21
ScottKslangasek: There are several Makefile.in that vanish in your change.  That seems a bit surprising to me.  Is that expected?15:25
slangasekScottK: hmm, it's not something I expected; let me have a closer look, it could be my screw-up or it could be a screw-up of the previous upload15:30
ScottKThanks15:33
slangasekbjf: kernel copy done15:35
slangasekScottK: btw, I think the new qt has regressed drag-and-drop in mumble; I need to muster my facts and file a bug on that15:35
bjfslangasek: thanks15:36
ScottKslangasek: OK.15:37
ScottKfabo: ^^^15:37
faboslangasek: it seems to work for me15:39
slangasekfabo: are you using unity-2d?  it's specific to unity-2d15:40
slangasekunity-2d+mumble15:40
slangasek(I took a poll)15:40
faboslangasek: ah true. I'm under KDE.15:40
slangasekplease don't spend any time on it just yet, I'm going to narrow it down a little more (restart desktop; try to downgrade qt) before filing a bug15:41
fabook15:41
slangasekScottK: beautiful; the u-n source package that was uploaded FTBFS due to missing files.  Please reject and I'll look at how that happened15:43
ScottKOK.15:43
slangaseksorry, I build-tested out of the branch, not off the .dsc15:43
slangasekah of course, bzr-builddeb hook that calls autogen.sh, and ignores missing tools :P15:44
slangasekScottK: thanks for the careful scrutiny15:44
ScottKslangasek: Done.  FWIW, from what I could tell from staring at the intended changes they seemed fine.15:44
ScottKYou're welcome.15:45
ScottKslangasek: You'll be filing a bzr-builddeb bug, right?15:45
slangasekit's a bug in update-notifier's hook (specifically, its autogen.sh), not in bzr-builddeb itself15:45
slangasekso I have to file an mvo bug15:45
ScottKOh.  OK.15:46
ScottK;-)15:46
jelmerslangasek, infinity: sorry about the multiple sync requests earlier; I hadn't realized they were being manually approved now15:51
slangasek:)15:51
jelmerI guess the past few syncs during freeze I did were just acked very very quickly15:51
slangasekfyi, looks like there'll be another apt upload soon to make rosetta happy; we had stripped headers off the .pot files in the build tree to avoid build-time timestamp skew, and now rosetta doesn't like the headerless .pot files15:57
skaetack15:57
slangasek(this is non-critical for release since the translations themselves haven't changed, so rosetta already has a perfectly good set of imported strings; but we should tidy up if possible)15:58
* skaet nods15:58

ScottKOK.  I'll look in a few minutes.16:03
slangasekthanks16:03
mdeslaurcould someone please take a look at virt-manager ^16:03
mdeslaurit's a simple regression fix for a recent patch16:03
* slangasek takes virt-manager, to rebuild some of his karma16:06
mdeslaurhehe16:06
skaet:)16:07
ScottKwaiting for it to get diffy.16:11
skaetslangasek,  in scanning the lang-packs in the queue,  they're pretty much looking like automatic updates.   Anything in particular I should be looking for other than anomolies?16:11
* skaet would like to get them through before Tuesday, when unity lands.16:12
skaetinfinity,  could you take a look at the compiz ones in the queue (GLES2 related)?   your travel plans permitting.16:15
slangasekmdeslaur: accepting, though I would note that 127.0.0.1 is not the only possible loopback address that could be affected here16:15
slangasekmdeslaur: so perhaps a more robust fix is wanted long-term16:16
slangasekskaet: language packs are always automatic updates in at least some sense; the challenge is making sure we didn't wind up with mismatched pairs of packages uploaded, such that the packs for a language become uninstallable after accept16:17
slangasekand I don't know that we have any good tools for checking this16:17
ScottKslangasek: Accepted. Don't forget about notifying translators (if you haven't already).16:18
mdeslaurslangasek: yes, I agree. upstream's logic about what's local and what's not is pretty flawed.16:18
slangasekScottK: thanks, drafting mail to ubuntu-translators now16:19
ScottKGreat.16:20
cjwatsonev: it's been on nusakan for some months, yes16:22

cjwatsonit's not a problem in current images AFAICS (from comparing livefs build logs), so don't worry about it for now.  I'll do some archaeology when I get a chance16:27
cjwatsonit was probably something to do with lubuntu being schizophrenic about whether they want recommends or not16:28

skaetslangasek, re: language packs,  ack.16:34

slangasekskaet: have set bug importances for a few on http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/reports/defects/opened, but the remaining 'undecided' ones for foundations are all duplicates of bugs that do have the importance set; I think this is a bug in the report.16:36
slangasekit even shows bugs as "new" when the master bug is "fix released"16:36
slangasekskaet: who maintains this report?  stgraber, or someone on QA?16:37
skaetslangasek,  jibel says he's just put in a fix about the duplicates.16:37
slangasekok16:37
skaetlets see how it looks after that gets applied, and then if further clean up is necessary.16:38
slangasekso that list of open defects should get a lot smaller shortly16:38
* skaet still thinks launchpad should shadow status of bugs from master to its duplicates... :P16:38
skaetthanks for looking at them slangasek.16:38
slangasekit does that for 'confirmed' status, and it's annoying as hell to get extra bug mail every time it does :-P16:38
slangasekno problem16:39
slangasekskaet: so as far as langpacks, given that the only affected images will be DVDs, I think it's best to just accept them all and look at uninstallability afterwards16:39
slangasekanything else will be a lot more effort right now for little gain16:39
skaetslangasek.  ok,  will do as soon as I get back on line.16:40

ScottKIt might be good if the maintainer field was updated in the skype packages to point at someone who still works at Canonical.17:27
infinityProbably. :P17:29
infinityskaet: You're not planning on accepting the langpacks by hand, are you?17:29
infinityskaet: I can just accept the mess in one go on ftpmaster.17:30
skaetinfinity,   was planning on going through them as education for me mostly.17:30
skaetnot a big overhead really.17:30
infinityThat way lies madness.17:30
skaetlol17:30
infinityManually auditing packages that are auto-generated (several hundred of them!) sounds like masoshism.17:31
infinitymasochism, too.17:31
infinityTyping hard.17:31
skaetI was planning on looking at about 20-30 to get feel for pattern, then applying a bulk operation.17:32
* skaet is not that much of a masochist17:32
infinityYou can't do them in bulk by more than a few at t atime.17:32
infinityWeb UI will timeout.17:32

ScottKGreat.17:37
slangasekand yes, we should update the maintainer field; though I think I'll hold off on doing that until we have a permanent maintainer for it :P17:38
ScottKslangasek: How about making a role address that can be pointed to whomever when they show up.17:38
slangasekwell, ideally the role address is "file a bug against the package in launchpad"17:39
slangaseksince https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/skype will continue to work17:39
ScottKWe still have maintainer address.17:39
ScottKpartner-packaging@canonical.com17:40
slangasekthere are many packages in partner which (now) each have different maintainers; creating a catch-all role address isn't going to make mailing the maintainer a more useful operation17:41
slangasekany more than mailing ubuntu-devel about a package in universe is17:41

cndskaet, I have a potential random corruption bug fix in bug 975356 for xorg-server19:06
ubot2Launchpad bug 975356 in xorg-server "Logging from signal context is unsafe" [Medium,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/97535619:06
cndwe are building a test package in a ppa and will ask some people to test it out19:06
cndbut if all goes well I would like to get it in before final freeze19:06
cndat this point, I'm just noting it for your reference19:07
skaetthanks cnd.    getting rid of random corruptions would be good.    want to avoid it landing with some things though.19:08
skaetso timing it in may be needed.19:10
skaetwhen fix is ready,  start the conversation off, and we'll figure out the best spot.19:10
cndok19:28
superm1skaet: when you get a chance, can you help review the myth* packages in unapproved, specifically the ones that should help bring our ISO size down (mythbuntu-live-autostart, mythbuntu-meta, mythbuntu-default-settings)?  was hoping to get at least those in for the next ISO spin to see if that's enough to get us back within limits.  the others are less critical to be reviewed before next ISO spin19:28
skaetsuperm1,  in a meeting, but will do it right after.19:35
superm1thanks!19:36

cjwatsonit's not the packages, and we've seen it before, but not debugged20:48
ScottKOK.  Just retry them then?20:48
cjwatsonthe solution is to get a webops to remove the chroot filecache and then retry20:48
cjwatsonunfortunately I'm not sure there are any webops around over the Easter weekend ...20:48
cjwatsonwell20:49
cjwatsonif you retry and manage to get a different builder, that would work too20:49
cjwatsonare they all the same builder?  I could disable the busted one.20:49
ScottKThey are all nasl20:50
ScottKIf you could do that, it would help.20:50

* cjwatson checks for more in the API20:56
cjwatsonI see 148 ...20:57
ScottKOuch.20:57
cjwatsonlet me just sanity-check that20:58
ScottKI was using http://qa.ubuntuwire.org/ftbfs/ which lags, so I probably just saw the first few.20:58
cjwatsonbroken builders can fail lots of builds very quickly20:58
cjwatsonI'd like to check that they're all nasl; the API doesn't tell me the builder so I'll have to quickly screen-scrape I think20:58
ScottKProbably many of those are from the rebuild.20:59
cjwatsonI'm only checking in the rebuild20:59
cjwatsonalready checked the primary archive20:59
ScottKok20:59

slangasek^^ flashplugin-nonfree fixes a major regression in this morning's upload; evidently there was a latent bug in the update-alternatives handling that didn't show up on upgrades (bug #975426), so I'd appreciate having that reviewed asap21:46
ubot2Launchpad bug 975426 in flashplugin-nonfree "flashplugin-installer failed to install during system installation: no alternatives for mozilla-flashplugin." [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/97542621:46

phillwslangasek: I've been following... 11.2.202.228ubuntu1  /  11.2.202.228ubuntu3 the same release as I grabbed from http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/?no_redirect and installed via Alien?21:55
* slangasek self-accepts :P21:55
slangasekphillw: I don't know21:56
slangasekit probably is, but why would you use alien for this when it's packaged in multiverse+partner :)21:56
phillwslangasek: because I did not know it was & used https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats21:57
phillwso, some modifcations are required if you have moved things :)21:58
slangasekphillw: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash "install Flash by going to the Ubuntu Software Center"?21:59
phillwslangasek: my very little tiny voice... but https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats is the better apge?21:59
phillws/apge/page22:00
slangasekphillw: the only mention I see of flash on there is a pointer to the subpage :)22:00

phillwone click links :)22:01
infinityI still see no mention there of alien...22:02
phillwinfinity: there is none.22:02
phillwthe links used to work22:02
phillwI'm told that flash has moved repos?22:03
slangasekno, it hasn't22:05
infinityphillw: flashplugin-nonfree has been in multiverse for most (if not all) of the history of Ubuntu.22:05
hallynjust popped in to make sure someone (daviey?) knows about bug 97524022:06
ubot2Launchpad bug 975240 in qemu-kvm "unaccelerated qemu is broken" [Critical,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/97524022:06
phillwhmm, not really sure then. I'll reboot from a beta 2 system, but am sure flash is not available by default & needs an extra repo.22:07
Davieyhallyn: How about we fix bugs, rather than discover them :P.... Thanks for rasing, tracking.22:08
Davieyphillw: It used to be in partner aswell..22:09
* Laney points Daviey at bug #970782 :P22:09
cjwatsonAt least as of Ubuntu 7.04, when we enabled multiverse by default, there's been some way to install Flash in packaged form by default.22:09
ubot2Launchpad bug 970782 in dovecot "[FFe] Please upgrade dovecot to version 2.0.19" [Medium,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/97078222:09
cjwatson(And even before that I think there may have been some scheme to enable it when you asked for Flash.  I forget.)22:10
phillwcjwatson: infinity so, is there a way for https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats to work in 12,04?22:11
cjwatsonI don't really understand why they wouldn't already.22:12
cjwatsonThe link is to apt:ubuntu-restricted-extras; ubuntu-restricted-extras Depends: ubuntu-restricted-addons Recommends: adobe-flashplugin | flashplugin-installer22:13
DavieyLaney: jamespage has been working on a diff for that.. I'm not going to sponsor it, but have some follow up questions.. The earliest I expect to catch him is Monday, or Tuesday.  I'll disucss with him, before approving.22:13
cjwatsonThe repository containing adobe-flashplugin isn't enabled by default, but the repository containing flashplugin-installer (and everything else there) is.22:13
cjwatsonUnless there's some multiarch problem on amd64, I suppose.22:14
phillwcjwatson: Okies, I'll boot up my 12.04 beta CD and double check, but it will be tomorrow.... bed time calls :)22:14
LaneyDaviey: huh, OK, I thought it was ready since there's a branch.22:14
Laneyand a build log22:14
phillwthe chatter is that it does not work.22:14
cjwatsonOn amd64 I believe the dependency is just on flashplugin-installer.22:15
cjwatsonThe chatter needs to be accompanied by logs :-)22:15
DavieyLaney: Yeah, a branch without a MP doesn't show compelte intent IMO.  Thereofre, not happy to sponsor it in his absence.22:15
phillwcjwatson: that is what I am here for :)22:15
Laneyas you wish22:15
Laneyit keeps catching my eye22:15
DavieyLaney: it's on my radar now.. sorry for missing it.22:16
slangasekphillw: it is available, exactly as that page says, by installing the ubuntu-restricted-extras package; this requires only the multiverse repository and a network connection.22:18
slangasekin fact, people installing the ubuntu-restricted-extras package at install time and hitting a bug with the flash package is *why* I just mentioned it...22:19
jbichaphillw: this page works too https://help.ubuntu.com/11.10/ubuntu-help/net-install-flash.html22:19
phillwslangasek: thanks, what needs adding to that page to get people to add multiverse?22:23
DavieyLaney: I'm actually happy with it, but i'd still like to check with james.. If you are keener, i wouldn't be upset if you sponsored :)22:23
cjwatsonphillw: nothing, it's enabled by default22:24
cjwatsonhas been since 7.0422:24
LaneyDaviey: I can't sponsor it, and I'm trying to shy away from thinking about the FFe (hence the ping :P)22:24
cjwatsonfurthermore, even if it weren't enabled by default, the form of that link is such that it ought to get enabled when the link is activated22:25
cjwatson(or enabled for that package only, whatever the exact semantics are, I forget - but in any case it's moot since multiverse is on by default)22:25
phillwcjwatson:  I'll go back to the chatter & try and formulate a bug as to why it is not working. As ever, thanks for the information.22:25
cjwatsonsure - not trying to say there's no problem, just that, whatever it is, I think it's unlikely that the fix is to change the documentation22:27
slangasekwell again, depending on when you were hearing this chatter, you may be talking about the bug that was just fixed22:28
cjwatsonyep22:29
cjwatsonurgh, autopkgtest + LP test suite == laptop running like molasses22:36
