| psusi | this bug report has a script error on line 11 saying splash not found... I noticed that the double quotes around "quiet splash" appear to be slanted... what's up with that? https://launchpadlibrarian.net/105554324/EtcDefaultGrub.txt | 02:54 |
| psusi | I didn't think there was such a thing, but they appear different than the rest of the quotes in the file, and based on the error message about splash not found, it seems like the shell is treating those funny double quotes like backticks and trying to execute the contents | 02:54 |
| psusi | is there such a thing as slanty double quotes that the shell interprets like backticks? | 02:56 |
| lifeless | psusi: they are unicode quotes, not ascii | 02:56 |
| infinity | psusi: Looks like someone's edited that in a fancy editor or word processor that wanted to use the unicode quotation marks instead of just using the ascii. | 02:56 |
| lifeless | someone has messed the file up | 02:56 |
| lifeless | the bug therefor is arguably that there is no vigrub command to detect such issues | 02:57 |
| StevenK | vigrub is a slippery slope | 02:57 |

| pitti | thanks micahg | 06:00 |
| angeloc | pitti, i'm porting quickly to qt4 and qtquick and i spotted a wrong dependency in the building process! | 06:00 |
| angeloc | pitti: can I ask you help with bug 993867? | 06:01 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 993867 in xoscope (Ubuntu) "Xoscope package lacks pulseaudio-esound-compat as dependency" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/993867 | 06:01 |
| angeloc | pitti, i'm looking for sponshorship | 06:01 |
| pitti | angeloc: urgh, there are still packages out there which speak esound? | 06:02 |
| angeloc | pitti, xoscope is really an ancient package! it' uses esound compat to talk to pulseaudio | 06:02 |
| angeloc | pitti, so in the end it uses pulseaudio | 06:03 |
| pitti | angeloc: yes, I mean protocol wise | 06:03 |
| pitti | angeloc: you set up an SRU description, so I'll upload to quantal and precise-proposed | 06:03 |
| pitti | ok? | 06:03 |
| angeloc | pitti, yes, i'm investigating rewriting the software for pulseaudio, but the code is quite difficult to understand | 06:04 |
| pitti | angeloc: BTW, if you want to do package fixes regularly, can you please add corresponding changelog entries? (dch is a nice tool for that) | 06:04 |
| angeloc | pitti, yes, i can really enjoin the bug will be fixed also in precise | 06:04 |
| angeloc | pitti, i'm new in sru process, so please be patient! | 06:04 |
| pitti | angeloc: oh, changelogs are not SRU speciifc | 06:05 |
| pitti | angeloc: anyway, I'll add it for you | 06:05 |
| pitti | angeloc: do you know how to forward a fix to Debian? | 06:05 |
| angeloc | pitti, weel no, i fixed another bug in xoscope and i think that debian will benefit both | 06:05 |
| angeloc | pitti, i'm intrested in learning the sru process, can I fix the branch myself? | 06:06 |
| pitti | angeloc: there is nothing to fix for the SRU part | 06:06 |
| angeloc | pitti, adding a changelog i mean | 06:06 |
| pitti | angeloc: oh, sure | 06:06 |
| pitti | angeloc: use "dch", document the change, and then use "debcommit" to commit that change; then push again | 06:06 |
| * pitti reverts his local changelog and waits for your's | 06:07 | |
| angeloc | pitti, i have to use -i flag to increase version number right? | 06:08 |
| pitti | angeloc: FYI, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Debian/Bugs has the documentation how to forward bugs to Debian | 06:08 |
| pitti | angeloc: ah, that could be; I have configured dch to do that automatically for ages, so I forgot about it | 06:08 |
| angeloc | pitti, yes i read the documentation, but using debian bug tracking is really a pain | 06:09 |
| pitti | angeloc: either way, it needs to create a new changelog record, not append to the already existing one | 06:09 |
| angeloc | pitti, last changelog entry shows debian/patches/99-esd_pa_fixes.patch, this time i have no a patch like this, i'll have to create one? | 06:10 |
| pitti | angeloc: if you modify the source, yes; you can't modify it directly | 06:10 |
| pitti | angeloc: since you are working on another change, I propose I'll wait for that with the upload instead of uploading twice? | 06:11 |
| angeloc | pitti, cannot understand, i branched quantal/xoscope and fixed debian/changelog, which step i have to do now? making a debian patch? | 06:12 |
| angeloc | pitti, i have only one patch | 06:13 |
| pitti | angeloc: err, wait; what are we talking about now? | 06:13 |
| pitti | angeloc: adding the missing changelog entry for your esound-compat addition, or the other fix you said you were working on? | 06:13 |
| pitti | angeloc: you don't want to add the changelog entry to quantal/xoscope, but to lp:~angeloc/ubuntu/quantal/xoscope/fix-for-993867 | 06:14 |
| angeloc | pitti, there is only a patch for xoscope now (esd-compat), the other patch was accepted in precise at least five moths ago | 06:14 |
| pitti | angeloc: ah; this has nothing to do with debian/patches/ then | 06:14 |
| pitti | angeloc: just do dch -i, describe the change, and debcommit/bzr push that to your branch | 06:15 |
| angeloc | pitti, ok, but for the least patch i made, a patch pilot like you created debian/patches/99-esd_pa_fixes.patch, i have to creat one for this patch right now? | 06:15 |
| pitti | angeloc: why do you need a patch? You only add the dependency, you don't change any source code | 06:16 |
| angeloc | pitti, ok, that's right! adding changelog with dhc ... | 06:16 |
| angeloc | pitti, done | 06:21 |
| pitti | angeloc: uploaded to quantal and precise-proposed, thanks! | 06:30 |
| angeloc | pitti, wow! | 06:30 |
| pitti | angeloc: note that the -proposed upload will hang in a review queue and needs to be accepted by the SRU team first | 06:30 |

| ubottu | Launchpad bug 937522 in remmina (Ubuntu) "rdp clipboard sync doesn't work anymore." [Undecided,Confirmed] | 08:34 |
| pitti | tseliot: should nvidia-current and friends depend on nvidia-common? (or soon ubuntu-drivers-common) | 08:35 |
| pitti | dupondje: can you please forward this to upstream? | 08:36 |
| pitti | dupondje: I can review it then | 08:36 |
| dupondje | pitti: its commited upstream already | 08:37 |
| pitti | oh, nice | 08:37 |
| dupondje | Tested it some time, made a ppa version of it also to let other people test it :) | 08:38 |
| pitti | dupondje: sponsoring now, thanks! | 08:38 |
| dupondje | great! | 08:39 |
| tseliot | pitti: good morning to you. Yes, it's probably a good idea to make it depend on nvidia-common | 08:39 |
| pitti | tseliot: I'm asking because presumably the postinsts should set/update the alternatives? | 08:40 |
| tseliot | pitti: the postinst of the nvidia drivers already do that | 08:40 |
| pitti | also, the packages should conflict to each other, to prevent that you install multiple versions at the same time and then don't know which one actually gets used? | 08:41 |
| tseliot | pitti: shouldn't the driver manager tell you that? | 08:41 |
| tseliot | i.e. jockey or whatever replaces it | 08:42 |
| pitti | tseliot: yes, but only if you actually use that | 08:42 |
| dupondje | pitti: SRU it also or not important enough? | 08:42 |
| vibhav | good morning | 08:42 |
| pitti | tseliot: if you install it in software-center or via apt, there won't be anything to update them | 08:42 |
| pitti | dupondje: your call; sounds fine to me for an SRU | 08:42 |
| tseliot | pitti: the only way to know for sure is to call update-alternatives | 08:42 |
| pitti | tseliot: is there any chance we could drop the alternatives? they have caused us so much trouble, with packages not working or failing to install, etc. | 08:43 |
| pitti | we get bug reports to no end | 08:43 |
| dupondje | pitti: SRU then :) clipboard is a good to have thing :) | 08:43 |
| tseliot | pitti: no, I don't think so. Diversions were even worse... | 08:44 |
| * tseliot still has nightmares about diversions... | 08:44 | |
| pitti | dupondje: done | 08:44 |
| dupondje | thcx | 08:45 |
| pitti | tseliot: I'd like to start on implementing the spec now, with renaming the package and adding the packagekit/aptdaemon plugins | 08:45 |
| dupondje | now lets fix the other 100 bugs in Remmina :P | 08:45 |
| pitti | tseliot: do you keep this in a particular Vcs, or just lp:ubuntu/nvidia-common? | 08:45 |
| tseliot | pitti: there's a git repository. Let me check if it's updated | 08:46 |
| infinity | pitti: Weird, then, that I can find ddebs for libc6, but not nscd, despite the build log showing nscd.ddeb being genrated. | 08:47 |

| seb128 | infinity, pitti: not sure but could it be that the ddeb retriever doesn't like sources with binary in both main and universe? I think I saw issue with those before | 08:49 |
| pitti | seb128, infinity: it's not inherently built to ignore those (it doesn't consider Sources.gz), but there might very well be a bug there | 08:50 |
| pitti | but AFAIR we soon want to switch it to fetching ddebs from launchpad instead of the http servers, so I won't bother debugging this now | 08:51 |
| seb128 | \o/ | 08:51 |
| seb128 | (on fetching ddebs from launchpad) | 08:51 |
| pitti | tseliot: can you rename projects in github, or only create a new one and delete the old? | 08:53 |
| infinity | pitti: Yeah, remind me on Tuesday (I have Monday off) to get back to testing the current state of ddebs in LP. | 08:53 |
| * pitti reminds infinity that it is Monday | 08:53 | |
| infinity | Only barely, for me. :P | 08:54 |

| tseliot | pitti: I'll have to port all of the code to python 3 (it should be trivial to do) and finally upload xkit's python 3 port (since nvidia-common depends on it) | 08:59 |
| tseliot | pitti: if need these ASAP, just let me know and I'll focus on them | 09:00 |
| pitti | tseliot: not that urgent; I'll make sure that the new code (jockey replacement) works with 3 | 09:00 |
| tseliot | pitti: ok | 09:01 |
| pitti | tseliot: hm, AFAICS the "nvidia-common" script is not installed anywhere; is that a bug, or is it just obsolete? | 09:12 |
| pitti | tseliot: the one which calls nvidia-detector and shows the "obsolete-driver" debconf note | 09:12 |
| tseliot | pitti: the debconf interface is disabled and, from what I can see, we don't shipt that script any more. Feel free to remove it | 09:13 |
| pitti | ok | 09:13 |
| pitti | tseliot: I'll leave it for now with the nvidia -> ubuntu-drivers renaming, I was just wondering whether I was missing something | 09:14 |

| cjwatson | ah, it wasn't even in bzr anywhere visible when I looked | 10:36 |
| tseliot | cjwatson: I guess it's a good time to fix the packaging and uploading it in quantal. I guess I'll have to provide python2.x libraries for the apps that still depend on it | 10:36 |
| tseliot | cjwatson: no, sorry, it's in a local branch of mine | 10:36 |
| cjwatson | my branch is lp:~cjwatson/xorgparser/python3 if that's of any interest; the same code should work in both 2 and 3 so providing libraries for both would be trivial | 10:36 |

| cjwatson | live-build's docs are fairly decent, depending on how consistent you want to be with the Ubuntu defaults; for that you need to RTFS in livecd-rootfs (live-build/auto/*) | 14:12 |

| Laney | is that really the best use of their time? | 15:13 |
| xnox | dholbach: was the 'different solution' in actual fact the first workitem - as in it should be community led sru-team that is to be revived? | 15:13 |

| jdstrand | barry: thanks. one other question. assuming I am able to get the source for a package to work with either python2 or python3, would I be able to have a single binary that could be installed with either? eg, ufw on the desktop works with python3, but ufw on the server works with python2 | 16:49 |
| jdstrand | barry: but it is the same binary (obviously installing all the /usr/lib/python*/dist-packages/ufw/* bits for both 2.7 and 3.2) | 16:50 |
| cjwatson | why shouldn't ufw on the server be made to work with python3? | 16:52 |
| jdstrand | cjwatson: it very well can. I didn't know if python3 would necessarily be on the server (or minimal, etc) | 16:52 |
| cjwatson | any given binary has to have one or the other in its #! line | 16:52 |
| cjwatson | you can preprocess it of course to use a different one, but that'd mean two packages just for the binary | 16:52 |
| jdstrand | I would like to avoid two packages for the binary | 16:53 |
| cjwatson | I suspect we're going to end up converting server bits as a result of converting desktop bits | 16:53 |
| === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk | ||
| jdstrand | I am currentyly using /usr/bin/python | 16:53 |
| jdstrand | so in that regard it should all just work. I just wanted to make sure there wasn't some packaging requirement that I must have 2 binaries if I am to support both python2 and python3 (it wasn't clear to me from the blog entries barry did) | 16:54 |
| cjwatson | I believe our general plan is that most modules ought to support both for a period, but binaries should pick one | 16:55 |
| cjwatson | er, programs | 16:55 |
| jdstrand | cjwatson: it might just be an answer to this question: will python3 be on the server cd? | 16:55 |
| cjwatson | it will be exceedingly difficult, if not downright impossible, to meet the goal of having only python3 on the desktop CD without also having python3 on the server CD | 16:56 |
| jdstrand | (as upstream, I want to support 2.6 and higher (at least), but as the package for Ubuntu/Debian, I can choose) | 16:56 |
| cjwatson | you might as well assume it'll be there | 16:56 |
| jdstrand | ok | 16:57 |
| jdstrand | if it isn't, we can revisit | 16:57 |
| jdstrand | cjwatson: thanks | 16:57 |
| jdstrand | barry: cjwatson fielded my question | 16:57 |
| * Daviey doesn't expect server's largest consumer of python (openstack) to be py3 compliant this cycle. | 16:58 | |
| * jdstrand remembered something about that | 16:58 | |
| cjwatson | Then you are likely to end up with both, I'm afraid | 16:59 |
| Daviey | i suspect for this cycle, that makes sense. | 16:59 |
| cjwatson | There's enough stuff in the core that uses Python that it's not practical for us to permit flavours to choose entirely-python2 vs. entirely-python3 | 16:59 |
| Daviey | agreed | 16:59 |
| dobey | i suspect we won't be able to make it to 100% py3 this cycle, though maybe close to 80-90% | 17:00 |

| slangasek | xnox: are these installed in /etc/udev/rules.d, or /lib/udev/rules.d? | 22:59 |
| xnox | slangasek: in the .deb there is /lib/udev/rules.d/[65|85]*.rules in the .udeb there is /[etc|lib]/udev/rules.d/*.rules | 23:01 |
| slangasek | hmm, interesting | 23:01 |
| xnox | .udeb should be ok, no migration path | 23:01 |
| slangasek | right | 23:01 |
| xnox | but the 65/85 becoming a better 64 might need magic to purge from /etc/udev/rules.d/, but that may end-up in droping user config | 23:02 |
| slangasek | xnox: so I understand from kees that one of the consequences of this is that we do actually have incremental mode enabled even though Debian doesn't - right? | 23:02 |
| xnox | true | 23:02 |
| slangasek | well, unless there's a version of the package that shipped the rules under /etc, I don't think we need to worry about migrations there | 23:02 |
| xnox | ok. But if users customized 65/85 will their config get dropped or still applied on top of ours? | 23:03 |
| kees | if a rule exists in /etc it is ignored in /lib | 23:03 |
| kees | (but have exactly the same filename) | 23:04 |
| slangasek | correct... but if they're under different filenames, which order are they applied in? | 23:04 |
| slangasek | are they interleaved by number? | 23:04 |
| kees | both are merged into lexical order | 23:04 |
| * slangasek nods | 23:04 | |
| xnox | I was thinking to rename /etc/[65|85 | 23:04 |
| xnox | ] to *.rules.dpkg-disabled | 23:05 |
| slangasek | I wouldn't, if those files have never been owned by the package | 23:05 |
| xnox | or something ;-) | 23:05 |
| slangasek | are you concerned that running both our rule and the user's rule will break things? | 23:05 |
| xnox | ok. | 23:05 |
| kees | xnox: there shouldn't be anything in /etc | 23:05 |
| slangasek | Frankly, I think overriding the system rules by shadowing the file in /etc is a weird thing to do | 23:05 |
| kees | xnox: what's your plan? you're going to remove debian/mdadm.udev (85-...) and use the shipped 64-... without the "disable incremental" patch? | 23:06 |
| slangasek | I would expect users to *add* rules under different names, not try to override the stock ones | 23:06 |

| kees | xnox: to which? | 23:07 |
| kees | 1.2? | 23:07 |
| slangasek | xnox: so worst case is that it takes a little longer to run the rules for this device because the same commands are run twice, right? | 23:07 |
| * xnox needs checking | 23:07 | |
| slangasek | that's not worth risking disabling other kinds of customization for | 23:07 |
| xnox | slangasek: true. | 23:07 |
| kees | the 2TB limit on the 0.90 version is reason enough to switch the default, IMO. | 23:07 |
| xnox | slangasek: the only worry, if users explicitly desiabled the whole rule, to for example *not* automount raids at boot, but now we will... | 23:08 |
| xnox | because we renamed the rule | 23:08 |
| slangasek | heh... /me thinks we should probably get some integration tests in place before we change the default superblock format | 23:08 |
| cjwatson | wow, I thought we'd taken a default change ages ago | 23:08 |
| slangasek | xnox: automount, or auto-assemble? | 23:09 |
| kees | xnox: I think that's enough of a corner-case it's not a problem | 23:09 |
| * xnox needs checking. kees wrote up that we still have old 0.90, but debian switched to newer format, I'm still digging through the package diff. Way to many spurious changes and no udd. | 23:09 | |
| xnox | kees: ok. | 23:10 |
| xnox | slangasek: good point. I think auto-assemble. | 23:11 |
| xnox | but will check. | 23:11 |
| slangasek | xnox: yeah... I guess it's possible users might do that, but I think it's too hard to get the handling right to deal with this automatically | 23:12 |
| kees | xnox: looks like precise has the new format | 23:13 |
| xnox | kees: can't wait for all the LTS users to upgrade | 23:13 |

| Bluefoxicy | ha-HA! | 23:23 |
| Bluefoxicy | I wrote an init script that creates as many zram devices as CPUs, creates a device mapper striped RAID across them, and creates swap on that :D | 23:23 |
| Bluefoxicy | (it's hideous) | 23:24 |
| xnox | Bluefoxicy: as long as you did not use [64|65|85] | 23:24 |
| xnox | -raid.rules | 23:24 |
| xnox | name for the udev, I'm fine | 23:24 |
| Bluefoxicy | nah | 23:24 |
| xnox | good | 23:24 |
| Bluefoxicy | I need to clean this up. | 23:25 |
| Bluefoxicy | Multi-thread works like this: | 23:25 |
| Bluefoxicy | - Is MULTITHREAD==1? | 23:25 |
| Bluefoxicy | Yes: - Do we have exactly 1 CPU? | 23:25 |
| Bluefoxicy | Yes: MULTITHREAD=0 | 23:25 |
| Bluefoxicy | xnox: http://pastebin.com/RFrTunUP if you're curious :P | 23:38 |
| Bluefoxicy | I should find the script that sets up zswap in casper and make a patch that does this. | 23:39 |
| Bluefoxicy | well, not sure. I'm not sure how Linux swaps or if this is the better way to do it. | 23:40 |
| Bluefoxicy | in theory, if Linux swaps in individual pages, this is horrible (tbh, it'd be fantastic if I could make CHUNK_SIZE less than PAGE_SIZE) | 23:41 |
| Bluefoxicy | if it swaps out in bigger chunks (say 4, 8, 16 pages at once), and device mapper writes it all in parallel, this is great. | 23:41 |
| Bluefoxicy | The other way to do this is to load multiple swap devices with the same priority | 23:42 |
| Bluefoxicy | in which case linux will auto-balance, though again it becomes a question of how (per-page balancing, per-swap balancing, even use, or just move from one to the next if a swap is in process on the first?) | 23:43 |
| Bluefoxicy | THAT method would be great if it balanced via even use per-page, i.e. if it swaps 16K across 4 devices it swaps 4k and 4k and 4k and 4k all at once | 23:44 |
| Bluefoxicy | wot a mess. The real solution is to multi-thread zswap inherently and use lz4 | 23:45 |
