| ScottK | SpamapS: Thanks for fixing mysql-5.5 sufficiently that I'm not required to care anymore. | 02:54 |
| infinity | ScottK: Thanks for fixing cython, and congrats on cleverly avoiding TILM by puppeting Ben. :P | 02:55 |
| ScottK | I actually managed to not do any work on it at all. | 02:55 |
| ScottK | Major victory. | 02:55 |
| ScottK | Mission accomplished by whining. | 02:55 |
| infinity | ScottK: Ahh, he misattributed the patch. I'm sure jtaylor is crushed. | 02:56 |
| ScottK | I didn't get get the barry card. He was going to look at it tomorrow, but now he doesn't have to. | 02:56 |
| ScottK | Yeah. | 02:56 |
| ScottK | I mentioned it in the bug. | 02:56 |
| infinity | All that hard work changing four lines. ;) | 02:56 |
| ScottK | The work avoided by not being TIL is potentially infinite. | 02:56 |
| infinity | Heh. | 02:57 |
| micahg | and I already had all that except for cython-dbg in debian/rules | 02:57 |
| ScottK | jtaylor should be happy though. Now he can apply guilt on BenC when he wants a core-dev endorsement. | 02:57 |
| infinity | Ben's immune to guilt. | 02:58 |
| infinity | He does respond well to nicotine and cartoons, however. | 02:58 |
| BenC | and jaeger | 02:58 |
| BenC | Combinations of the three in creative ways are welcome | 02:59 |
| infinity | Heh. | 02:59 |
| infinity | BenC: You really need to come hang out at some conferency gathering soon. Haven't seen you in ages. | 02:59 |
| BenC | infinity: I tried to get to quantal UDS but it didn't work out. I am 94.7% sure I will make UDS-R though | 03:00 |
| ScottK | I hope the hold it in some place cool enough that I'll feel like it's worth wanting to go. | 03:01 |
| ScottK | I mean Oakland? | 03:01 |

| BenC | Will give BoF a new meaning | 03:02 |
| * micahg wonders what interesting locations there are | 03:03 | |
| StevenK | I'd say Sydney, but infinity would stab me. | 03:04 |
| infinity | We've been. | 03:04 |
| StevenK | Only once. UDS has been in *Florida* more than that. | 03:04 |
| infinity | It's also hideously expensive to do anything other than Europe or North America. | 03:05 |
| infinity | StevenK: Yeah, and Florida was a mistake every time. :P | 03:05 |
| ScottK | Boston was nice. | 03:05 |
| StevenK | Florida was slightly better than Dallas. | 03:05 |
| infinity | UDU (Sydney) was actually pretty good. The hotel was fun, etc. But that was back when the distro team was 15 people. | 03:06 |
| ScottK | Yes. | 03:06 |
| infinity | Cool little venues like that don't work anymore. :( | 03:06 |
| infinity | And Sydney's large conference venues are just as soulless as anyone's. | 03:06 |
| ajmitch | but they're closer for some of us | 03:06 |
| infinity | Not many of us. :P | 03:06 |
| ScottK | Chicago would be fun for a US location. | 03:06 |
| micahg | \o/ | 03:06 |
| StevenK | ScottK: I'd like to see Chicago, actually. | 03:07 |
| infinity | If it didn't come right back around to the "hideously expensive" point, I'd vote for Manhattan. | 03:07 |
| micahg | infinity: they managed DebConf there somehow | 03:07 |
| infinity | micahg: Yeah, but DebConf doesn't mind begging universities for lecture halls. | 03:07 |
| infinity | micahg: We annex entire conference centers. | 03:07 |
| ScottK | Precisely. | 03:08 |
| infinity | micahg: Those don't come cheaply. | 03:08 |
| ScottK | Except in Florida. There they are so huge we only get a little piece of one. | 03:08 |
| infinity | ScottK: Heh. | 03:08 |
| ScottK | I've never been to Warsaw. How would that be? | 03:08 |
| infinity | Bleak. | 03:08 |
| infinity | Culturally awesome, love the people, the music, the food. But man, the architecture makes me want to stab myself repeatedly. | 03:09 |
| ScottK | Are you arguing for or against? | 03:09 |
| infinity | I'm not sure. ;) | 03:09 |
| ScottK | That's just good street theater for some. | 03:10 |
| infinity | I actually pretty much never say no to former Eastern Block sorts of locations. | 03:10 |
| infinity | Cheap beer, fun people, an inexplicable obsession with doilies. | 03:11 |

| pitti | Good morning | 03:59 |
| pitti | barry: yes, foomatic-db-compressed-ppds py3 is in the archive; I keep my WIs as "in progress" until they are really in ubuntu | 03:59 |
| pitti | cjwatson: u-d-common> my new code is py3 compatible, but the old nvidia-common bits are not; tseliot is on that (he ported python-xkit, which is a dependency) | 04:00 |
| pitti | barry: apport got binNEWed, so the py3 version is in quantal now | 04:07 |
| geser | vibhav: yes, I'm now here | 06:50 |
| pitti | cjwatson: further porting u-d-common is yet another case of "blocked by aptdaemon" | 07:01 |
| pitti | once we get that in, we can port apturl, language-selector, u-d-common, software-properties, etc. | 07:01 |
| ScottK | I got slightly lost trying to figure out why dnspython is in Main and if any python3 porting was blocked on it. I just uploaded dnspython3 to Debian. If lack of that is blocking anything, please let me know and I'll do a direct upload to Ubuntu too. | 07:02 |
| dholbach | good morning | 07:05 |
| cjwatson | pitti: Yeah, it's the nvidia bits that matter here. | 07:09 |
| cjwatson | pitti: aptdaemon is, I hear, very close | 07:10 |
| pitti | yes, it's by and large working in trunk | 07:10 |
| pitti | the new apt is through binNEW now, I thought that was a prerequisite | 07:11 |

| pitti | cjwatson: do you know if anyone already discussed extending DEP-8 to add a source package header? (like "XS-Has-Tests: true"); if not, I'll do that now | 07:23 |
| pitti | once that's in the standard, we could make dpkg-source add that header automatically | 07:24 |
| pitti | but at least add it manually for the time being, to drop the hardcoded list from jenkins | 07:24 |
| cjwatson | pitti: We talked about it and I was going to propose it, but I don't think I actually did formally (I may have spoken to Ian about it informally); if you'd like to bring it up on wherever the discussion list for DEP-8 is, feel free | 07:26 |

| seb128 | RAOF, I share the sentiment, though some people already things that having to provide a debdiff is work they shouldn't need to do, especially some upstream would like to be able to point to a patch and have us to take it... | 08:18 |

| smoser | anyone know... lp:debian/sid/euca2ools is out of date. i'm not accustomed to that happening for debian, but usually only after i've screwed something up in the lp:ubuntu branch. | 13:30 |
| smoser | how can i get my local branch of lp:debian/sid/euca2ools updated? is there an easy way to suck in the debian package? | 13:31 |

| mterry | mvo, does update-manager not use code reviews? Should I just be committing directly? | 13:36 |

| pitti | xnox: I'm currently running: PYTHONPATH=.:~/upstream/aptdaemon python3 tests/run | 14:05 |
| smb | pitti, doko, While trying to fix up something which gcc-4.7 is more picky about, I noticed that running the same package compile with precise will invoke gcc with some additional options which look a bit like hardening (-fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -Wformat -Wformat-security). In quantal those are not there. Just wondered whether that is expected... | 14:05 |
| pitti | xnox: aside from the PackageKit failures I also get some errors from the quirk reader | 14:06 |
| xnox | pitti: hmm I will look | 14:06 |
| xnox | pitti: i was running tests with $ python3 -m unittest discover | 14:06 |
| xnox | with extra flags | 14:06 |
| xnox | pitti: why are tests files *not* called tests/test_*.py ? | 14:07 |
| pitti | xnox: no particular reason, I guess; tests/run doesn't care | 14:07 |
| xnox | pitti: it looks like tests/run has been modified to filter out settings.py and other stuff | 14:07 |
| pitti | xnox: also, with your merge the tests now fail | 14:08 |
| * xnox generally doesn't like tests/run scripts. It should IMHO just work with unittest discover runner | 14:08 | |

| infinity | pitti: Were you planning on adding those new symbols to Debian's cups at some point soon, or should we just fix it in Ubuntu to get it off our radar? | 14:13 |
| pitti | infinity: it's already fixed in Debian's bzr | 14:13 |
| pitti | infinity: I have another RC bug I need to fix, then I wanted to do another upload | 14:13 |
| infinity | pitti: Ahh, kay. | 14:14 |
| pitti | xnox: pushed two fixes to trunk which should be better again; tests now work again with py2, and the imports should be fine for py3 as well (PYTHONPATH=. python3 ./quirks-handler) | 14:15 |
| xnox | pitti: thank you. I will check them out. | 14:15 |
| pitti | xnox: I also pushed a fallback for packagekit.enums, but that's again blocked on aptdaemon (just tested against upstream trunk, can't change the Depends: yet) | 14:16 |

| infinity | rsalveti: (See callibra in quantal, grep the log for 'conflicting declaration') | 14:18 |
| xnox | pitti: that doesn't have packagekit, or does it? | 14:20 |
| xnox | pitti: there was more work done on the aptdaemon | 14:20 |
| xnox | after the ppa | 14:20 |
| pitti | xnox: no, I doubt that packagekit has been ported already | 14:20 |
| pitti | xnox: argh; ignore me | 14:20 |
| pitti | xnox: I got confused | 14:20 |
| xnox | pitti: it has been upstream. well the python-packagekit | 14:20 |
| xnox | not all the helper scripts | 14:21 |
| pitti | xnox: u-d-common falls back to aptdaemon.pkenum for now (as that is already available in aptdaemon, but we haven't had a python3-packagekit so far) | 14:21 |
| xnox | pitti: you will in a second =) | 14:21 |

| tremolux | mterry: server-side fix in-progress | 14:32 |
| rsalveti | there was some important changes for gles support at glew1.7 afaik, so need to make sure it's all properly enabled I guess | 14:33 |
| mterry | tremolux, I have the same trace as comment #8, but not sure that's what that bug was originally about | 14:33 |
| mterry | tremolux, but if the server-side fix will get #8, I'm good | 14:33 |
| rsalveti | infinity: why are we still building for armel? | 14:34 |
| tremolux | mterry: right, the original probably described something that has long since been fixed (server churn, client churn) but the bug not updated/noticed, and the current problem seems to be as described in #8, and that is the one being fixed | 14:35 |
| tremolux | mterry: #8 is the one that people are hitting now, and it seems recent (and it revived the bug) | 14:36 |

| barry | kenvandine: hi, how are you today? i wanted to chat a bit about the py3 port of whatever parts of gwibber are going to be on the 12.10 desktop image. when i last looked, it was gwibber and gwibber-service. what's the current status of the code, and any py3 porting work you're aware of? | 14:48 |
| barry | kenvandine: foundations team is sprinting on py3 support and i figured since i'd previously looked at this, i'd take another look at it today | 14:49 |
| kenvandine | i haven't done anything yet, was hoping for a solution for libpeas | 14:49 |
| kenvandine | barry, has anything been figured out there? | 14:49 |
| barry | kenvandine: ah libpeas. i don't think so, but i will look into that today | 14:50 |
| kenvandine | we want to switch to using libpeas for handling the service plugins | 14:50 |
| kenvandine | instead of the hacky stuff we have now | 14:50 |
| kenvandine | but libpeas and py3 was a ??? | 14:50 |
| kenvandine | switching to libpeas would simplify the port to py3 if that worked with py3 | 14:51 |
| mterry | kenvandine, libpeas has gir support | 14:51 |
| barry | kenvandine: so gwibber doesn't currently use libpeas? | 14:51 |
| kenvandine | barry, no | 14:51 |
| dobey | mterry: it does, but that's mostly irrelevant | 14:51 |
| kenvandine | mterry, yeah but not py3 yet | 14:51 |
| dobey | mterry: the python loader only uses the python2 runtime | 14:52 |
| mterry | kenvandine, ah, internally it only supports py2 plugins? bummer | 14:52 |
| dobey | it should be easy to fix though | 14:52 |
| dobey | it just needs a py3 loader, and code to avoid loading both the py2 and py3 loaders (which are shared objects in libpeas itself) | 14:52 |

| BenC | infinity: it's the cause of most build failures for things like gdc, aspectc++, and a few other things | 17:06 |
| BenC | if I #undef that one line, all those things compile and are happy | 17:06 |
| BenC | fixes about half a dozen FTBFS and countless dep-waits | 17:07 |
| infinity | BenC: That's... Odd. It shouldn't, on its own, be causing any problems, really. | 17:07 |
| BenC | infinity: it's not…it's the "inline namespace" that gets exposed because of it | 17:07 |
| infinity | BenC: Unless those packages are also passing -mlong-double-64 | 17:07 |
| BenC | ...c++config.h:336: error: invalid declaration near token `namespace' | 17:08 |
| BenC | That "invalid" is "inline" and it's in the block of code used to get the -mlong-double-64 compatibility | 17:08 |
| BenC | I realize it's not really invalid, and that c++config.h isn't really broken, but all of these things build on x86 because it doesn't have this define, and I can't fix it anywhere else but in c++config.h | 17:09 |
| infinity | Well, we've probably been long-double-128 by default for over half a decade, but it might be worth sorting out how to scan the archive to make sure that dropping compat doesn't break anything. | 17:09 |
| BenC | It's the default for alpha, powerpc, sparc and s390 for this compatibility | 17:10 |
| BenC | At the very least, I'd like to modify c++config.h so that it can be disabled with a -D or similar | 17:12 |
| BenC | infinity: This was easier than I thought…adding -mlong-double-64 to these problematic program's CFLAGS might be the more unobtrusive fix | 17:21 |
| infinity | BenC: Oh. As in, they're breaking when building with the default mld128, but work with 64? | 17:22 |
| infinity | BenC: That's kinda special. But a simple enough fix. | 17:23 |
| BenC | infinity: right, but only because it avoids the "inline namespace" verbiage, but I'm happy with that | 17:23 |
| infinity | BenC: And one that will fail in very obvious ways if the backward compat ever goes away, so it's not like you're introducing scary. | 17:23 |
| BenC | Yeah, and considering these things never really built well on powerpc to begin with, one that won't break existing usage | 17:24 |

| SpamapS | 0.5+bzr538-0ubuntu1 | 18:01 |
| SpamapS | should have blocked the sync, no? | 18:02 |
| ogra_ | did debian have a -1 version by chance ? | 18:02 |
| SpamapS | 0.5+bzr539-1 was synced | 18:02 |
| ogra_ | yeah, -1 > -0ubuntu1 | 18:02 |
| SpamapS | but the existence of an ubuntu version should have stopped that | 18:02 |
| lifeless | why ? | 18:03 |
| SpamapS | Because that should require a merge | 18:03 |
| lifeless | not if the debian changelog contains 0ubuntu1 in it. | 18:03 |
| SpamapS | wha? | 18:03 |
| lifeless | [caveat, I haven't checked the code] | 18:03 |
| SpamapS | we just blindly throw away Ubuntu delta? | 18:03 |
| lifeless | but there is a merge graph | 18:03 |
| SpamapS | it hasn't happened with mysql-5.5 | 18:04 |
| lifeless | SpamapS: is there a delta in this case? | 18:04 |
| SpamapS | which was at 5.5.22-0ubuntu1 when Debian got 5.5.24+dfsg-1 | 18:04 |
| SpamapS | lifeless: yes, though its fairly innocuous and unimportant | 18:04 |
| SpamapS | I was planning on syncing them actually | 18:05 |
| SpamapS | so its possible somebody decided to just do it | 18:05 |
| ogra_ | well, theoretically if the debian package contains the version thats current in ubuntu one should be able to assume that the code is contained | 18:05 |
| ogra_ | so there theoretically cant be a delta | 18:05 |
| SpamapS | ogra_: it was my understanding that *any* -XubuntuX would force a manual merge or sync | 18:06 |
| SpamapS | This must have been a manual sync | 18:06 |
| debfx | it is a manual sync: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/quantal-changes/2012-June/002527.html | 18:06 |
| SpamapS | Actually it was, quantal-changes says Jeremy Bicha | 18:06 |
| ogra_ | well, why would you merge it if the changelog says it is already merged ? | 18:07 |
| SpamapS | ogra_: the changelog does not say it is already merged | 18:07 |
| ogra_ | i thought the changelog caontained the -0ubuntu1 version in the debian package | 18:07 |
| SpamapS | I'm guessing Jeremy just looked at the diff and realized it was fine (which it seemingly is) and just synced | 18:08 |
| SpamapS | ogra_: no definitely not | 18:08 |
| BenC | infinity: is there a better way to get a rebuild of a package (for the sake of it using a newer library) other than uploading a changelog-only source? | 18:08 |
| ogra_ | ah, then i misread | 18:08 |
| ScottK | BenC: No. | 18:08 |
| SpamapS | the debian package has but one entry in the changelog.. for the 0.5+bzr539-1 .. since it was NEW'd only yesterday | 18:08 |
| ogra_ | ah | 18:09 |
| SpamapS | I had intended to sync it myself.. *after* testing it :-P | 18:09 |
| ogra_ | yeah, that shouldnt autosync indeed | 18:09 |
| SpamapS | Hopefully our daily package builds still work. | 18:09 |
| * SpamapS tries the recipes now | 18:09 | |
| ScottK | But it didn't autosync. jbicha sync'ed it. | 18:09 |
| cjwatson | mterry: Remind me of the new dist-upgrade branch? I guess I have a ton of patches to sync over. | 18:09 |
| ScottK | (AIUI) | 18:09 |
| SpamapS | ScottK: right, it was just an eager syncer. ;) | 18:10 |
| cjwatson | mterry: I was kind of hoping to do an update-manager upload before trying to split out the upgrader, though, because I'm tantalisingly close to having it py3-ready. | 18:10 |
| cjwatson | lifeless: Autosyncing is purely based on whether the version number contains the "ubuntu" substring. -0ubuntu1 isn't special. | 18:10 |
| mterry | cjwatson, I've been working on integrating your new patches | 18:11 |
| SpamapS | ok, n/m.. nothing to see here. :) | 18:11 |
| mterry | cjwatson, I know, I didn't realize all this python3 stuff would happen before my branch got merged | 18:11 |
| cjwatson | mterry: The reason I'm reluctant is that I just finished doing a full test matrix this morning | 18:11 |
| mterry | cjwatson, U-M side is https://code.launchpad.net/~mterry/update-manager/split-release-upgrader | 18:12 |
| cjwatson | And I kind of don't want to do that all again tonight | 18:12 |
| mterry | cjwatson, new package is https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/ubuntu-release-upgrader/split | 18:12 |
| cjwatson | Can we leave it until after the first update-manager py3 upload? | 18:12 |
| mterry | cjwatson, we can sure. I'm in no rush | 18:13 |
| cjwatson | That shouldn't make it any more difficult. | 18:13 |
| cjwatson | And then I get to be a bit more stepwise about things | 18:13 |
| lifeless | cjwatson: thanks | 18:14 |
| cjwatson | mterry: Any reason that branch isn't just in lp:ubuntu-release-upgrader? | 18:15 |
| cjwatson | Oh, pending merege | 18:15 |
| cjwatson | *merge | 18:15 |
| mterry | cjwatson, yar, so it can be reviewed | 18:15 |
| * ScottK imagines mterry with an eye patch again. | 18:16 | |
| cjwatson | mterry: Since lp:ubuntu-release-upgrader is currently just a copy of lp:update-manager, rather than cherry-picking patches, it would make more sense to pull the lot into lp:ubuntu-release-upgrader first | 18:16 |
| cjwatson | That preserves history better as well | 18:17 |
| cjwatson | Maybe if we start that from 1:0.163 once it's uploaded | 18:17 |
| tgm4883 | ev, can I bug you for a sec regarding errors.ubuntu.com | 18:17 |
| * slangasek waits for mterry to start teaching command-not-found about avast-get and avast-cache | 18:17 | |
| mterry | cjwatson, hm? how am I losing history? if it's all in lp:u-r-u, you don't get a nice LP review, right? | 18:17 |
| cjwatson | mterry: Why would I care? Everything in lp:update-manager since then is either trivial or has already been reviewed. | 18:18 |
| cjwatson | mterry: lp:u-r-u -> current tip of lp:update-manager is a pure fast-forward merge (in git terms). | 18:18 |
| cjwatson | So we should do that first rather than cherry-picking a bunch of stuff that's textually identical but that now has a load of new commits. | 18:18 |
| mterry | cjwatson, right, and I just synced them again. But to be able to review my split... | 18:19 |
| cjwatson | Your branch is a mixture of stuff you've done and stuff I've done | 18:19 |
| cjwatson | AFAICS | 18:19 |
| cjwatson | Either that or we duplicated things by coincidence; I'm only going by the web diff | 18:19 |
| mterry | cjwatson, ah, well if you refresh you'll just seem my stuff. I just re-sync'd lp:u-r-u from lp:u-m | 18:20 |
| cjwatson | Ah, r2457 is an actual bzr merge | 18:20 |
| cjwatson | So I guess that's OK, but it would still be easier to review if we just pulled lp:u-r-u from lp:u-m first | 18:20 |
| mterry | cjwatson, right. It's just a branch. I'm doing this goofy stuff because LP can't support merge reviews across products | 18:20 |
| cjwatson | Then the review would be of your split, not of your split + nearly everything since 1:0.161 | 18:21 |
| mterry | cjwatson, it will still just be my split. Because lp:u-r-u is up-to-date | 18:21 |

| smoser | is there a proper way to reference a bug in a debian/changelog that does not make it magically 'fix-released' ? | 18:41 |
| smoser | i'm wanting to point to a bug in debian/changelog as reason for ubuntu delta | 18:41 |
| smoser | ie, its already fixed but i dont want every subsequent upload to think "oh, that bug is fixed now" (or maybe it would just not do that because of fix-released) | 18:41 |
| ScottK | Leave out the # and it won't trip the regex. | 18:42 |
| seb128 | smoser, if the bug is already closed in launchpad further uploads should not create any activity on the bug | 18:44 |
| smoser | ok. thanks seb128 ScottK . i guess i'll just leave it proper (LP: #XXXX) style and since they're fix-released it should be ok. | 18:44 |
| BenC | infinity: Is it correct that the buildd's run "debian/rules build" as opposed to "debian/rules build-arch"? | 18:48 |
| BenC | infinity: Mainly because I've seen several build failures where override_dh_auto_build-indep is being called for things like doxygen, which is in build-dep-indep, so it isn't installed | 18:49 |
| cjwatson | smoser: I generally use "LP #nnnnnn" for such things. | 19:08 |

| infinity | BenC: They call dpkg-buildpackage -B (which does build, then binary-arch) | 19:15 |
| soren | smoser: What cjwatson said. It's the general pattern people use for that. To specifically answer your question, though, the regex in question is applied by dpkg-parsechangelog on your machine when you "dpkg-buildpacakge -S". It finds the closed bugs and adds a Launchpad-Bugs-Fixed field to your .changes file. That's what Launchpad uses to close bugs. | 19:21 |
| soren | smoser: So, you could remove that field from your .changes, re-sign it, and upload, and you woulnd't trigger anything in Launchpad. | 19:22 |
| soren | smoser: ...but since the bugs are already closed, it'll be a no-op anyway. | 19:22 |

| seb128 | kees, was that the wrong way to raise those issues? | 19:41 |
| seb128 | kees, I really though those items would get on the next week agenda if not addressed on the list | 19:41 |
| kees | seb128: normally if you want something discussed at the meeting, it needs to get added to the wiki page by the interested party. | 19:42 |
| seb128 | kees, cjwatson: as an outsider the experience is pretty disappointing to see the list ignored and the meeting to go "no topic, no need to have a meeting" | 19:42 |
| seb128 | kees, ok, thanks, I will do that for the next meeting in 2 weeks if those issues are still stalled | 19:43 |

| slangasek | dpkg-checkbuilddeps: Unmet build dependencies: xvfb | 20:47 |
| slangasek | hmm, echan | 20:47 |
| kees | slangasek: MREs were never supposed to skip SRU quality controls. | 20:47 |
| kees | slangasek: they were created to avoid busy-work for the SRU team when there was a historical precedent (and sufficient checks in place to assure future quality) such that the SRU team didn't have to bother reviewing a given package. | 20:48 |
| slangasek | kees: that's not my understanding of what's been proposed here | 20:48 |
| slangasek | also, it's very hard to establish a historical precedent of successful SRUs following the existing SRU policy for these things because the scale of review involved in actually doing it by the book is too onerous | 20:49 |
| kees | slangasek: hence my suggestion that perhaps the SRU process needs to be adjusted. | 20:50 |
| slangasek | in the specific case of libreoffice, we do have a history of successful point release updates... natty, oneiric, precise all have point-release SRUs | 20:50 |
| infinity | I review pretty much everything I accept, except for mozilla.org and libreoffice, and even those, I give a cursory glance. | 20:50 |
| slangasek | are these not sufficient? | 20:50 |
| kees | slangasek: ah, I either missed that, or it wasn't mentioned in the request. | 20:51 |
| verwilst | kees, ping | 20:51 |
| kees | slangasek: I think it may help to have an SRU team member speak up on behalf of MRE requests in the future, actually. | 20:51 |
| kees | verwilst: pong | 20:51 |
| verwilst | oh :) | 20:51 |
| verwilst | kees, i would like to monitoring-default-off.patch :) | 20:52 |
| verwilst | uh "talk to you about" | 20:52 |
| slangasek | kees: so you think that it should be a judgement call of the SRU team to decide whether we should rely on upstream regression testing as sufficient verification for an SRU? | 20:52 |
| kees | verwilst: yeah, seems to have caused problems for ivoks too | 20:52 |
| verwilst | kees, the "activation/monitoring=0 is incompatible with clustered Volume Group "test": Skipping." i presume | 20:53 |
| slangasek | kees: right, perhaps it didn't get mentioned... anyway, libO does have a bit of precedence here | 20:53 |
| kees | slangasek: I think that if it makes sense for that package and Ubuntu, yes. I think there are 3 distinct situations: "single fix SRU", "upstream point release SRU", and "MRE" | 20:53 |
| verwilst | it's not an issue on centos though, and no dmeventd running there | 20:53 |
| kees | slangasek: and I can see how that latter two seem similar. | 20:54 |
| micahg | slangasek: kees: there was also a failed SRU in oneiric for LibreOffice for which there is no plan to fix it, I would hope that if an MRE is granted, it's made clear that regressions do need to be addressed | 20:54 |
| micahg | it's in -proposed, so it's not that big of a deal to drop I guess | 20:54 |
| kees | slangasek: but the MRE, IMO, was designed more for blessing a package so it doesn't have to the SRU team doing extensive examinations. | 20:54 |
| slangasek | kees: where is category 2 defined? | 20:56 |
| kees | slangasek: it isn't -- it's what you've just described, and what is being discussed here. | 20:57 |
| slangasek | ah | 20:57 |
| kees | slangasek: there appears to be a need for "there are so many changes here, SRU team must depend on upstream to declare it okay" | 20:57 |
| infinity | slangasek: I think kees is implying that the middle category goes through the same level of review and rigor, while we let the latter "slide". | 20:57 |
| slangasek | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#New_upstream_microreleases is what we currently have AIUI | 20:57 |
| * kees re-reads https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates/MicroReleaseExceptions | 20:58 | |
| kees | hrm, yeah, I guess the "history of successful SRUs" isn't in there at all. | 21:01 |
| verwilst | kees, i guess i'm interrupting? :) | 21:02 |
| kees | verwilst: I'm actually reading the history of this patch now to refresh my mind... | 21:02 |
| verwilst | oh, sweet :) | 21:02 |
| kees | verwilst: the problem appears to be that we cannot have a requirement that dmeventd be running. | 21:02 |
| kees | verwilst: the problem ivoks ran into seems to be that the patch accidentally makes it so you can _never_ talk to dmeventd. :P | 21:03 |
| kees | verwilst: so, I think, solving that is what's needed here. | 21:03 |
| kees | verwilst: does that match what you're seeing? | 21:03 |
| verwilst | euh | 21:04 |
| verwilst | dmeventd isnt running on my precise either | 21:04 |
| verwilst | but vgchange --monitor y works | 21:04 |
| kees | weird | 21:05 |
| verwilst | if /etc/lvm/lvm.conf has monitoring=0 by default for example, shouldnt that stop lvm from talking to the mythical dmeventd as well? | 21:07 |
| verwilst | because now it seems to ignore that setting | 21:07 |

| ubottu | Launchpad bug 833368 in resource-agents (Ubuntu) "clustered lvm commands fail with "activation/monitoring=0 is incompatible with clustered Volume Group" error" [Undecided,In progress] | 21:27 |
| verwilst | i even made 2 useless comments at the bottom ( hey, it was very late.. :P ) | 21:27 |
| kees | slangasek, verwilst: I've tried to summarize the requirements in a comment there now | 21:29 |
| xnox | kees: slangasek: I am happy to look at that at some point. Seems to be a valid bug. | 21:29 |
| lepagee_ | Hi, I am trying to package something for launchpad, but I get "rmdir: failed to remove `obj-i686-linux-gnu': No such file or directory" on out build system. When I copy the debian dir in my project, it work fine. We use a custom build script, http://pastebin.com/5vzSVJGE Any idea what is wrong with it? | 21:29 |
| * verwilst cheers for xnox, kees and slangasek! | 21:30 | |
| xnox | kees: slangasek: about the SRU of micro point release. I want to SRU e2fsprogs micro-release, and SRM mdadm micro-release, which I will be discussing with 12.04.1 release team meeting tomorrow. | 21:30 |
| xnox | as those fix serious bugs, and they are purely bugfix releases. | 21:31 |
| * xnox goes to subscribe | 21:31 | |
| slangasek | xnox, kees: it shouldn't be too high up the todo list for foundations... I'd really rather someone (e.g. ivoks) who's actually using clustered LVM2 tell us what's needed | 21:31 |
| kees | xnox: seems like an easy one for the SRU team to +1 | 21:31 |
| kees | slangasek: yeah, agreed | 21:31 |
| xnox | kees: I am still to prepare a reports. | 21:32 |
| xnox | kees: I'm hoping to bump btrfs-tools with a ~2year update as an SRU, that one might be a bit tricky, but I have a case for that as well. | 21:32 |
| xnox | lepagee_: rm -rf your friend? clean runs before build, so you should assume that everything might be clean already. Run clean twice locally and make sure it is fine. | 21:33 |
| slangasek | backport please | 21:33 |
| === salem_ is now known as _salem | ||
| xnox | slangasek: and what shall I do with bugs that precise kernel is out-of-sync with btrfs-progs, and machines fail to boot because of that? | 21:34 |
| slangasek | xnox: it doesn't meet SRU policy to bump btrfs-tools, no matter how un-featureful the current version is; so please use precise-backports | 21:34 |
| slangasek | really? | 21:34 |
| xnox | slangasek: =))))) | 21:34 |
| xnox | slangasek: althought, it's fixables with symlinking btrfs.fsck to /bin/true as a minimal SRU, or removing it at all =) | 21:35 |
| xnox | in precise | 21:35 |
| slangasek | why do they need to be in sync at all? it's not like btrfs.fsck does anything :P | 21:35 |
| * xnox you didn't hear that ;-) | 21:35 | |
| slangasek | sigh | 21:35 |
| xnox | slangasek: 'your filesystem has features not supported by this version of btrfs. exit 1' | 21:35 |
| xnox | because for some bizaer reason they do?! | 21:35 |
| verwilst | maybe the udeb scripts can use --ignoremonitoring? | 21:36 |
| lepagee_ | xnox: The script does a git checkout, this should clean everything, the problem is probably elsewhere | 21:36 |
| xnox | slangasek: now it actually does something vague on the useful side of the fence | 21:36 |
| slangasek | xnox: if users set pass to 0 in /etc/fstab, does the problem go away? | 21:37 |
| xnox | slangasek: will test tomorrow now that I have 4x1TB drives to play around with stuff =) | 21:37 |
| slangasek | xnox: because frankly I like that option much better... less work for you, and less risk of giving users the accidental impression that btrfs is something well-supported in the world (let alone in precise) | 21:38 |
| xnox | slangasek: well have you seen ubuntu-planet http://www.jorgecastro.org/2012/06/04/playing-with-btrfs/ ? | 21:39 |
| slangasek | xnox: heh | 21:40 |
| slangasek | xnox: don't listen to that guy, he builds all his code with -fruit-rollups | 21:41 |
| xnox | slangasek: both old and newer btrfs.fsck get killed with OOM on 1TB drives. latter version gets kill later than the former. | 21:41 |
| === lepagee_ is now known as Elv1313 | ||
| slangasek | xnox: you're really not selling me on the value of an SRU here ;) | 21:43 |
| xnox | slangasek: ok, I will settle for btrfs-tools backport ;-) | 21:44 |
| micahg | xnox: only 3 rdeps, so should be easy enough | 21:44 |
| micahg | and one of those is a meta package, so 2 | 21:44 |
| Laney | micahg: while we're on backports, I think some of Yolanda's stuff got ready | 21:45 |
| Laney | fancy taking a look? … | 21:45 |
| === Guest71017 is now known as mfisch | ||
| micahg | Laney: how are you uploading the stuff without ubuntu diff with the broken backportpackage script? | 21:46 |
| Laney | broken? | 21:46 |
| micahg | Laney: I can a bit a later, I have to get some stuff done today :) | 21:46 |
| Laney | I'm running out of bzr if that makes a difference | 21:46 |
| micahg | bug 1007042 | 21:46 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1007042 in ubuntu-dev-tools (Ubuntu) "[backportpackage] errors out on packages with no ubuntu revision" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1007042 | 21:47 |
| Laney | oh, probably because I have DEBEMAIL=iain@orangesquash.org.uk when building backports usually | 21:47 |
| verwilst | xnox, if you need help testing, a shoulder to cry on, etc about the lvm bug, let me know! :) | 21:48 |
| xnox | verwilst: noted. | 21:49 |
| micahg | Laney: that's one solution I suppose :), but I like to have my Ubuntu address in debian/changelog | 21:49 |
| hallyn | does the following mean anything to anyone? | 21:50 |
| hallyn | objcopy:debian/qemu-kvm/usr/bin/stKSZjR6: cannot create debug link section `debian/qemu-kvm-dbg/usr/lib/debug//usr/bin/qemu-x86_64': Invalid operation | 21:50 |
| xnox | Laney: yoanda doing progress. Good, need to catch up on that. | 21:50 |
| Laney | deps are getting there | 21:51 |
| Laney | is the actual package nearly ready to be sponsored? | 21:52 |
| xnox | Laney: not sure =) I have been busy looking for a house to live in. Otherwise I will be homeless on the 4th of July =) | 21:52 |
| Laney | an interesting form of independence | 21:53 |
| xnox | Laney: last time I spoke with yolanda, I gave a guide on plenty things to do. | 21:53 |
| micahg | Laney: I guess no one will freak if I use a different address for a few backports | 21:53 |
| xnox | tell me about it =) | 21:53 |
| xnox | micahg: nope =) we know where to find you? | 21:54 |
| Laney | micahg: A reasonable solution would be to unset DEBEMAIL when building the source package in backportpackage | 21:54 |
| micahg | Laney: nope, then user@host is used :) | 21:54 |
| Laney | used for what? | 21:54 |
| micahg | it just needs to be unset for the debuild part | 21:54 |
| Laney | the changelog is already generated then | 21:54 |
| Laney | yes | 21:54 |
| Laney | building the source package | 21:54 |
| micahg | ah, that's what you meant :) | 21:54 |
| micahg | yes, I thought I suggested that | 21:55 |
| xnox | micahg: btw I'm having two thunderbird icons in quantal right now: a normal unity one with the badge & ugly pixelated bamf one for each window | 21:55 |
| micahg | xnox: as chrisccoulson :) | 21:55 |
| micahg | *ask | 21:55 |
| xnox | chrisccoulson: ^^^ see my last message to micahg | 21:55 |
| * xnox should really look on launchpad for a bug.... | 21:55 | |
| * micahg thought he saw a report for that as well | 21:55 | |
| * xnox is tempted to finally port all of my email identities to gnus-alias and move away from thunderbird, because of that bug =) | 21:56 | |
| chrisccoulson | xnox, yes, there is already a bug on launchpad for that | 21:57 |
| xnox | chrisccoulson: do you have a bug # or a search keyword? | 21:58 |
| * xnox wants to subscribe to it | 21:58 | |

| xnox | found it! | 22:01 |
| Laney | micahg: proposed a branch. Maybe give it a go when you process your next backport? | 22:24 |
| micahg | Laney: ok | 22:25 |
| micahg | stgraber: did that newt get away from you? | 22:35 |
| stgraber | micahg: I know | 22:36 |
| stgraber | micahg: I was just mentioning it in another channel | 22:36 |
| stgraber | micahg: I need to teach dput to allow the target to be given as the last arg :) | 22:36 |
| micahg | heh | 22:36 |
| stgraber | anyway, it's ~ppa1 just because I wanted to make sure it builds on the buildd before uploading, the package itself is archive-ready | 22:36 |
| stgraber | micahg: btw, you're really low latency today ;) I really just had time to see it go wrong in my shell, complain about dput in #pyjam, then saw your hilight :) | 22:38 |
| micahg | stgraber: just happened to be looking there I guess :) | 22:38 |
| cjwatson | Laney: techboard mail> done | 22:48 |
| Laney | tidy | 22:49 |
| doko | jtaylor, well, get the patch into debian | 22:55 |
| ScottK | doko: Speaking of getting things into Debian ... how about python2.7/3.2 updates? | 23:13 |
| Bluefoxicy | so | 23:34 |
| Bluefoxicy | I have an idea to derive a C library from {BSD|GNU} awk that supplies a handful of functions to: | 23:34 |
| Bluefoxicy | 1) initialize an 'awk' object from a string containing an awk script (including copying the script to its own memory space--compiling it to bytecode etc) | 23:35 |
| Bluefoxicy | 2) Allow the calling of awk as if it were continuously executing against a stream by passing char* strings acting as lines (or multiple lines) of a stream | 23:36 |
| Bluefoxicy | 3) Check the status of awk (did it terminate, i.e. by eof or exit command) | 23:36 |
| Bluefoxicy | 4) Destroy the awk object | 23:36 |
| Bluefoxicy | This is all mainly irrelevant here except for one detail | 23:36 |
| Bluefoxicy | I'm sure nobody wants to maintain a package for something called 'libcawk' so what should I call this thing? | 23:36 |
| JontheEchidna | there does exist a "libkok" (though not in Ubuntu) http://maemo.org/packages/view/libkok/ :P | 23:38 |
| ScottK | libobjawk | 23:39 |
| Bluefoxicy | heh | 23:49 |
| Bluefoxicy | ScottK has the best one I think | 23:49 |
| Bluefoxicy | it even has the advantage that, at a glance, it's not clear what in the hell the name is supposed to mean or how you're supposed to read it :P | 23:50 |
| ScottK | I came up with libkibi for bdrung too. | 23:52 |
