[14:03] heh [14:04] We are going on nicely. There was a bit of a scare yesterday, with bug... [14:04] * hggdh goes check [14:05] bah, cannot find it. But it was a problem with dpkg amd multiarch [14:05] that caused dpkg to completely fail to work. Corrected yesterday, and a new dpkg is now available [14:06] apart from that, it is business as usual. We have pretty much been able to provide working images continuously this cycle [14:06] well, almost continuously ;-) [14:06] .. [14:07] :-) [14:07] I saw gema talk a bit about UTAH [14:07] what's going on now with that? Is there a meeting place for people interested now? [14:08] there is a mailing list for -- ubuntu-utah-dev@lists.ubuntu.com [14:08] anyone interested can subscribe, and we expect it to be low-volume [14:08] we do not have meetings or presentations scheduled for UTAH right now [14:09] but we can set one if there is a need [14:09] are you able to demo it hggdh ? [14:09] no, I am not -- I am just now getting to use it. Sorry [14:09] but [14:10] UTAH is currently limited to dealing with VMs (specifically libvirtd) [14:10] support for bare-metal installation and testing will come in a few weeks [14:11] thanks hggdh [14:11] the whole idea of UTAH is to provide a common base for test submission and control (and, up to a point, reporting) [14:11] questions? [14:12] [TOPIC] Ubuntu Flavor Updates === meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: Ubuntu Meeting Grounds | Calendar/Scheduled meetings: http://fridge.ubuntu.com/calendar | Logs: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MeetingLogs | Meetingology documentation: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/meetingology | Ubuntu QA Meeting | Current topic: Ubuntu Flavor Updates [14:13] phillw, care to start us off? [14:13] all quiet on lubuntu, just one bug that seems possibly hardware related. [14:14] they're finalising off the applications that will be included by default [14:14] any big changeups? [14:14] nothing as yet, the application changes are planned after A2, afaik [14:15] they're testing the applications before inclusion, so hopefully there will be very little impact on the iso (famous last words!). [14:16] that's all from me :) [14:16] hehe! [14:16] alright, let's see.. how about xubuntu? [14:16] Yes, hi. [14:16] howdy astraljava [14:17] Well, we have finally had some testing, and the tests have gone pretty nicely, a few bugs of course. [14:17] We're having the team meeting right after this one, and I want to discuss our participation on Alpha-2 milestone. [14:17] My personal opinion is that we should do it, but let's see. [14:18] I just started to gather data through the xml-rpc interface, but haven't really made it there, yet. [14:18] But it'll be of more value during the milestones, anyway. [14:18] We've also started to enhance our testcases. [14:19] During one of those discussions, some confusion arose about the categorization of bugs. [14:19] But we should talk about them later this meeting. [14:20] That's pretty much it for Xubuntu. No questions? Moving on. *smirk* [14:20] .. [14:20] astraljava, sounds good, we'll discuss the bug issue in a moment [14:20] alright, kubuntu? [14:22] mythbuntu? [14:24] edubuntu? [14:24] :-) ubuntu studio? [14:24] Still here. :) [14:24] yes, take two astraljava [14:25] sorry what meeting is this again? [14:25] hey highvoltage :-) [14:25] Studio is a bit of a poor puppy here. We haven't had a working image since $deity_remembers_when. [14:25] heya balloons [14:25] this is the qa community meeting [14:25] ah ok [14:26] Contributions to the flavor has been to a minimum. We have left packages hanging in the FTBFS state for way too long. [14:26] k.. so plans for alpha 2? [14:26] going to skip? [14:26] Also there were some changes in the infrastructure (xfce4), which we just neglected to react to. [14:27] My feeling is yes, that'll be likely. [14:27] Unless something miraculous happens during the few upcoming days, definitely. [14:28] Things are picking up, though, so still very much looking for the Beta milestones. [14:28] .. [14:28] looking forward* [14:29] sounds good [14:29] alright any last questions before we move on? [14:29] [TOPIC] Other Topics === meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: Ubuntu Meeting Grounds | Calendar/Scheduled meetings: http://fridge.ubuntu.com/calendar | Logs: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MeetingLogs | Meetingology documentation: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/meetingology | Ubuntu QA Meeting | Current topic: Other Topics [14:30] So, I have an update to talk a little about, but we'll start with your bugs questions astraljava [14:30] Alright, so we chatted about the critical bugs vs. just bugs on the tracker. [14:31] We did agree that whenever you stumble upon a bug that is not highly relevant to the testcase, you can mark the test as passed, but mention the bug number. [14:31] But where we didn't come to a conclusion is, and my question is: What exactly is a critical bug? [14:31] Failing to install? Sure. [14:32] But other parts? What's your take on it over at the vanilla side? [14:32] we just had this same discussion [14:32] I was hoping to remove the concept of "critical bugs" and go with just bugs [14:33] however, as it stands the definition is something that prevents the testcase from passing [14:33] in other words, in the testcase failed, you should file a critical bug [14:33] if it didn't fail any bugs you found are just bugs [14:34] Yeah, but some parties were of the opinion that only the uninstallability marks the test as failed. [14:34] But I was thinking more of the releasability. [14:34] if it failed, and you found other bugs which didn't neccessary lead to it failing somehow, you could also have just bugs on a normal entry [14:34] well, testcases are diverse [14:35] so it may very well install but fail the arch check or something [14:35] by the current definition, it would still be crtiical [14:35] I can't remember where we left the discussion ATM [14:35] Right, so if you may, I'd present the exact case that lead us bickering; our case wants to check for possible USB sticks, and mounting them. [14:35] it's probably worth continuing on the mailing list / opening a bug against the ubuntu qa website [14:36] Now I agree that the case should be worded better. But what good is mounting a stick, if you cannot browse it? That's what happened with the tester. dmesg correctly identified the stick, but thunar couldn't browse it. [14:37] Nevermind the beef of the case here, but I would want the guidelines clear for any similar cases in the future. :) [14:37] I'd consider not being able to browse a mounted usb stick as critical. [14:38] though as to which application to file it against... that is another matter. [14:38] Yeah, me too; again with the releasability, I would not release such an image where file browsing of removable media doesn't work. :) [14:38] well, my idea was the terms are confusing and unneeded. Simply note the bugs filed when they happen [14:38] lp will take care of severity [14:38] That's true. So we'll just figure out inside the project, whether the bug constitutes the test as failing or passing? [14:39] well, I mean if the test fails, it fails [14:39] etheir way you note the bugs [14:40] as far as when you release and what you release it's up to the team [14:40] you can release note (almost) anything ;-0 [14:40] Right. Well let me put it another way; are there situations where a point in the testcase fails, but will not fail the whole test? [14:41] Or are all points critical in that sense; fail any, and the whole test is marked as failed. [14:43] astraljava, right.. as of now, everything is crticial [14:43] if ANYTHING fails, the whole thing fails [14:43] Ok, thanks. We'll just have to be careful with the wording, then. Cheers! :) [14:43] .. [14:44] ok, from my end, I'll be quick, we're running out of time. phillw and myself prototyped out the structure for the new testcase mgmt on the tracker [14:44] i'll be migrating over the first testcases today and sending a mail off for feedback [14:45] so look for that, and be sure and share your thoughts. We'll discuss the admin side in more detail tomorrow @ the roundtable.. [14:46] A new team has been created in order to help maintain testcases.. I'll be asking some folks who are already involved to help staff it. The goal is to get a good group of trusted folks to maintain and expand the tests over time [14:47] that said, anyone can 'file a bug' to add a new testcase or issue a correction to a testcase [14:47] The testcase format hasn't changed, but I will be sending it around as well [14:47] Any questions? [14:48] for flavors it should allow you to setup testcases for your images, using the ubuntu testcases as needed.. So it should work out nicely [14:49] Looking forward to seeing that. Good job! [14:49] stgraber has been wonderful in helping us get this all done.. be sure and thank him [14:50] alrighty, any final questions or comments? [14:50] o/ [14:50] yes phillw [14:51] I will not be here next meeting, I'm hoping to have cover in place; but cannot guarantee. [14:51] * balloons notes that his IRC client really refuses to tab-complete phillw's name [14:52] no worries phillw. [14:52] if no one is able to fill in, we'll catch up the following week [14:52] alright folks, that's a wrap!

Somebody goes first, and then at the end chooses who goes next. keeps people on their toes & make them follow the meeting ;-) [15:03] Some minor merges and syncs. [15:03] Converted apt-setup to new world order for dpkg multiarch configuration. [15:03] Experimenting with efilinux's interface. [15:03] Got per-pocket upload permissions working, and deployed them for -backports and -security. [15:03] Finished LP API exports needed for new-style change-override. [15:03] Fixed a bug where lp/debian/+source/* imports get confused for Debian source packages that require DEB_VENDOR=debian to extract correctly. [15:03] Worked on making Archive.copyPackage work for the security team. [15:03] .. [15:04] cjwatson: yeah. is that for lp only or for package-import as well? the DEB_VENDOR bit? [15:05] LP only [15:05] sorry, still typing [15:05] udd probably ought to do it but I don't work on that :) [15:06] stgraber: shall I go while you finish? [15:06] cjwatson: ok. [15:07] ev: go ahead [15:08] - Updated average time between failures to the latest nvd3 goodness and told [15:08] it to fetch up to 30 days (efficiently) at a time, so you should start to [15:08] see a better picture being formed once that gets deployed. [15:08] - Cleaned up the problem pages on errors.ubuntu.com. We now have colorized [15:08] traces for both binary and interpreted crashes. [15:08] - Wrote an LEP for the bugs to fixed binary packages work in Launchpad. [15:08] Waiting to hear back from Francis and Rob: [15:08] https://dev.launchpad.net/LEP/BugsToFixedBinaries [15:08] - Had a long conversation with pitti over the design of the duplicates [15:08] database. The existing model lets multiple crash signatures exist and has an [15:08] algorithm to map duplicate bug reports to the correct master bug report for [15:08] a given signature. We agreed that this wasn't ideal. This is especially so [15:08] given that errors.ubuntu.com effectively uses crash signatures as a primary [15:08] key and I've run head first into this in attempting to weld apport's [15:08] - Duplicating lots of bugs to a single bug used to cause timeouts. [15:08] - Before we had nice controls around per bug mail notification people would [15:08] get spammed with messages they didn't care about. [15:08] - Sometimes two distinct problems share the same crash signature. [15:08] The first two points are resolved and the second one needs to be addressed [15:08] properly. So we agreed that the following will be done: [15:08] - We'll have a single master bug for a given crash signature. [15:08] - As the problem gets fixed in releases, the release task status will be [15:08] changed. [15:08] - We'll let developers split apart crashes with the same signature by [15:08] creating a new signature using the server-side apport hooks. [15:08] - Since we didn't have a team meeting last week, you fortunately missed my [15:08] detailed whinging of why talking to Launchpad as a web service is a road [15:08] paved with landmines. I was going to build a celery worker to service [15:08] requests to communicate with Launchpad, but I talked with Rob about it some [15:08] more and he felt that the more expedient option of talking straight HTTP to [15:08] Launchpad's API was acceptable. [15:08] - So I wrote code to do just this for the case of creating bugs [15:08] from the errors.ubuntu.com front page as part of the e.u.c API and bound [15:08] the AJAX code I had written for handling this POST operation to it. I'm [15:08] also going to have the bucketing process automatically create these bugs [15:08] when the instance count gets above 30 or so, so you'll likely rarely see [15:08] the 'create bug' links or care about them. [15:09] - Started writing the Daisy (Cassandra) apport crashdb implementation [15:09] (lp:~ev/apport/daisy-duplicates-db) as eluded to above. This will let [15:09] crash-digger and the daisy.ubuntu.com retracers share knowledge of the [15:09] mapping of crash signatures to bugs. This in turn will let us have 'create [15:09] bug' links on http://errors.ubuntu.com and is required for the 'fixed binary [15:09] packages for a given crash signature' work. [15:09] - Verified the latest USB disks for the shop. [15:09] - Started implementing errors from hanging applications in apport [15:09] (lp:~ev/apport/reports-from-hangs) now that we have an approach that the [15:09] security team is happy with: [15:09] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/whoopsie-daisy/+bug/1006398 [15:09] - Looked into handling hanging Python applications with help from Colin: [15:09] https://bugs.launchpad.net/whoopsie/+bug/1015080 [15:09] - Started implementing recoverable error reporting in apport. [15:09] - Fixed some minor bugs in lp:daisy and lp:errors. [15:09] - Landed my libwhoopsie branch on trunk and released a new version. [15:09] - Landed by 'show previous crash reports' branch on lp:activity-log-manager. [15:09] Cleaned things up for a release, but after talking with the zeitgeist guys [15:09] that wont be until next week. [15:09] (done) [15:09] Launchpad bug 1006398 in whoopsie-daisy (Ubuntu) "Bypassing ptrace restrictions for errors from hanging applications" [Undecided,New] [15:09] Launchpad bug 1015080 in Whoopsie "Retrieve Python tracebacks from hanging applications" [Wishlist,New] [15:09] * stgraber is ready now [15:09] Is it just me, or are the novels getting longer?

[15:09] infinity: :) [15:09] infinity, they are [15:09] i cant read fast enough [15:10] - 12.04.1 [15:10] - Preparing team meeting, team meeting and meeting notes. [15:10] - Helped verify a few items in the queue [15:10] - Containers [15:10] - Improved our apparmor profiles to be easier to edit/fork by our users [15:10] - Converted Serge's initial work on liblxc into a quilt patch [15:10] - Implemented python3-lxc, a python C binding of liblxc0 with some python overrides [15:10] - Got test packages built and published in my PPA [15:10] - Working on updating the bindings as Serge implements new features in liblxc [15:10] - Still need some more work on memory/error management in my C code... [15:10] - ISO tracker [15:10] - Implemented the remaining items from the QA team [15:10] - Merged the testcase management branches into their respective trunk branches [15:10] - Got IS to deploy the new code and ran the DB upgrade, so far all looks good [15:10] - Worked on a few minor UI fixes that should land later this week [15:10] - Networking [15:11] - Posted a long reply to a bridge-utils Debian bug, trying to explain how that [15:11] even based networking stuff works in Ubuntu.

[15:11] - Go through the networking bugs, merge/sync the networking packages, including bumping isc-dhcp [15:11] to 4.2. SRU any important fix found while doing that. [15:11] - Continue going through the pending-sru and help for these that are stuck on verification-needed [15:11] (DONE) [15:11] oh, and I'll be off on Monday (Quebec day) [15:12] - Lots of PlusOneMaint fixing, sponsoring and archiveadminning [15:12] - Dealt with several SRU kernels [15:12] - Hunted down one mono/armel bug, only to find that the natty kernels are giving us more issues; this needs escalating [15:12] - dpkg merge done, with upgrade fallout needing to be dealt with [15:12] - debhelper merge and eglibc fix in to match the new dpkg [15:12] ... [15:12] * infinity needs to write these things earlier, so he can be as verbose as the cool kids. [15:12] ev: I think one of your sentences got cut off ;) "weld apport's [...]" [15:12] ev: so did you have to manually adjust the sizes of the usbsticks to make them fit for validation purposes? [15:12] infinity, dont ! i have to summarize it for the release meeting [15:12] slangasek: rubbish, okay….pasting [15:13] - gcc-4.7 c++11/c++98 ABI issues [15:13] - python3 porting jam [15:13] - python3.3 updates, and cross builds [15:13] .. [15:14] key and I've run head first into this in attempting to weld apport's [15:14] duplicates database into daisy's Cassandra database. The reasons for this [15:14] behavior were as follows: [15:14] - Duplicating lots of bugs to a single bug used to cause timeouts. [15:14] - Before we had nice controls around per bug mail notification people would [15:14] get spammed with messages they didn't care about. [15:14] - Sometimes two distinct problems share the same crash signature. [15:14] The first two points are resolved and the second one needs to be addressed [15:14] properly.

[15:19] more python 3 porting: apturl (landed), python3-xapian (ongoing upstream discussion), libpeas (upstream supports it, needs packaging work, thanks xnox for the cdbs magic!). helped stgraber with some python3/lxc debugging. patch piloted. todo: continue with libpeas and xapian. what's up with twisted? done.

[15:22] xnox: i backported 2 patches for autofs, assuming test goes well do you think it'd be a problem getting SRU for lucid? Data Not Available [15:22] jodh: buffer overflow ? =) [15:23] xnox: http://is.gd/RpIFyQ [15:23] sorry, paste buffer is being stupid [15:23] stokachu: i have problems with 5.0.6, working on them. Will check if you picked up a broken patch or not which does check_nfs [15:23] jodh: your turn [15:24] * boot/upstart: Working on stateful re-exec. [15:24] - Can now mostly serialise and deserialise Sessions, Events and [15:24] Processes in basic form and getting close with JobClasses. [15:24] - Identified that we'll need json-c version 0.10 (currently beta) [15:24] for Upstart as previous library versions don't appear to provide [15:24] the ability to detect garbage JSON data which can lead to crashes. [15:24] j [15:25] stokachu: did you right the patch or did you backported/cherrypicked stuff? [15:25] is 'j' the unicode 'done' marker of the day? :) [15:25] xnox: cherry picked [15:25] excess flood ? [15:25] stokachu: ok. [15:25] slangasek: yeah. It's a good letter :) [15:25] jodh: heh [15:25] jodh: do you know when json-c 0.10 is due out? [15:26] * xnox should it not be "-- Sir J." ?! =) [15:26] slangasek: no - will chase up on that. [15:26] may I? [15:26] xnox: yes [15:26] * python sprint: helped porting apt-btrfs-snapshot, [15:26] ubuntu-drivers-common, apparmor. Helped with packaging [15:26] questions. The funny one, was libpeas with cdbs flavor's build [15:26] helpers with barry. [15:26] * became a core-dev! made good progress on boost1.49, only a couple of [15:26] merges gcc-4.7/ftbs left to complete that transition [15:26] * verified that http://lwn.net/Articles/502482/ is fix-released across [15:27] affected kernels in all releases (precise, quantal) [15:27] * LVM ubiquity design is in progress, unblocked - there are things [15:27] that I can start implementing [15:27] * waiting for somebody with ubiquity/partman knowledge to respond to [15:27] an email on ubuntu-installer mailing list [15:27] * had various discussions on how to make raid more reliable in private [15:27] email and bug reports on launchpad (there is more scope post-quantal [15:27] for hardware raid & network attached raid's) [15:27] * merged latest mdadm, need to test it then it will be ready for [15:27] upload [15:27] xnox: did I miss something in the birthday honours list? :) [15:27] * merged latest autofs, discovered that upstream added an extra fork [15:27] in the pre-demonisation. This broke the current upstart job. With [15:27] jodh's help, we pinned it down. Need to write a small patch, retest, [15:27] submit to debian/upstream, and upload to quantal. [15:27] * the new UTAH (ubuntu test automation harness) for automatic testing [15:27] is not yet fully ready yet. I should be able to start writing [15:27] automated boot/failure tests for raid/btrfs/lvm/grub in a 1-2 weeks, [15:27] according to gemma. Subscribed to utah-devel and tracking progress. [15:27] * did progress on drafting Event Driven initramfs (jump in work [15:27] items). Still needs more copy editing & detailed transition plan of [15:27] all the initramfs top/bottom/etc/ scripts to upstart. Similar [15:27] analysis was previously done, but needs to be revisited for quantal. [15:27] #action xnox to deal with dpkg fallout [15:27] ACTION: xnox to deal with dpkg fallout [15:27] * xnox wonders if that went through or not.... [15:27] stokachu: uploaded [15:27] jodh: it's the perk for working on upstart [15:28] stgraber: perfect thank you :D [15:28] xnox: I have no overwhelming urge to own dpkg, but if you need a sounding board for ideas (and I imagine you will, doesn't seem like the sort of thing that should be done in a vacuum), hit me up. [15:29] infinity: ok, thank you. I haven't yet hacked dpkg itself. so it might be steep or not. [15:29] cjwatson, ev, stgraber: have you seen the mail to ubuntu-installer that xnox mentions above he's waiting for a response to? [15:29] stokachu: I only saw jamespage's comments in the merge proposals after uploading, so it's not impossible they both get rejected as the changelog entry is indeed not really descriptive of the problem/fix [15:30] stgraber: ah hopefully arges will follow up with that [15:30] stokachu: I also had to change the version number and pocket + run update-maintainer for it to match the SRU policies [15:30] huh, I don't seem to be getting mails from it [15:30] slangasek: yes, in my queue :-/ [15:30] stgraber: im just the messenger on that one [15:30] I wonder if I'm subscribed with evand@ [15:30] dpkg in a vacuum sounds like a good way to burn out the motor [15:31] ev: do you think you could pluck that out of cjwatson's queue? :) [15:31] Hah [15:31] stokachu: well, it's a bit late to follow up as I already uploaded it ;) but they are definitely good remarks that apply to any SRU [15:31] just digging up the email [15:31] stgraber: ok ill make sure to relay that to arges [15:31] my go then? [15:31] * partner archive work [15:31] * dpkg multiarch triggers syntax fix-up (bug #1015329) [15:31] * internal discussions around SecureBoot [15:31] * meeting last week to discuss structuring the SRU team work effectively [15:31] Launchpad bug 1015329 in dpkg (Ubuntu) "dpkg fails to run after update (error: file triggers record mentions illegal package name `libgtk2.0-0' (for interest in file `/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/immodules'): ambiguous package name 'libgtk2.0-0' with more than one installed instance)" [Critical,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1015329 [15:31] (done) [15:32] any questions? [15:32] ev: quick summary: to support different types per recipe (normal/lvm/lukslvm) the data structure in ubi-partman needs to be extended with multiple recipes per disk / installation method (where method is whole disk, resize, biggest free) [15:32] ev: i wasn't sure what is the best way to go about supporting that. [15:33] slangasek: the SRU team work bit, did that get posted? I saw that skaet promised summaries meeting notes or something. [15:33] xnox: it's possible you'll need to beef up the backend, as some of the guided partitioning methods don't offer a disk choice [15:33] I wouldn't have thought recipes were the first concern though [15:34] xnox: ah, there's a google doc at present [15:34] cjwatson: aha, true. I'll do a prototype and see how it will bullet trace ;-) [15:34] this may be out of place but i think stgraber should get a reward for all the hardwork he's doing between 12.04.1, qa, and dev :D [15:34] I don't know if skaet was planning to post the minutes more publically than that - we all have action items to update the wiki documentation though [15:35] slangasek, I'll put out a cleaned up summary [15:35] ok [15:35] slangasek: ok. fair enough. it was not clear if it was public / only-people-from-the-meeting [15:36] * xnox wonders if skaet lurks in every meeting? =)))) [15:36] stokachu: we'll double stgraber's weekly stipend of kudos ;-) [15:36] lol [15:36] slangasek: Do you know, off-hand, if we can escalate the buildd upgrades any further than they've already been escalated? :P [15:36] or a "kool kat of the week" poster [15:36] :P [15:36] or just a drawing on a sheet of paper would work too [15:36] infinity: last I saw the ticket was waiting for a response from you [15:36] cjwatson: I see your point about concern's priority. it looked to me as the next thing to do, while the design / manual partitioner was pending. [15:37] slangasek: not as of a few minutes ago [15:37] slangasek: Yeah, I responded with a list of "all the buildds". [15:37] ok [15:38] xnox: adding to the above, options and extra_options aren't set in stone, but if you do change them, be careful to make sure you change them everywhere. That code isn't well tested yet. [15:38] And hey, it's an excellent opportunity to build some unit tests in :) [15:38] Yeah [15:38] * xnox ok. thank you guys. [15:38] On all counts [15:38] infinity: it should already be near the top of the priority list then; I can attach a deadline to the ticket if there actually is one [15:38] :) [15:39] [TOPIC] Bugs === meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: Bugs [15:39] slangasek: make one up, everyone else does [15:39] slangasek: Can it be in the past? :P [15:39] bug 1013276 may be fall out from our work [15:39] Launchpad bug 1013276 in update-manager (Ubuntu) "update-manager crashed with ImportError in __main__: No module named UpdateManager.UpdateManager" [High,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1013276 [15:39] infinity: did someone die when we failed to meet it? :-P [15:39] slangasek: it's not desperately high up the list on https://portal.admin.canonical.com/q/ubuntu_engineering though [15:40] On Python 3 porting: I had some feedback on http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=625509 to the effect that Python 3.3 arranges for subprocess.Popen(universal_newlines=True) to influence the handling of stdin as well as of stdout/stderr; so we may need to account for that in work we've done so far.

[15:41] * barry can take a look at the um bugs [15:41] none of this would be an issue if it was all written in lisp :X [15:41] because none of it would be written [15:41] :-P [15:41] stokachu: forth [15:41] LOL [15:42] It's in the same package and everything [15:42] ProcCmdline: /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/update-manager [15:42] Oh [15:42] * xnox hhhmmmm lisp. btw emacs24 still didn't ping the maintainer about the plans [15:42] I wonder what's invoking that with Python 2 [15:42] xnox: let's get emacs24 for q! [15:42] instead of calling it directly? weird [15:42] oh strange I'd missed that [15:43] if only chromium ran within emacs i'd never need a DE again [15:44] Unless I'm misunderstanding - but on my system update-manager is #!/usr/bin/python3.2 [15:44] (which is a bug in itself, that should be #!/usr/bin/python3) [15:44] stokachu: x is just the bagel bringing you the lox of emacs [15:44] I wonder if there is some checking we should do in apport for the InterpreterPath [15:44] ++ [15:44] barry: lol agreed [15:44] I'd assume it's the old update-manager? [15:44] stokachu: there were patches for embedable gtk viewports into emacs windows. So epiphany/gtk-webkit should be doable and there was a demo of that. [15:44] infinity: Package: update-manager 1:0.163 [15:44] which is new [15:44] xnox: sweet im checking that out [15:45] cjwatson: Is this not mid-upgrade?

ANd how would you be ever be running the new update-manager on the old system? [15:46] * xnox thought that upgrade-manager bugs will start appearing in Qunatal -> R upgrades [15:46] the bug report says the system was installed from 12.10 media, so this should be a pretty ordinary situation [15:46] Well, I mean you could start with the old, upgrade, and then have the old attempt to re-exec "itself" with its old cmdline, which would then end up calling the python3 version with python2... *hand wavy random guessing* [15:46] ah, ok. [15:47] can someone follow up to the bug and ask the submitter how u-m was being run? I don't think we want to spend more time in the meeting speculating [15:47] * xnox confused update-manager and upgrade-manager [15:47] infinity: If it re-execs itself, you'd hope it'd honour the #!

I don't think there's going to be a quick answer for you :) [16:05] #endmeeting === meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: Ubuntu Meeting Grounds | Calendar/Scheduled meetings: http://fridge.ubuntu.com/calendar | Logs: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MeetingLogs | Meetingology documentation: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/meetingology [16:05] Meeting ended Wed Jun 20 16:05:09 2012 UTC. [16:05] Minutes (wiki): http://ubottu.com/meetingology/logs/ubuntu-meeting/2012/ubuntu-meeting.2012-06-20-15.01.moin.txt [16:05] Minutes (html): http://ubottu.com/meetingology/logs/ubuntu-meeting/2012/ubuntu-meeting.2012-06-20-15.01.html [16:05] slangasek: sure, I've got one more... [16:05] noooooooo [16:05] eh [16:05] :) [16:05] well spit it out :) [16:05] If anyone has thoughts on the points Robert raised in the 'Quickly getting fixes to users' email, please do follow up. I've directed my attention to other work items for now, but I'm inclined to believe that this idea of providing a local copy of the CA certificate is a workable approach. So more importantly, if you have objections, raise them in that email thread :). [16:05] done! [16:05] slangasek: never mind, I've managed to misunderstand the log twice, even given a comment from me in the bug indicating that I'd misunderstood it previously [16:05] (package installation failures) [16:05] cjwatson: aha :) [16:05] ev: ack, thanks [16:05] and thanks everyone [16:05] thanks! [16:05] thanks! [16:05] thanks [16:05] thanks! [16:06] o/ [16:06] thanks ! [16:06] ev: it's not a dynamic language, I doubt you'll find any approach that *isn't* a giant hack in some way [16:06] thanksssss [16:06] thanks xnox, slangasek, missed that in the scrollback. [16:06] * xnox there is always an odd one [16:06] mocking is kind of one of the things dynamic languages are intrinsically better at [16:06] * xnox was referring to infinity's wave [16:06] cjwatson: yeah, but some hacks are easier to maintain than others, and stuff that requires lots of preprocessor work worries me [16:06] I have no doubt this will not be easy either way :) [16:07] brb [16:07] I would say that you use what facilities present themselves :) [16:07] ev: me wonders if you can do python binding on top for unit testing ;-) [16:07] but I agree that it would be better to test the same objects you're shipping, if possible [16:07] there's always LD_PRELOAD and other such linker tricks [16:08] * xnox used to write unittest binaries, link against the library and make the binary print loads of debug output and assert that output against known good / expected. [16:08] but that's not really helping with ev's case [16:08] gdb script? :-P [16:08] historically I would've said "library interposition", but we've kinda made that useless by defaulting to -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions now === fenris is now known as Guest34289 [16:11] ev: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/65820/unit-testing-c-code third answer down [16:11] talks about mocking with google test framework [16:11] in C [16:11] =/ [16:18] xnox, cjwatson, slangasek: thanks === noy_ is now known as noy === Guest34289 is now known as ejat === bkerensa_ is now known as bkerensa [20:03] sorry, running a bit late [20:03] * MrChrisDruif wonders if Lubuntu will hold a meeting tonight [20:03] MrChrisDruif: are you still on #lubuntu channels? [20:03] phillw; nope [20:03] But I could join and ask [20:04] can you, I'll go check the wiki as to what is due to be discussed [20:04] aka agenda [20:05] Who needs leadership anyway, right? ;-) [20:05] sorry, I'm late [20:06] rafaellaguna; no, you aren't. You're early [20:06] ¿? nobody? [20:06] this is bad, 5 min past hour [20:06] hi rafaellaguna MrChrisDruif is just checking on #lubuntu to see if anyone is coming [20:07] phillw; -offtopic as it's the team channel ;-) [20:07] :) [20:07] MrChrisDruif: anyone there? [20:07] rafaellaguna: I can, and have , hosted meetings before. [20:07] 26, including me....but no responses [20:08] #startmeeting [20:08] Meeting started Wed Jun 20 20:08:07 2012 UTC. The chair is phillw. Information about MeetBot at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/meetingology.

(no such command) [20:10] So, we have MrChrisDruif, bioterror, rafaellaguna only from Lubuntu? [20:10] anybody from Ubuntu? [20:10] this looks like Google+ :D [20:11] #topic Previous Actions === meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: Previous Actions [20:11] * phillw was detailed to provide a set of what a 'QA' admin was required to do. [20:11] #link https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Testing/Administrator [20:12] this has been done. [20:12] must we publish the results anywhere? [20:12] As there are no notes posted from last weeks' meeting & this was dropped on me 2 minutes ago. I don't know if there were any other outstanding actions. [20:13] rafaellaguna: for what? [20:13] leadership [20:13] rafaellaguna: let me change topic? [20:13] sorry [20:13] #topic QA Report === meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: QA Report [20:14] must we make it public? [20:14] QA has been going well, there are some upcoming changes to the iso tracker that will make life of reporting / finding things easier [20:14] rafaellaguna: please be patient? [20:15] sorry again :| [20:15] Julien expects the changes to the default applications to arrive either just before, or shortly after Alpha 2. [20:16] They are doing a lot of work on this, so it should be fairly seemless integration into 12.10. [20:17] I'm also hopeful that the ppc guys will have ffox back as the only available browser available to them (it's that or, go try find one). [20:17] #topic IRC Team === meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: IRC Team [20:17] Hi Unit193 can you give any knews? [20:17] -k [20:18] What type you looking for? The OPs call went well enough, and mostly other thigns are going well. [20:18] Unit193: a nil to report is always good :) [20:18] channel access lists will be harmonized with Launchpad lists soonish, if not already in sync [20:19] have had a few trolls, they've been taken care of [20:19] thanks Myrtti [20:19] #topic wiki / docs === meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: wiki / docs [20:19] kanliot: what hae you to report? [20:19] *have [20:20] going ok [20:20] changes coming up [20:20] again, going okay is always good :) [20:20] going to rework the faq pages into the main lubuntu wiki [20:20] make it easy to find things [20:20] really not doing much collaberation [20:21] Last notice from the previous owner of that group on launchpad: kanliot has been made the new owner. [20:21] thanks MrChrisDruif [20:22] done [20:22] #topic Comms team === meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: Comms team [20:22] is this still dormant? [20:23] yes. [20:23] #topic artwork === meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: artwork [20:23] rafaellaguna: you have the floor! [20:24] :D [20:24] was just a question about leadership, if we have to notice anywhere [20:24] it should be comm stuff, isn't it? [20:24] important: the poll [20:25] rafaellaguna: that will be later in the meeting. How is the artwork & wall paper stuff going for 12.10? [20:25] we have space enough for up to 5 communit wallpapers [20:25] but we have no participation (1 submission) [20:25] any idea? [20:25] yes, i was wondering just how the winners are chosen [20:26] kanlito: I can explain that [20:26] I'd say wait a few days, may get more. [20:26] rafaellaguna: I can only suggest another call to the main mailing list, but we'll come back onto that in Any Other Business. [20:26] i consdered doing a sarcastic walpaper but i had no idea why it would be rejected [20:26] *kanliot [20:26] sarcasm violates the Ubuntu specs [20:26] oh really? [20:26] if any phisic person is involved [20:27] rafaellaguna: well, that's *just great*! [20:27] lol [20:27] I get it :| [20:27] #topic Any Other Business === meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: Any Other Business [20:27] the resut will be decide by "all" the artwork team [20:27] please raise your hands thus o/ [20:28] o/ [20:28] sorry rafaellaguna, I moved your answer, I'll correct it later [20:28] it's not my day :D [20:28] kanliot: you have the floor, please keep it brief [20:29] oh you just said raise your hand [20:29] i thought we were voting on something [20:29] rafaellaguna: this is my 4th meeting. [20:29] sorry go on [20:29] kanliot: for AOB, it is raise your hand if you wish to speak :) [20:30] rafaellaguna: of the day... I want them all to finish soon :D [20:30] :D I know, anyway you're doing great [20:30] So, a call for any other business, any thing that has not been covered, any topics you'd like for next time etc. et.c [20:31] going once..... [20:31] going twice ..... [20:32] rafaellaguna: you wanted to say something about leadership issues? [20:32] speak now or forever hold your peace [20:32] *now* is the time for that [20:32] YES! [20:32] I a bit lost about it [20:32] thanks Myrtti I thought he'd never chime in :) [20:33] rafaellaguna: please explain it how you see it at the moment [20:33] we have a leader, a team coordinator or both? [20:34] The mailing list is a mess, but dev, forum, IRC, and artwork seem to still function well, just need to get the meetings working and it's set, no? (As well as mailing list) [20:34] Unit193: it seems so [20:35] so there's no need for "elections" [20:35] rafaellaguna: mailing lists, are mailing lists. If I were to be brutally honest, I'd have removed myself. [20:35] same thing, month in, month out. [20:35] phillw: :D [20:35] but, let me give a different prospective. [20:36] > The lack of leadership at the moment seems to be harming Lubuntu. [20:36] I'm curious, what harm exactly ? [20:36] It's not because people don't write on the ml or don't participate to the useless top posting debate that nothing is done in the background. [20:36] Regards, [20:36] Julien Lavergne [20:36] (Not all mailing lists are that bad, but I'm staying silent now) [20:36] I think exactly the same, but you said (right) there's a lot of mess [20:36] I remain on the Lubuntu-QA mailing list, we are getting along without this "spam", but, a general ML is for that. [20:37] so we're fine [20:37] noise is one thing, confusion is another [20:37] All sub teams have a ML, and we all know who we are. [20:37] once purged the noise [20:37] agree [20:38] rafaellaguna: You may recall I actually checked on QA to ask why the silence was on it.... it was because they had nothing to report. [20:39] like us, we're working "in background" but working [20:40] I'd love to see that 'stuff' go to, say the area on face book that we have, but until they do. I just glance through the emails and, like facebook, see if there is anything worth replying to. [20:41] I was, however, amused when they suggested new mailing list groups for areas :D [20:41] yes, I saw [20:41] Please remember this is still during a meeting. [20:41] I even answered [20:42] i'm not happy with the level of leadership [20:42] Unit193: I see no reason for it be disbarred from A-O-B. in a meeting. It is the chance, on A-O-B for people to chat? [20:43] at the very least i want somone around, who gets to quote rules of the mailing list to other people [20:43] but, with a complaint... those in favour of ending the meeting now, please vote as +1 (end) 0 (not bothered) -1 (keep meeting open) [20:44] #vote [20:44] Please vote on: [20:44] Public votes can be registered by saying +1, +0 or -1 in channel, (private votes don't work yet, but when they do it will be by messaging the channel followed by +1/-1/+0 to me) [20:44] +1 [20:44] 0 [20:45] anyone else care to vote? [20:45] going once..... [20:45] going twice ....

[23:14] Do we have a quorum? - me/you = not [23:14] I think we need 4 FC for a quorum. [23:20] I posted a quick thread in SCC [23:22] Thanks Iowan [23:26] =o [23:30] Iowan, CharlesA, could you pass on my apologies if anything ever happens? 00:30 here. I'm going. [23:31] Thanks for the attempt... I was afraid I had the wrong time. [23:32] Definitely the correct time. [23:33] overdrank, coffeecat was just leaving. [23:33] I heard sorry I am late [23:33] You aren't alone :) [23:33] Meeting hasn't started [23:34] ... but it may be finished [23:35] Looks like a reschedule is in order. [23:35] yep [23:42] It's family night @ Scout camp. I gotta go get ready for program. [23:42] have fun
