ogra_cjwatson, does that look right ? http://paste.ubuntu.com/1058761/08:41
ogra_(or should the arm arches just be added to the bottom line of the file ?)08:43
cjwatsonogra_: No, better not, as that would affect all flavours.  That patch looks fine to me, except please sort the architecture names in the second chunk08:44
ogra_alphabetically ?08:44
cjwatsonYes08:44
ogra_k08:44
cjwatson(Well, I suppose we could override it in all flavours, but ARM is probably still sufficiently special that it's better not to I think)08:45
ogra_yeah, and flavours might not like the additional build time for their manual builds08:45
jibelquantal server and alternate failed to install automatically due to a warning. I filed bug 101739809:09
ubot2Launchpad bug 1017398 in debian-installer "Quantal Server and alternate installation failed with error "Failed to retrieve InRelease"" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/101739809:09
cjwatsonThanks09:12
cjwatsonWill fix once I have updated images handy09:13
Davieyhah, i was just about to look into that myself.. Super!10:13
cjwatsonYeah, sorry for delay, had a phone call, but on it10:23
cjwatsonjdstrand: So, I'm tantalisingly close to having Archive.copyPackage work for you guys - not quite there as I missed a piece in what got deployed this morning (so don't try to use the shiny new unembargo=True flag yet as it won't work), but nearly10:28
cjwatsonjdstrand: However, as it stands, the copies will land in the queue and require an archive admin to accept them, which I don't think will be acceptable10:28
cjwatsonjdstrand: Do you think it would be sufficient for this to fix bug 648611 and grant ubuntu-security queue admin on the security pocket (which realistically is basically the current policy, just implemented extremely oddly), which would require you to manually accept the copies; or do I need to fix bug 1006871 somehow as well?10:29
ubot2Launchpad bug 648611 in launchpad "ubuntu-sru either have too much or too little permission as queue admins" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/64861110:29
ubot2Launchpad bug 1006871 in launchpad "Copying packages to -updates always goes through unapproved queue, even when copying user is privileged" [Low,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/100687110:29
cjwatsonjdstrand: I'd like to kill off unembargo-package.py and the hack that lets you use Archive.syncSource ASAP, but obviously not at the cost of getting in the way of security updates10:32
jdstrandcjwatson: not looking super-closely at the bugs-- if 648611 allows us to use to maintain our autonomy, I think that is fine. I've already added some output to our script for approving things and that is acceptable (if a mild nuisance)12:02
jdstrands/to use//12:02
jdstrandthat could have been a clearer sentence. aiui, fixing 648611 should be enough12:03
cjwatsonjdstrand: OK, thanks.  FWIW I do already have a branch up for review that adds sufficient API that the worst case would be that the script would have to poll for a minute or two until it can accept the copy for you12:11
jdstrandcjwatson: so, I have a libreoffice and oo.o update that I plan to push today. would you like me to try to use copyPackage on it?12:12
jdstrandcjwatson: (not for testing the unapproved bits, but the other parts)12:13
cjwatsonjdstrand: No, you can't yet12:14
jdstrandok12:14
cjwatson"not quite there as I missed a piece in what got deployed this morning", as above12:14
cjwatsonThe fix for that has been reviewed but needs to go through test suite, landing, QA, deployment12:15
jdstrandoh, I quickly read that 648611 was said piece12:15
cjwatsonNo, that one's separate12:20
cjwatsonThe bit that was broken was that my initial attempt had a bug which caused mail notifications to crash after the restricted files were unrestricted, because they were trying to get at uncommitted librarian files12:21
cjwatsonSo I'm moving the privacy update after mail notifications instead, since anything else is unspeakably cumbersome12:21
cjwatsonIf you try to use copyPackage(unembargo=True) right now it'll just crash when trying to run the copy job12:22
jdstrandI see12:23
cjwatsonThat'll hopefully be fixed by tomorrow, depending on buildbot runtime and such12:23
jdstrandcjwatson: thanks for all your work on this btw :)12:23
cjwatsonnp, I will get considerable LP LoC credit out of it ;-)12:23
jdstrand:)12:23
cjwatsonNot to mention the ability to actually understand the copy code once it's about half the size12:24
cjwatsonI'd be well up for you doing a test run once a fixed version is deployed; I guess that would at least be enough to remove unembargo-package.py, since you're only using that as a fallback right now12:24
cjwatsonAnd we can keep Archive.syncSource around until you have more self-service queue admin12:26
jdstrandcjwatson: I'll be off Tu-Th, but feel free to ask mdeslaur to coordinate that with a member of my team12:26
cjwatsonOK, cool12:26

dobeyso, have we dropped the alpha freezes, or does the soft freeze happen at the end of today?14:34
skaetdobey,  switch over to using -proposed will happen later today14:38
cjwatsonWhere's the Launchpad branch for that?14:38
dobeyok14:38
cjwatsonOr the ubuntu-archive-tools branch/commit14:38
skaetcjwatson,  thought we'd follow the same pattern as A114:38
skaetissue?14:39
cjwatsonAbsent code to direct (a) auto-syncs and (b) uploads to -proposed, it'll be ineffective14:39
cjwatsonThis is in a relevant blueprint somewhere ...14:39
cjwatsonThe pattern for A1 was for people to upload to -proposed basically on the honour system, which sort of works some of the time but is not desperately effective and is certainly cumbersome14:40
skaetnot as effective as we'd like,  but at least doesn't block some of the larger builds from progressing.14:40
cjwatsonSo as long as that's understood, fine14:40
cjwatsonI thought you meant something stronger14:40
skaetno,  very much understand our infrastructure is not in place yet for that.14:40
cjwatsonOK14:40
cjwatsonHah, I was just getting ready to QA that14:47
cjwatsonless work for meeeee14:48
Davieystgraber: In the ISO tracker, "Quantal Alpha 2" and "Quantal Daily" should both be in the Testing state, right?15:02

stgraberDaviey: yep. Whenever cron is disabled on nusakan and you start building new images, I usually mark the daily milestone as archived or released so people don't try and look for dailies when we aren't building them15:23

Davieystgraber: ok, thanks.15:25

skaetev,  cjwatson - does it make sense to put out WUBI images this milestone?   looks like the same problem we had in A1 is still there. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/100956416:27
ubot2Ubuntu bug 1009564 in wubi "Quantal Ubuntu Wubi failed to install" [Critical,Confirmed]16:27
skaetDaviey, ^16:27
Laney..16:28
cjwatsonI have no opinion on the matter16:28
Laneyerr, no16:28
cjwatsonOne way to form an opinion might be to try to find out whether only jibel is affected or whether it's widespread16:28
cjwatsonThat bug only has one person marked as affected16:28
evskaet: seems like more of a question for the kernel team. I'd rather not kick the can down the road, but I'm not sure how much is involved in fixing it.16:29
skaetballoons,  ^ do you know if anyone else has tested WUBI, and its not been makred.16:29
evbut I agree with cjwatson that we should first see how much of an issue it is.16:29
balloonsnot for alpha 2 to my knowlede16:29
DavieyI think it's reasonable to ship it for the Alpha series, with a Potentially known issue on the Release notes, requesting further confirmation. No?16:30
balloonsalthough people weren't successful @ alpha 116:30
balloonsremember :-)16:30
skaetDaviey,   we didn't ship it for Alpha 1,  so getting more data right now seems prudent.16:30
DavieyIf we withhold something that we think could have issues, then we won't get the exposure to confirm it.16:30
skaetballoons,  yeah its the alpha 1 data (or since then) we're trying to figure out about WUBI.   Was there any testing in last week's set?16:31
balloonsto wubi, none to my knowledge16:31
skaetDaviey,  its more that if its still broke, and there isn't a fix likely, so we want to waste folks time....16:31
balloonstypically have to go ask for that :-)16:31
cjwatsonskaet: seems like we ought to verify the assumption in that first clause by getting somebody else to double-check16:32
skaetballoons,  can you see if we find someone to help double check if the issue is still there?16:32
skaetcjwatson,  yes16:32
balloonsyes, I'll ask to have it looked @ again16:33
skaetthanks balloons16:33
ogasawaraskaet: v3.5-rc4 was released yesterday and we've already rebased our Quantal kernel.  I'd like to squeeze in an upload in time for A2.  When would be the latest we could upload?  The reason I ask is there is also a bugfix for arm I'm told is getting addressed and should be fixed by tomorrow.  Would an upload tomorrow morning be too late?16:38
skaetogasawara,  we'll switch over to using -proposed at 2100,  upload today would be better if possible, since the image testing will start tomorrow AM.   I suspect its going to be a case of upload when its ready, and we'll decide if we respin or not for it,  when its there.16:42
skaetogasawara,  is there a bug number for the arm fix?16:53
jibelskaet, wubi r270 with disk image 20120625 is ok. Same system that was failing on A1.16:59
jibelI'll update and close the bug report17:00
Davieyogasawara: can you comment if it's an ABI change?17:04
ogasawaraskaet: ack, I'll check with ppisati for a bug# and let you know17:05
ogasawaraDaviey: it will be an ABI bump17:05
DavieyIf the kernel goes via -proposed.. cjwatson, we'll need a d-i no-change rebuild, right?17:08
cjwatsonDaviey: Yes, though it doesn't strictly have to be in the same block migrated to release as the old ABI will stick around in NBS until d-i is done17:27
xnoxif anything e2fsprogs update raises, please do not hesitate to get in touch with me17:47
xnoxI would like some pieces of text to be included in the Apha 2 announce in relation to many updates in the filesystems stack19:04
xnoxWhere / How do I submit these for inclusion?19:04
skaetxnox,  please put them in the QuantalQuetzal/TechnicalOverview/Alpha2 wiki page19:06
xnoxskaet: ok, thanks19:07
xnoxskaet: it's not symlinked from the release schedule, will fix that as well.... unless it's done as an milestone release step on thursday?19:07
skaetxnox,  link didn't go in to schedule until after its released,  but with the recent changes (ie. we are using TechnicalOverview/Alpha2 rather than just TechnicalOverview),  we can do it now.   Its a good idea.19:09
xnoxskaet: ok.19:09
xnoxskaet: Please spell check / technical language check https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QuantalQuetzal/TechnicalOverview/Alpha2#Filesystem_Stack19:21
skaetxnox,  will do when I tak my next pass over it.   Thanks!  :)19:21
xnoxskaet: you should subscribe to the page, to get spammed =))))19:22
skaetxnox,  usually do,  just hadn't remembered yet.  Thanks for the reminder, done.19:23
skaet:)19:23
xnoxskaet: ok, I'm done now for the day. Good luck rick-rolling & spinning the cd bundle =)19:25
bdrungScottK: desktop-file-utils is accepted in precise-proposed, but audacity not?19:35
ScottKbdrung: Yes.  Do they have to go together?19:36
seb128they don't, but having that specific issue resolved requires both sides19:39
bdrungScottK: it make sense to combine them19:39
seb128it will not break anything having only desktop-file-utils though19:39
seb128d-f-u specify which handle to pick if there are several options19:39
bdrungseb128: but can it be tested without the patch for audacity?19:39
seb128the audacity part adds audacity as an option19:39
ScottKI had time to review one this morning and d-f-u was easy.19:40
seb128bdrung, by hacking locally the audacity .desktop yes ;-)19:40
seb128ScottK, that was still useful, the libreoffice bug has already been verification-done ;-)19:40
seb128the audacity one can be confirmed later, the update has to stay a week in proposed anyway19:41
ScottKYeah.19:41
ScottKActually the audacity one is pretty easy too.  Accepting.19:41
ScottKslangasek: speaking as a VERY new member of ubuntu-sru, I agree with your assessment about delegations.20:13
slangasekScottK: ack20:16
micahgskaet: about the release announcement, shouldn't the stuff about making stuff uninstallable go before the other stuff in the list?  It seems to read that milestone bug fixes even if they make something uninstallable can go to the release pocket21:37
* micahg forgot if he mentioned this last time21:37
cjwatsonI assume that I should not run auto-syncs for a while21:41
skaetcjwatson21:41
skaetcjwatson,  yes that was going to be my request in the channel.21:41
skaetmicahg,   I'll post the rules on the pad, and put it in the order you indicate there.21:42
cjwatsonEasy enough to do21:42
cjwatsonOr not to do21:43
skaetexactly.  :)21:43
