infinityslangasek: When you play kernel SRU monkey, you should update tasks in the tracking bugs (and, in the case of ABI bumps, fix overrides when the packages all land in the wrong places).00:52
infinityslangasek: I've done both for you.00:52
slangasekinfinity: right; I had meant to double-back and look at ABIs after the binaries landed but didn't get to it, so thanks01:03
infinityslangasek: *nod*... If nothing else, twiddling the tasks as soon as you accept is helpful, cause if you forget to do the overrides, the bot will yell at you later. ;)01:04
infinityslangasek: But it won't do its scan-and-be-grumpy dance until someone twiddles the copy task.01:04
slangasekinfinity: where are the necessary bug-twiddling changes documented?01:04
slangasekpending-sru points at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ArchiveAdministration#Copying_PPA_kernels_to_proposed, which doesn't seem to apply anymore01:05
slangasekwhen the kernel team sync, the *only* thing you get in the queue is an ack/nack button on the sync01:05
infinityThat does kinda mention tracking bugs, but yeah, it doesn't seem to mention what to do about them. :P01:06
infinityAnd yes, syncs are very opaque, it's a known misfeature in LP.01:06
infinityIdeally, not only would they be more transparent, but they'd also let us override in the queue.01:07
infinityI do believe there are bugs open for both.01:07
slangasekah right; I skimmed over that section of the instructions on account of it not having any useful links, and me not having a useful .changes file :)01:07
infinityThat wiki bit should probably be updated to have a reference to http://status.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/kernel-bugs/reports/sru-report.html01:08
infinityWhich nicely hilights tracking bugs (the magnifying glass), and such.01:08
slangasekthanks for volunteering to update it ;)01:09
infinityI'm allergic to wikis.01:13
infinity(opening the editor window...)01:14
infinityI can't help but think the kernel team had this all documented somewhere...01:17
infinityOh, right, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/kernel-sru-workflow01:18
infinity(As referenced in every tracking bug)01:19
slangasekright01:19
slangasekthe tracking bug I couldn't find ;D01:19
infinityCheck.01:19
infinityslangasek: There, have some "I'm not a tech writer" documentation.01:25
infinityI'm tempted to just tear the whole section out and replace it with a few lines.01:25
infinity"Reports here, if broken, fix overrides, don't do bad things, if do bad things, fix bad things."01:26

seb128^ sorry about the nux screwups, GUADEC internet fail, I uploaded several times because it didn't seem to go through11:04
