RAOFThe xorg-server that's about to land in quantal-proposed should not be copied out of there until the rest of the stack has been uploaded and built.03:51
RAOFBut no one would do that, anyway, because until that happens it'll be obvious that the archive won't be installable :)03:52
tkamppeterYesterday I discussed the CUPS SRU with infinity because the SRU has 5 of 6 bugs verified and the reporter of the remaining bug does not answer. The conclusion is what I have written in comment #79 of bug 973270. Infinity wanted to pass cups to -updates. He did not do so (forgotten?). Can someone pass the CUPS SRU to -updates?07:04

tkamppeterseb128, are you in the release team?08:29
seb128tkamppeter, no, why?08:33
tkamppeterseb128, yesterday I have talked with infinity here about the CUPS SRU and he told me that he wanted to move it to -updates but he did not do so.08:34

tkamppetercjwatson, hi11:10
cjwatsonI'm in a coffee shop today, can't do anything particularly complex11:11
cjwatsonIn any case *please* don't send me contentless pings :)11:11
tkamppetercjwatson, yesterday I have talked with infinity here about the CUPS SRU and he told me that he wanted to move it to -updates but he did not do so.11:30
tkamppetercjwatson, can you move it to -updates?11:31
cjwatsonI'd rather leave that to infinity if he already has context - my net access here is very slow and it will be difficult to go through bugs.  infinity said "I'll look into it more", not "I'll do it".11:32
cjwatsonSo I don't want to jump into the middle of that if he just got interrupted thinking about it.11:33

zulcan an archive admin please review python-django-compressor, python-django-appconf, and python-warlock it will make horizon installable again (and ill buy them a beer when I see them next)12:43
zulthey have been sitting in binary-new for a while12:44
cjwatsonzul: Why not licence debian/* under the same terms as the upstream source, which is recommended practice?12:52
zulcjwatson: oh i wasnt aware of that, i can fix that up though12:53
cjwatsonpython-django-compressor looks like it needs to mention the Apache 2.0 licence of rjsmin.py in debian/copyright to13:00
cjwatsono13:01
cjwatsonzul: oh, and typo in debian/rules, "get-orig-soruce"13:02
skaetcjwatson,  would you mind reviewing http://paste.ubuntu.com/1120535/?13:02
cjwatsonbut that lot's minor, so accepting -django-compressor13:02
zulcjwatson: ill fix that up in the next upload13:02
cjwatsonskaet: could I have a diff against the current crontab?13:02
skaetcjwatson,  sure,  doing13:03
cjwatsonskaet: also, we should never be using ARCHES= in crontab13:04
cjwatsonit's hard to maintain and etc/default-arches should be sufficient13:04
skaetcjwatson, http://paste.ubuntu.com/1121384/13:06
cjwatsonzul: for python-warlock using the same licence as upstream is even more important because Apache-2.0 and GPL-2 are incompatible13:06
zulcjwatson:  do you want to reject it do i can update it?13:07
cjwatsonzul: it barely scrapes through as distributable because debian/* is GPL-2+, and Apache-2.0 and GPL-3 are compatible - but still, better to keep it simple13:07
cjwatsonso this isn't a reject, but a licence change in -0ubuntu2 would be good, IMO13:07
zulcjwatson: ack13:08
cjwatsonskaet: sorry, I should have said - diff -u is basically always lots easier to read than plain diff13:08
cjwatsonold-style diffs are there for compatibility but they're awful :)13:09
skaetcjwatson,  no worries,  here you go: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1121396/13:11
cjwatsonskaet: as far as I can make out, the ARCHES= bits there are equivalent to http://paste.ubuntu.com/1121399/ in etc/default-arches13:12
cjwatsonI think people have said that changing default-arches is a bit awkward because we can't easily see the state at release, but hey, it's in bzr13:12
cjwatsonand then drop the ARCHES= throughout and it should be a more readable diff13:13
cjwatson"buildlive kubuntu dvd precise" needs to be "buildlive kubuntu-dvd dvd precise" so that it puts the right bits in the squashfs13:13
skaetcjwatson,   sorry,   didn't make the changes between the two version,  just did the diff -u,  I'll work on adding the ARCHES to the defaults,  just wanted to see if there was something else that needed fixing...  (which there appears to be ;) )13:14
cjwatsonright.  I think the diff I pasted should be fine for that13:15
cjwatsonI don't see any other problems :)13:15
cjwatsoncoo, xorriso supports mac/efi hybrids now13:15
cjwatsonI wonder if I can get us onto that for quantal13:16
skaetcjwatson,  the changes to etc/default-arches matches expectations.    ARCHES pulled, kubuntu-dvd added.   http://paste.ubuntu.com/1121414/13:22
cjwatsonskaet: great.  looks good to me now.13:25
cjwatsonshall I just commit my default-arches changes directly since I have them here?13:25
skaetthanks cjwatson,   yes,  please commit your default-arches,  will save me recreating it.13:26
skaetI'll upload after you finish13:26
cjwatsonskaet: done13:27
skaetcjwatson,  new  version committed and pushed,  now at 147513:48
cjwatsonskaet: cool, pulled.  do you know why the mythbuntu quantal daily build is commented out in the live crontab but not in bzr?13:52
ogra_just fyi, i just changed the boot code for omap/omap4 in debian-cd and run a server testbuild now13:52
ogra_ah, done already, that was faster than i thought, ignore the noise :)13:53
skaetcjwatson,  hmm,  oversite from A3.   They aren't participating the milestones,  but daily should be turned back on.   (not releasing with 12.10, but participating in 12.04.1)13:54
cjwatsonOK, odd that live and bzr were ever allowed to get out of sync though, even so13:54
cjwatsonmaybe it would be simpler to arrange for mythbuntu dailies not to be posted to the tracker for quantal, so that we can leave the dailies enabled and not worry about them?13:55
stgraberI don't know the details but maybe they want the dailies to post to the daily milestone on the tracker, but not to any "real" milestone13:57
cjwatsonmm, trickier because cdimage doesn't know the current milestone (it lets u-a-t worry about that)13:58
cjwatsonah well, not important for now13:59
dpmhi, is there anyone from the SRU team who can sponsor jbicha's ubuntu-docs upload to precise-proposed? We need this upload to be able to prepare the language packs for 12.04.1, and any help would be appreciated. Here's the associated bug14:14

stgraberdpm: why do you need someone from the SRU team to sponsor an upload?14:15
dpmstgraber, I'm not familiar with the process, so if it's not the SRU team, then whoever who can sponsor the upload would do :)14:16
stgraberdpm: yeah, anyone with upload rights can do it. I'm taking a quick look now14:16
dpmexcellent, thanks stgraber!14:17
stgraberdpm: failed to build locally but might be a problem with my environment, pushing to a PPA for test build, if that works I'll push to quantal + precise-proposed14:26
dpmstgraber, thanks. Would you mind keeping me up to date on how it goes? Once ubuntu-docs is in precise-proposed, I'd like to start building the language packs tomorrow, so that they can be ready by the 2nd.14:28
stgraberdpm: well, you'll need an SRU team member to approve it to -proposed before that, the queue for that is almost 30 packages long last I checked, so might need some direct poking to get it processed before the others14:29

babyface_anybody know why there are no builds for  quantal desktop ?16:50
stgraberlet me check16:50
babyface_stgraber,  ok thanks.16:51
stgrabercron job is there, so it might be that it failed, checking the logs16:52
infinitylivefs builds went fine.16:53
stgraberyeah, livefs looks good but debian-cd never ran16:53
stgraberat least, I don't see a daily-live log for 2012073116:54
infinitywell, Colin and Oli were both fiddling with debian-cd yesterday.16:55
infinityOr today, or whatever.16:55
stgraberok, I'll try to re-run just the debian-cd part of the build, see what happens...16:55
stgraberrunning16:56
babyface_thanks guys.  normally, how long will it take to finish the build ?16:57
stgrabershould just be a few minutes as I'm not rebuilding the livefs, just the .iso16:58
babyface_stgraber, ack. thanks.16:58
infinitystgraber: The complete lack of logfile at all is a bit weird.17:00
infinitystgraber: And the reason is because buildlive is still running. :P17:01
infinity21663 ?        S      0:00 ssh -n -o StrictHostKeyChecking no -o BatchMode yes buildd@royal.buildd /home/buildd/bin/BuildLiveCD -l -A powerpc -d quantal lubuntu17:01
stgraberthat's lubuntu17:01
infinityOh, so it is.17:01
infinityMentally filtered the 'l'17:01
stgraberhehe :)17:01
infinityBut... No logfile seems nearly impossible to manage, with the set of files that have been edited recently.17:02
infinityMaybe I'm missing an interim edit where someone briefly broke the world at just the wrong time.17:02
* infinity shrugs.17:02
stgraberthe only logical explenation would be a messed up crontab at the time the build started, anything else should have sent a failure e-mail (either debian-cd or cron)17:03
stgraberhmm, though MAILTO isn't set in the crontab, so I'm not exactly sure who would be notified of a failure (that's not handled by one of the other e-mail)17:04
infinityIt would be in ubuntu-archive's spool.17:08
infinityErr, in cdimage's.17:08
stgraberwhich appears to be empty... odd17:09
infinityIt's not empty.17:09
infinityBut it certainly has no failure mails after the livefs build.17:09
stgraberoh, is "mail" lying to me (or it's just me not remembering how that stuff works ;))17:10
infinityOh, wait.17:10
infinityI didn't scroll far enough up. :P17:10
infinitylockfile: Sorry, giving up on "/srv/cdimage.ubuntu.com/etc/.lock-build-image-set-ubuntu-daily-live"17:10
infinityAnother image set is already building!17:10
skaet?17:11
infinitySo, stale lock from someone fiddling, I assume.17:11
infinityMystery solved.17:11
stgraberoh, fun, apparently "mail -u cdimage" isn't the same as "mail"... go figure17:11
infinityI just read the spool raw with 'less'.17:12
stgraberthat works too ;)17:12

skaetstgraber, infinity - have synched the crontab up with the version in cdimage/etc/crontab that contains the precise daily builds now.17:30
infinityHrm?17:32
infinityprecise daily builds were already running.17:32
infinityOr, so my mail told me.17:32
skaetinfinity,  not for all the images on the manifest for 12.04.117:32
skaetand some of the archs that were showing up on the precise dailies  weren't needed either, and just consuming arm/powerpc cycles for no reason.17:33
skaetcjwatson made some changes to the default-arches file earlier as well, as part of this.17:34
* infinity sees that.17:34
skaetso,  it should all nicely match the 12.04.1 manifest now.17:35
* stgraber prepares for the easiest MIR ever, zram-config19:49
stgraberinfinity: hmm, did you notice all the install failure bugs against zram-config?19:52
infinitystgraber: Erm.  I don't even understand how it's possible that people upgrading from oneiric are upgrading zram-config, when it didn't exist previously...19:56
infinitystgraber: Probably doesn't help that some of them are mix-and-matching it with some random PPA package.20:02
ogra_why does it suddenly show up on main images and needs a MIR ?20:02
infinityogra_: It's not being pulled in by anything...20:02
infinitystgraber: Why is it being MIRed?20:02
stgraberogra_,infinity: I want to depend on it from ltsp-client20:03
ogra_right, the only image actually using it is ac10020:03
ogra_stgraber, ah !20:03
stgraberogra_: we discussed it at the LTSP session at UDS, we killed the compcache code a while back but never replaced that by the zram equivalent20:03
infinitystgraber: Well, I have a mail from the "random PPA zram package" guy about trying to consolidate them.20:04
infinitystgraber: But I think both should go away, and we should fix the zram bits in initramfs-tools (which I didn't know existed when I did zram-config)20:04
stgraberthat'd work too20:04
ogra_oh, i remember20:04
stgraberat least until we try to get rid of the initramfs ;)20:05
stgraber(which isn't likely to ever happen for LTSP considering how much stuff we do in the initramfs ;))20:05
infinityWell, I could pull it out of initramfs and turn it into a hybrid hook.20:05
infinity(ie: something that runs from either initramfs or the base system, but not both)20:06
infinityI dunno.  I haven't put much thought into it, since it "just works" for me.20:06
infinityThe problems for people with conflicting packages are obvious, but some of the bug reports don't seem to fall into that category, so a bit of investigation here might be worthwhile.20:07
stgraberyeah, it also "just works" here and I'm pretty sure it'll also just work for LTSP without causing extra bug reports as it's a pretty well controlled environment (auto generated chroot that people usually don't mess with)20:08
infinityDoes ltsp rely on tmpfses in any meaningful way?20:08
stgraberyeah20:08
infinityI might have hit a curious kernel bug here where swapping a tmpfs to zram causes explosions.20:09
stgraberas in, we don't have persistent storage and use tmpfs for everything ;)20:09
infinityI need to figure out a solid reproducer so I can debug and lay blame.20:09
infinityBut if what I suspect is happening is happening, that could be a bit of a blocker for you.20:09
stgraberyeah, I can see some people finding this annoying ;)20:10
stgraberso far I've been mostly using zram on my swap-less systems which tend to have a lot of RAM and not using much tmpfs, thin clients are kind of the opposite of that, so booting a 64MB thin client might be interesting ;)20:11
infinityYeah.  I have a ton of RAM, but I eat it all for tmpfs builds.20:11
infinityAnd I can't be positive without a controlled test case, but I *think* my oopses and panics are hitting at around the point where the tmpfs would be swapping.20:12
infinityWhich would be when the kernel then tries to free some RAM for zram, so it can swap the tmpfs.20:12
infinityWhch all should work, in theory, but...20:12
infinitySo many moving parts.20:12
infinityMaybe I can boot with MEM=$something_small and try to get a solid reproducer.20:14
infinityBut that sounds like something I don't want to do today. :P20:14
jbichaaw, android-tools looked kinda useful20:16
infinityhttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zram-config/+bug/956859 is weird too.20:17
ubot2Ubuntu bug 956859 in zram-config "zram-config terminates with status 2. zram swaps not enabled" [Undecided,Confirmed]20:17
infinityWaitaminute.20:18
infinitystgraber: I wonder if some/many of the upgrade bugs are due to people loading the zram module manually, perhaps in something like /etc/modules.20:18
infinitystgraber: Would explain the "using defaults" sort of message in the above bug.20:18
stgraberyeah, so I guess you may want to check for zram being already loaded in pre-start and "echo 'something vaguely useful' && stop" if that's the case20:21
stgrabershould be better than failing20:21
infinityHrm.20:21
infinityAlso could be people without /usr mounted?20:21
infinity(I use free(1) in the init job, which is in /usr/bin)20:21
infinityBut... Runlevel [2345] should guarantee /usr, surely.20:21
infinityMeh.  Anyhow, I should look at the PPA package, consolidate any good ideas he has, and add a Conflict to the package, at least.20:23
ScottKPublisher broken?20:34

tumbleweedsure. That sounds like something I just need to tell it to look at20:47
micahgjdstrand: alternatively, if poxml doesn't have interdependencies on the rest of kdesdk, it could be packaged separately (might be acceptable to Debian as well)20:47
ScottKmicahg: It's part of KDE.20:48
ScottKIt won't be acceptable to split the source in Debian, I can guarantee you.20:48
micahgScottK: right, but it's a tool usable outside of KDE as well20:48
ScottKmicahg: Yes.  So is everything that's not part of the libs/workspace.20:49
micahgah, the binary is already usable without the bulk of stuff, so it's just a main/universe issue which needs to go away, nevermind :)20:49
ScottKIt's a separate binary package, so from a Debian perspective there's zero incentive to split the source and it's a maintenance burden.20:50
ScottKYeah.20:50
