mpt_ev, I'm pretty sure the dip on the errors.ubuntu.com graph for the current day is because it's not dividing by the elapsed proportion of the day08:30
mpt_ev, we weren't sure about that before because the dip didn't seem as big as it should be if that was the reason08:30
evmpt_: I thought we tried factoring that in and it swung wildly in the other direction?08:31
evI can't remember the numbers to back that up08:31
mpt_But the dip isn't as big as it should be because of the wrong-denominator problem -- at the very start of the day it's 108:31
mpt_So our correction probably put it up to ~24 at the very start of the day, explaining the wild swing :-)08:32
mpt_Once the denominator is right, the correction will work too.08:32
evwell, it all goes away once we fix the denominator, as that calculation cannot be made in realtime. So the data will only go as far as the day past.08:32
evyup08:32
mpt_oh, true08:33
mpt_Well, it *could* be made in real time, it would just be a lot of work08:33

jamespageany autoconf gurus around? struggling to see how 'if test "$HAVE_SYS_SOCKET_H"; then' in an acinclude.m4 would ever work10:19
cjwatsonjamespage: That does look wonky since $HAVE_SYS_SOCKET_H is 0 if you don't have the header, and test "anything_non_empty" is true.10:25
cjwatsonThe usual version would be test "$HAVE_SYS_SOCKET_H" = 110:26
jamespagecjwatson, that is what is confusing me; the header is checked for using AC_CHECK_HEADERS10:27
jamespagecjwatson, that is then used to wrap a call to AC_EGREP_HEADER to check for a feature10:28
jamespagebut it never gets executed :-(10:28
jamespagecjwatson, I can't see $HAVE_SYS_SOCKET_H getting set at all (although the #define doe get set correctly)10:29

cjwatsonOK :)10:36
jamespagecheck should be looking for "$ac_cv_header_sys_socket_h"10:39

xnoxpcarrier: while it is useful, it was a pain to depend on. My package would randomly start segfaulting after e.g. security update to xulrunner and my package had to be rebuild, bumping exact version mathing xulrunner stings each time.12:03
xnoxpcarrier: plus xulrunner is abandoned upstream and is no longer updated/released/supported/security-supported12:04

mptev, any ETA for the next rollout? Or are you still working on the 90-day actives?14:23
evmpt: one just happened, but I'm still working on the 90 days stuff14:23
evthe greyed out lines are there though14:23
evlet me know what you think14:23
evI need to get a better caching deployment done today too14:24
evas we're not paying any attention to etags from launchpad at the moment14:24
jodhxnox: that logic assumes jobs specify an explicit 'stop on' condition; if they don't, they are in limbo land as sendsigs ignores them FWICS. Therefore sendsigs is making a potentially incorrect assumption (upstart_jobs() should parse 'initctl show-config' for each job and check if it does have a 'stop on' before omitting it).14:31
xnoxjodh: ah. ok. it's just mdmon should still be running after rootfs is unmounted, otherwise mdmon will not manage to stop the underlying RAID array14:32
xnoxwhich is hosting the rootfs for example.14:32
xnoxand mdmon is spawned/started automatically by mdadm, i.e. the udev rule. so it's ok if the pid is in the sendsigs and there is no upstart job.14:33

barrytyhicks: maybe i don't and didn't know it18:55
barrytyhicks: anyway, let me play around with it and see18:56
tyhicksjdstrand: Do you know if /etc/schroot/script-get-ddebs is only for umt?18:56
tyhicksbarry: The core of the problem is that schroot deprecated the script-config option in schroot.conf, in favor of the profile option, and then /etc/schroot/ was shuffled around to match that18:57
tyhicksbarry: That's all you need to work around18:57
barrytyhicks, jdstrand: maybe if i don't use umt, i don't need script-config at all and can just comment it out?18:58
tyhicksbarry: That's what I'm wondering, as well. I don't know the history of script-get-ddebs well enough to say for sure though :/18:59
jdstrandtyhicks: ah sorry-- script-get-ddebs shouldn't strictly be needed even for umt18:59
tyhicksjdstrand: Is it needed at all anymore?18:59
jdstrandit is just there to snag the ddebs19:00
jdstrandwell, if you want ddebs it is needed19:00
tyhicksOk. I updated the wiki page to provide an equivalent setup to what was already described.19:01
barryso perhaps that's just not needed for ordinary test builds19:01
tyhicksbarry: If you don't need access to the ddebs, then you should be fine just removing the script-config option from schroot.conf.19:01
barrytyhicks: gotcha.  i'm going to just try that and see how it goes19:02
