seanmontanahello01:07
seanmontanaAnyway to know an update on Launchpad Bug #101098101:08
ubot2`Launchpad bug 1010981 in linux "Computer does not power off when attempting to shut down by any route." [Medium,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/101098101:08
seanmontanaor a workaround01:08
TheLordOfTimethat bug is marked as incomplete01:15
TheLordOfTimethey want the latest upstream kernel tested01:15
seanmontanawhats that mean01:16

ubot2`Ubuntu bug 1010981 in linux "Computer does not power off when attempting to shut down by any route." [Medium,Incomplete]01:16
TheLordOfTimebasically that means the bug is incomplete, so they can't fix it yet.01:17
TheLordOfTimei think01:17
* TheLordOfTime isnt on the kernel team01:17
TheLordOfTimesee https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/BugTriage/BugStates#Incomplete_Bugs for what they mean by "incomplete"01:18
TheLordOfTimeif you have questions, you could post those questions on the bug01:18
TheLordOfTimebut in its state i dont think the kernel team can diagnose the problem in its current state01:18
seanmontanahmm01:19
seanmontanamaybe ill do that kernel upstream thing01:19
seanmontanai have no idea how though..01:19
seanmontanaill check it out01:19
TheLordOfTimethey give you a link01:20
TheLordOfTimeif you're unsure how to test, well...01:20
TheLordOfTimenot sure that bug'll get fixed01:20
TheLordOfTime(although i can't confirm that bug anyways, with any kernel, and i'm running a Quantal kernel on Precise)01:21
seanmontanaright cause you would have to have my computer model right01:22
seanmontanahow do i know which mainline build is the most current01:27
seanmontanabecause i see v3.2.28-precise/ with timestamp 20-Aug-201201:28
seanmontanaand then i see v3.3.1-precise/ with timestamp 02-Apr-201201:29
seanmontanawhich appears to be a higher version number but older date01:29
seanmontanahow do i know which is the latest mainline build image to install01:43
seanmontanabased upon version number alone?01:43
penguin42xnox: Bug 1041838 - I think the naming is the feature, but it's still a bug - the ubuntu-devel notes are only work arounds; the only case I see where it's not a bug is if he set it as eth0 in a preseed14:07
ubot2`Launchpad bug 1041838 in ubiquity "i386 netboot install ubuntu server: no wired network after install [incorrect name in interfaces file]" [Undecided,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/104183814:07
xnoxpenguin42: "set it as eth0 in a preseed" this must/should not be done any more.14:08
penguin42xnox: Right, so the question is did he use a preseed, if he didn't preseed then it should have got it right14:09
penguin42xnox: He doesn't say he preseeded14:09
xnoxbut he did use pxe boot, which sets options.14:10
penguin42xnox: right, so I think it's important to ask where his pxe config came from; and the interesting thing is that the install process worked fine, it was only what happened after that didn't - so the installer did get the biosdev but the installed result didn't which seems to be the opposite of what's being suggested14:13

olmjofolks, any help would be appreciated; I am working on triaging my first bug.14:38
olmjoturns out the first is, I think, a feature request. i need a bug-control member to change the "importance" to "wishlist", right?14:39
penguin42olmjo: Yes, but we're happy to make the changes for you14:39
penguin42olmjo: So just give the bug number  and say what you want it to set to and why14:40
olmjogreat, thanks.14:40
penguin42does someone have an ARM install of Quantal that they can check a bug on?14:43
olmjoBug #702905 should be changed to "Wishlist". The Ubuntu package depends on open-jdk, but the upstream project does not, so this isn't a feature request for upstream. The upstream project is at <http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/rJava/index.html>.14:50
ubot2`Launchpad bug 702905 in rjava "r-cran-rjava depends on openjdk-6-jre only" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/70290514:50
* penguin42 looks14:51
penguin42olmjo: I don't think that's a wishlist; I mean if it's possible to use a variety of JRE's then it *should* be dependent on something like java6-runtime14:54
olmjopenguin42: Okay. Fair enough. I guess I reasoned that is how it would be classified because the Ubuntu package is explicit about that dependency. It just shouldn't be artificially restricted that way.14:55
olmjoI'll re-read some of the bug triaging doc. Thanks!14:57
penguin42olmjo: What I don't know is whether there is a reason that it's restricted to openjdk-6 - I'm guessing from the description it's a jni thing, and I wonder if those do move between jre's easily? I don't know enough Java foo14:57
micahgolmjo: that's invalid now15:00
micahgsun-java was dropped from the archive last year15:00
micahgerr...this year15:01
penguin42micahg: Should probably still be fixed to depend on java-runtime ?15:01
micahgpenguin42: you'll want to check the packaging in quantal for something like that15:02
olmjomichag: Ah, I see. I knew I haven't had sun-java for a while now, so that makes sense.15:02
penguin42micahg: Still says it's a depend on openjdk-6-jre on quantal15:02
micahgpackage hasn't been updated for java 7 or the new java packaging standards yet AIUI15:03
penguin42micahg: Yeh which is probably the right thing to ask for15:03
penguin42micahg: So back to a previous question; do you have a Quantal ARM board to hand?15:04
micahgno15:04
* micahg disappears for a bit15:05
penguin42ok, thanks15:05
olmjopenguin42: can you clarify things for me? what is the right course of action?15:11
penguin42olmjo: I'm not sure - but that's ok you don't have to triage every bug; I think '(16:03:34) micahg: package hasn't been updated for java 7 or the new java packaging standards yet AIUI'  is the right comment here - the package really needs updating in various javay ways - but I don't know enough about Java to say that15:13
olmjookay, great.15:14
olmjothanks!15:14

penguin42RoyK: You've not got an ARM quantal install do you?18:35

penguin42nod, not got any ARM stuff setup atm - I'm suspecting bug 501277 will still happen on ARM18:35
