RAOFpitti: Hey, how do you unwrite a bugpattern? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/929219 is accidentally snaffling lots of dbus crashes.07:00
ubottuLaunchpad bug 929219 in gwibber (Ubuntu Precise) "chromium-browser, gvfsd-http and others using eglibc crash with SIGSEGV in __nscd_get_mapping() or gethostbyname2_r()" [Undecided,Confirmed]07:00
pittiRAOF: just change it in lp:~ubuntu-bugcontrol/apport/ubuntu-bugpatterns, the cron job pick it up in the next 15 mins07:00
pittiRAOF: but I guess in this case it should probably be refined instead of removed?07:01
RAOFpitti: Probably.07:01
dholbachgood morning07:02
RAOFpitti: Hm. Probably just switching from “ThreadStacktrace” to “Stacktrace” would do, I think.07:06
RAOFWhy can you match on ThreadStacktrace, anyway? That seems hugely prone to false-positives.07:06
pittibug patterns don't care -- they have no logic of their own07:08
pittithey just apply whichever key/value regexp matches you specify07:08
pittiogra_: the instructions for the current armhf desktop images make it sound like they'd boot right off USB -- is that really possible now?07:59
ogra_erm, no07:59
pitti(from http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/232/builds/22473/testcases)08:00
ogra_the panda ROM can only boot off SD or usbnetwork via the mini USB port08:00
pittiogra_: ok, so still "burn .iso on SD card and install onto USB-stick and generate a small boot SD"08:00
pittiogra_: merci08:01
ogra_pitti, ah, i think thats just a copy/paste of the x86 instructions08:01
ogra_pitti, sudo dd if=path_to.img of=/dev/your/sd/card bs=4M08:01
pittiyeah, been there, done that; I just wondered whether the instructions were deliberate08:02
ogra_attach a USB disk as target device to your panda, plug in the SD (and monitor,mouse,kbd) and just boot08:02
ogra_the rest is like any other desktop install (except that we dont run a live session by default)08:02
ogra_and dont remove the SD after install, it becomes your "bootfloppy"08:03
pittinice; I'm eager to see the progress since alpha-2, it's been a while since I touched the Panda board08:04
ogra_well, we default to have the 3D driver installed now ... and you run the "real unity" :)08:04
seb128ogra_, 2 USB ports, ENOTENOUGH for keyboard,mouse,usb stick08:05
ogra_there are still flickering issues and since we switched to 3D by default firefox got massively slow08:05
RAOFHeh. I'll need to try that again.08:05
ogra_seb128, yeah, you need a hub :(08:05
RAOFseb128: You mean your monitor is *not* a usb hub? :)08:05
seb128RAOF, not only it's not an usb hub, but it also doesn't do hmdi, only vga and dvi... ;-)08:05
RAOFseb128: You may have other problems, then :)08:06
ogra_seb128, you *can* install to SD ... but need to prepare the partitioning in advance and make sure the partitioner of ubiquity doent touch the device at all during install08:06
ogra_*doesnt08:06
seb128RAOF, I've been using the pandobard on the TV so far, it's my only hdmi capable screen08:06
ogra_seb128, so put that TV in your office and expense a new one ;)08:06
seb128ogra_, I guess I can as well install with a keyboard and no mouse, or hotswap those :p08:06

xnoxpitti: hmmm...? do you have external drive plugged in or are you doing 'pre-partioned' way?08:34
jibelpitti, it works on intel08:34
xnoxpitti: and ogra was reporting success on panda's with yesterdays beta candidates I think....08:34
pittiI tried back and next again, and now it works08:35
pittiI only plugged in the USB drive when the ubiquity start screen was already on, so perhaps it got confused due to that08:35

cjwatsonBecause one of "until October 2013 (18m)" and "until March 2014 (18m)" is lying09:00
cjwatsonNever mind anything else09:00
cjwatsonSo linux-image-server is kind of OK as it is - the supported thing is linux-image-generic-pae, -server is just a transitional package really09:02
cjwatsonOh, except this is amd64 isn't it09:02

Davieydoes it make sense for svn to still be in main?11:48
cjwatsonThat depends on whether we care about our userbase who are developers of things other than free software.11:49
cjwatsonOr indeed free software in more corporate kinds of settings.11:49
cjwatsonIn fact we use it ourselves in our datacentre (think LP code imports) so we de facto support it anyway.11:50
Davieycjwatson: right, i'm not saying throw it out of the archive :).. just trying to work out if it still has a place in main.11:54
Davieycjwatson: Does Launchpad use 'svn' for imports?11:55
Davieyah, libsvn1 from svn11:57
cjwatsonDaviey: What I mean is that we don't really gain much as an organisation by pretending not to support something we use ourselves11:58
cjwatsonI knew you didn't mean to throw it out of the archive11:58
mdeslaurIs svn much of a maintenance burden? I don't really like the idea of tools our developers use to fetch upstream sources and patches not getting security updates...11:59
Davieymdeslaur: fair point.12:00
cjwatsonQuite.  I suspect Daviey is asking because it has a pending MIR attached.12:00

zygaor questions:14:40
zyga1) is it safe/sane to keep both running at the same time? I've observed some differences as compared to precise and while I don't know if they are caused by the two running in tandem it's certainly a possibility14:41
zyga2) is there a strong desire to eject udisks from the ISO? If so we could bump the priority of the bug in checkbox and rewrite the relevant parts to use udisks214:42

Riddellbarry: what is it about python3 that stops this working? http://paste.kde.org/543998/   importing pyqt should give you a qstring surely15:00
barryRiddell: that might be a better question for ScottK?  i don't know the pyqt4 api very well and i wouldn't be surprised if the api were different for python315:03
cjwatsonyes, it's different15:07
cjwatsonQString going away is a *good* thing, you get plain old python strings by default15:07
cjwatsoncf. ubiquity r5465 and r546615:08
cjwatsonMostly the latter15:08
cjwatsonIf you don't have to worry about py2 compat then you can just throw plain python strings around and not worry about it15:09
BenCLaney: The patch worked, so upload eminent15:13
slangasekseb128: my recollection is that spice only works on 64-bit; hallyn would be able to confirm15:14
slangasekzyga: maybe pitti15:14
slangasekoh, already sorted ;)15:14
seb128slangasek, some of the redhat people working on gnome-boxes says that's not true anymore and that spice got fixed to work on 32 bits15:15
seb128slangasek, should work in the version we have15:15

jbichahi, I'm getting certificate errors when I visit wiki.ubuntu.com, anyone know if an rt ticket has been opened for that yet?15:52
TJ-what's the error? the cert looks valid15:54
smoserRiddell, i can tell you because i did it wrong :)15:54
jbichaThe certificate is only valid for the following names:15:54
jbicha*.canonical.com , canonical.com15:54
TJ-jbicha: I'm seeing it issued as a wildcard for *.ubuntu.com15:55
smoserthe upstream branch is a core dev branch, so suerly changes are supposed to be made there before being uploaded.15:55
smoserhttps://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/ubuntu/quantal/apport/ubuntu is the branch, but i'm not exactly sure how pitti wants it handled. bdmurray surely knows.15:56
jbichaTJ-: what if you restart your browser?15:58
TJ-jbicha: very strange! Firefox shows *.ubuntu.com but openssl s_client shows *.canonical.com15:58
TJ-jbicha: And Chromium also shows *.ubuntu.com and I've never used Chromium on that site previously15:59
TJ-jbicha: Could be an issue with front-end SSL load-balancers being out of sync16:01
jbichaok, filed rt ticket 2037216:05
xnoxjbicha: TJ-: the certificate there is blancket, i.e. cloud friendly. not all browsers / ssl implementations will accept it.16:11
xnoxbut most modern browsers should.16:12
xnoxcheck which extensions the certificate is using.16:12
xnoxafaik it is not bound to particular IPs for *.ubuntu.com16:12

seb128xnox, for sound indicator integration you need mpris enabled in rb, not sure if you disabled that?16:18
seb128xnox, it's in rhythmbox-plugins16:18
xnoxseb128: having that package uninstalled doesn't help me, does it?!16:19
seb128xnox, no it doesn't16:19
seb128;-)16:19
xnoxseb128: that's what I get for partially upgrading at one point, don't I =)16:19
seb128xnox, indeed, got what you deserved for using dist-upgrade :p16:20
xnoxseb128: now If you could help me regain overlay-scrollbars that would be wonderful. As I managed to disable them (when glade was crashing) and can't seem to "re-enable" them any more.16:20
seb128xnox, did you export OVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0 or something?16:20
seb128LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=016:21
xnoxnope. plus that won't work anymore since it became gtk module instead of pre-load.16:21
seb128xnox, otherwise check that overlay-scrollbar and overlay-scrollbar-gtk3 are installed16:21
xnoxyeap have all 5 of them (i.e. including dbgsymbols)16:22
seb128xnox, the first one has a /etc/X11/Xsession.d/81overlay-scrollbar which does append overlay-scrollbar to the gtk loader list16:22
seb128xnox, did you hack that to not doit?16:22
xnoxyeah, that file is still there.16:22
seb128echo $GTK_MODULES?16:22
xnox$ env | grep GTK_MODULES16:23
xnoxGTK_MODULES=canberra-gtk-module:canberra-gtk-module:overlay-scrollbar16:23
seb128env | grep -i scrollbar16:23
xnoxseb128: same output, i.e. just in the GTK_MODULES.....16:23
seb128xnox, gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.interface ubuntu-overlay-scrollbars16:23
seb128(we have too many way to handle those ;-)16:24
xnoxseb128: was set to false.....16:25
xnoxseb128: set to true, but restarting apps doesn't make difference. I guess i need to restart a session.16:25
xnoxseb128: thanks though =)16:25
xnoxseb128: will see if I have scrollbars tomorrow.16:25
seb128xnox, you shouldn't...16:25
ogra_seb128, yeah, we should all just move to SuSE ... they just have yast :)16:26
ogra_(wrt too many places to configure)16:26
seb128haha16:27
seb128xnox, but yeah, doesn't seem to pick it dynamically...16:27
jcastroxnox: in the future if you dist-upgrade you can just reinstall ubuntu-desktop to get default "stuff" back.16:29
seb128jcastro, does that bring back recommends?16:30
xnoxjcastro: thanks. Apparently I don't have update-manager installed. No wonder using quantal was so peaceful for me =)16:31
jcastroseb128: I think there's a flag for recommends?17:00
jcastrousually just reinstalling it fixes it up for me, after I shoot myself in the foot anyway...17:00
seb128jcastro, yeah, things is when recommends quite uninstalled it's hard to flag if it's because you didn't want them or if that was an error or upgrade issue17:00
seb128quite->get17:01
seb128jcastro, so they are cases where they will not be reinstalled because they were flagged as something you didn't want17:01
jcastroalso I'm assuming that whatever conflict is going on in the archive that led him to a partial upgrade be resolved17:02

mips1911ok, seems like the US mirror works while some others don't18:50
xnoxmips1911: archive.ubuntu.com should always have the latest/greatest18:54
xnoxmips1911: it's best to run your own local mirror though.18:55
mips1911xnox, I always thought it might be the UK one seeing that's where canonical is 'located'. Anyway the 12.10 mini.iso netinstall seems to be doing it's thing now, only at 6% though.18:56

mips1911Is it possible to continue a netinstall that got interrupted? ie use the existing files on the hdd?19:43
pcarriermips1911: depends on when it was interrupted, but probably a bad idea19:44
mips1911pcarrier, towards the end, it was busy downloading linux-image-extre-3.5.0-13-generic19:45
pcarriermips1911: in the middle of package downloads? nah, not worth the effort19:45
mips1911pcarrier, no it was towards the end where most of the packages were installed and then it did a update to apt and had twelve packages to update19:46
jtaylormips1911: is the download the bottleneck or the installation? the latter can be speed up ~factor 5 by preloading eatmydata19:46
pcarriermips1911: if it's a VM, you use a caching mirror, at worth on the hypervisors... in case it happens again19:46

mips1911pcarrier, so if I reboot with the install media ho do i continue?19:47
