| kees | well that was fun. installed precise on top of a machine that had lucid on it. alternative install decided it was an EFI machine (BIOS yes, drive layout no), and installed grub-efi which happily ignored the old grub on the sda, which became highly confused about drives moving. | 00:17 |
|---|---|---|
| kees | seems like partman needs to learn about GPT and offer that on EFI machines. | 00:17 |
| cjwatson | Err | 00:18 |
| cjwatson | partman learned about GPT years ago and it's the EFI default | 00:18 |
| cjwatson | This is a bug, not a missing feature | 00:19 |
| cjwatson | But | 00:19 |
| cjwatson | If you already have a partition table, it isn't sane to offer a different partition table type | 00:19 |
| cjwatson | Rewriting the partition table would be very scary and very likely to break whatever's already on there | 00:19 |
| cjwatson | Dual-booting BIOS and UEFI installs on the same disk is not likely to work desperately well in general, really; you lose either way round | 00:20 |
| cjwatson | A BIOS boot loader can't boot a UEFI install, so leaving the existing GRUB on there wasn't an option, and as you say there are confusion issues with using a UEFI boot loader | 00:21 |
| cjwatson | Probably the right thing to do was to boot the installer in legacy mode (there's generally an option for this in the firmware boot menu) and then it would have proceeded in BIOS mode | 00:21 |
| cjwatson | If the installer is booted using UEFI, it assumes that it should install using UEFI too | 00:22 |
| cjwatson | Though if you weren't preserving the old partition table (it's not clear?), then perhaps we should zero out the old boot sector when doing a UEFI install | 00:23 |
| cjwatson | I dunno, doing that kind of thing scares me a bit | 00:23 |
| cjwatson | Maybe do it at the time the old partition table is wiped instead | 00:24 |

| bkerensa | bryceh: I did the fix you had for task | 07:36 |
| bryceh | bkerensa, awesome thanks. Yes I did spot that today. | 07:38 |
| bkerensa | bryceh: do you think it will land quantal? | 07:38 |
| bryceh | bkerensa, one thing I noticed was that the fix was applied to source, rather than as a patch in debian/patches/, so I wanted to take a look at that. | 07:38 |
| bkerensa | k | 07:39 |
| bryceh | bkerensa, yes I am certain it will. Even if it has to be SRU'd in post release, I'll help you make sure it happens. :-) | 07:39 |
| bryceh | bkerensa, would you like to take a shot at adding the patch in debian/patches/ ? | 07:40 |
| bkerensa | hmm | 07:41 |
| bkerensa | I dont think I have done that before | 07:41 |
| bkerensa | let me go rtfm for a bit and have a try | 07:41 |
| bryceh | it looks like I already set up quilt for this package. I think all you need to do is create a "debian/patches/<something>.patch" file, and then also add that filename to debian/patches/series and a changelog entry | 07:42 |
| bkerensa | hmm | 07:42 |
| bkerensa | ok | 07:42 |
| bkerensa | and revert the source back to what it was? | 07:42 |

| bkerensa | bryceh: ok I made the changes I understand need to be made can you check and let me know if it looks sane or just comment needs fixing with suggestions | 07:49 |
| bkerensa | thx | 07:49 |
| bryceh | bkerensa, ok will do | 07:52 |
| bryceh | bkerensa, ok this looks good! But a couple suggestions | 07:56 |
| bkerensa | bryceh: sure | 07:56 |
| bryceh | bkerensa, the patch should be named to mention what it's solving, not just a bug number since that can just be looked up easy enough | 07:56 |
| bkerensa | ok | 07:57 |
| bryceh | so in this case maybe let's see... | 07:57 |
| bryceh | only_stack_size_1.patch | 07:57 |
| bryceh | or whatever... something like that | 07:57 |
| bryceh | bkerensa, second, if the changelog make sure to answer three questions: 1. Where did the patch come from (e.g. upstream bug number or url), 2. What does the patch do, and 3. What is the problem it fixes. | 07:58 |
| bkerensa | ok | 07:58 |
| bryceh | s/if the/in the/ | 07:58 |
| bryceh | so 3 is "Fixes a crash when ...." | 07:59 |
| bryceh | 2 is something like "Check that the stack size is exactly 1 rather than just some value lower than 2" (or look at the upstream bug report if they give a better explanation) | 07:59 |
| bryceh | and 1 is just "Fixes upstream crash bug #xyz" | 08:00 |
| === tkamppeter_ is now known as tkamppeter | ||
| bryceh | as part of #1 I usually like to indicate if the patch was taken directly from upstream or if I've had to modify it in some fashion to get it to apply. But that's probably irrelevant here. | 08:01 |
| bkerensa | bryceh: how do we list bug #'s for projects like task? | 08:02 |
| bkerensa | bryceh: "Cherrypick patch from upstream bug 1048 to fix a segfault when modify" | 08:04 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1048 in HCT "hct doesn't automatically register archive" [Undecided,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1048 | 08:04 |
| bryceh | bkerensa, "upstream bug 1048" would be sufficient. Anyone looking at the package could be expected to figure out where their bug tracker is. But if you want to be super clear you could just paste the full URL. | 08:06 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1048 in HCT "hct doesn't automatically register archive" [Undecided,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1048 | 08:06 |
| bkerensa | bryceh: ok and do I need to still mention our bug? | 08:07 |
| bryceh | bkerensa, yep always. Just like you did, (LP: #1032861) appended to the description is perfect | 08:08 |
| bryceh | btw you don't have to mention that you updated the series | 08:09 |
| bkerensa | bryceh: ok all done | 08:12 |
| === henrix is now known as henrix_ | ||
| === henrix_ is now known as henrix | ||
| bryceh | bkerensa, good work! Oh one last thing. In this case instead of "* debian/patches:" can you make the changelog read "* debian/patches/only_stack_size_1.patch:" | 08:14 |
| bkerensa | surely | 08:15 |
| bryceh | it's nitpicky in this case since there's just the one patch, but in packages with a lot of patches it is helpful since then other devs can search for the patch name to see when it got added and why | 08:15 |
| bkerensa | bryceh: done and pushed | 08:16 |
| bryceh | bkerensa, excellent, looks good. | 08:17 |

| tumbleweed | alexbligh1: it sounds like a big enough issue that it should be dealt with by an SRU rather than a backport (backports don't exist to fix bugs) | 12:28 |
| tumbleweed | but I have no idea how big the patches to bring win 2012 support to the version in precise would be | 12:29 |
| tumbleweed | in general, for a backport to have a snowball's chance in hell of succeeding: you should do all the testing requestbackport asks for | 12:29 |
| alexbligh1 | tumbleweed, the issue (both with an SRU and the testing) is that updating the samba source package means the SMB /server/ gets updated too. I have no idea how to test that fully as I haven't got any Windows clients, printers, blah blah blah. I've not much idea what has changed server side. All I really want to update is the client, so Precise can mount Windows 2012 servers. Windows 2012 clients will (I believe) mount older servers an | 12:38 |
| alexbligh1 | ywhere. | 12:38 |
| alexbligh1 | s/anywhere/anyway/ | 12:38 |
| alexbligh1 | I'd be nervous about changing the default *server* (by upgrading samba). If it were possible to break out just the library from Samba, that would I think be far safer. | 12:39 |
| tumbleweed | alexbligh1: we apply minimal patches in SRUs - so it would only be SRUable if there was something fairly minimal that could be applied | 12:40 |
| tumbleweed | anyway, chat to the #ubuntu-server people | 12:40 |
| tkamppeter | doko, I am looking currently into that. The starnge thing which happemns here is that formaerly HPLIP built perfectly and suddenly, all "->" raises the error "dereferencing pointer to incomplete type". | 12:45 |
| tkamppeter | doko, do you have any idea what that means? The CUPS API did not change with respect to these data structures, and HPLIP built some weeks ago. | 12:46 |
| doko | tkamppeter, I assume some reorganization did change. glib, gtk? | 12:47 |
| doko | header reorg, I mean | 12:47 |
| alexbligh1 | tumbleweed, thanks | 12:48 |
| tkamppeter | doko, the data structures are defined in CUPS but they did not change, they still match. Strange is also that EVERY "->" raises the error. | 12:48 |
| tkamppeter | cupsext | 12:49 |
| cjwatson | tkamppeter: That indicates that at the point when the compiler encounters the thing before the ->, it doesn't have a full definition of its type | 12:49 |
| cjwatson | i.e. usually missing header or similar | 12:49 |
| tkamppeter | cjwatson, earlier in the code there is a line "ipp_t *request = NULL;", which clearly assigns the correct type to the variable "request", and assuming that the header would be missing, the compiler should already complain at "ipp_t" which it does not do. | 12:53 |
| doko | tkamppeter, but at this point, it doesn't need to know the struct | 12:59 |

| cjwatson | tkamppeter: the compiler has enough information for "ipp_t *request = NULL;", because the size of a pointer is the same no matter what it points to. | 13:34 |
| cjwatson | tkamppeter: that doesn't mean it has enough information to dereference the point | 13:34 |

| tkamppeter | cjwatson, thank you very much. I have found the cause of the problem now, in the CUPS *.h files new conditionals to hide the private data structure from non-CUPS builds were added. Now I succeeded to rebuild the package by overriding the conditionals via "-D..." in CFLAGS. | 13:39 |
| stgraber | dpm: done | 13:40 |
| stgraber | dpm: LP correctly reports the "Welcome to Ubuntu 12.10" string as needs translation now | 13:40 |

| cjwatson | mvo: Do you know whether there's a sensible way in python-apt to reset the entirety of apt_pkg.config to what you'd get from apt_pkg.init_config()? | 14:05 |
| cjwatson | I'm trying to make sure tests I'm writing are correctly isolated, and would like to avoid having to use a subprocess if possible. | 14:05 |
| cjwatson | Taking a copy of the whole apt_pkg.config object doesn't work, presumably because the actual configuration lives in libapt_pkg itself; apt_pkg.init_config() uses CndSet under the covers so ignores anything already set; and there's no obvious "clear everything" method | 14:06 |
| cjwatson | I feel I must be missing something | 14:06 |
| mvo | cjwatson: there is none right now, but that should be (re)added really, I'm in a meeting right now, but I'm happy to talk about it in a bit | 14:06 |
| cjwatson | OK. These are Launchpad tests so they have to run on lucid (at least at the moment), so I'll have to come up with a workaround that doesn't involve changing {python-,}apt. Thanks. | 14:07 |
| cjwatson | Maybe apt_pkg.config.clear("APT"); apt_pkg.config.clear("Dir"); apt_pkg.init_config() would be sufficient in practice | 14:10 |
| cjwatson | A nice interface might involve making apt_pkg.config.clear() work ... | 14:11 |
| mvo | cjwatson: yeah, I think that is the key, adding libapt clear() and exposing that to python-apt | 14:12 |
| mvo | cjwatson: let me try to build something for you, will be a bit slow due to the call but | 14:15 |
| mpt | ev, pretty good. :-) The values on the axis need tick marks, and the dots should subdivide them sensibly. 7 days for X is good, but 0.00333 for Y is a bit weird. | 14:17 |
| mvo | cjwatson: does http://paste.ubuntu.com/1226696/ look reasonable? | 14:18 |
| ev | mpt: yes - I'm working on lining them up, but I wanted to make sure the dot pattern worked as an idea first | 14:18 |
| mpt | ok | 14:19 |
| ev | might work backwards and figure out what the tick interval should be to get the same spacing between the dots on the x and y axis | 14:19 |
| seb128 | ev, did you figure out why the nautilus issue is not showing up on e.u.c? | 14:25 |
| ev | still working onit | 14:25 |
| ev | on it | 14:25 |
| seb128 | ok | 14:26 |
| cjwatson | mvo: oh, yeah, duh, that would work wouldn't it | 14:29 |
| cjwatson | Slightly inclined to take a copy of .keys() first to defend against problems with modifying something while iterating over it | 14:29 |
| mvo | cjwatson: yeah, good idea, it seems to be ok, but +1 for safety | 14:30 |
| * cjwatson sticks that in tearDown() then, thanks a lot | 14:31 | |
| doko | Sweetsha1k, seb128: libreoffice b-d's on libvigraimpex-dev, however there is no libreoffice binary depending on the library. what's the reason for this b-d? it's the last user of vigra in main, would like to demote it | 14:32 |
| Sweetsha1k | doko: vigra is mostly a header-only lib, so we are using the headers only (like most of e.g. boost) | 14:42 |
| Sweetsha1k | doko: thus build time only, nothing needed at runtime. | 14:43 |
| doko | Sweetsha1k, which cannot be avoided? | 14:43 |
| Sweetsha1k | doko: As you say its the only user left in main, I can use the interal LibreOffice copy of vigra -- shouldnt be much of an change. Its likely different for debian because they have no main/universe split and thus have more users for vigra anyway. | 14:45 |

| sladen | needhelp1: on 12 September 2012 I spent a large amount of time discussing with you | 15:03 |
| needhelp1 | nice to talk again | 15:04 |
| needhelp1 | sladen: you been doing ok? | 15:05 |
| sladen | needhelp1: about how to improve the chance of getting survey data; by eg. making questions such 'sex' optional, and moving them to the end; and working with OMG!Ubuntu, rather than trying to find users on a developer channel | 15:05 |
| needhelp1 | sladen: yeah, thanks. I have had a lot of success with the survey. | 15:06 |
| sladen | needhelp1: IIRC, you were going to make the questions optional, and get in touch with OMG!Ubuntu by email | 15:06 |
| sladen | needhelp1: did you actually do either of these things? | 15:06 |
| Mirv | mitya57: please do a merge request so it shows here https://code.launchpad.net/~unity-team/libunity/trunk/+activereviews :) then we should hunt for someone to review it | 15:07 |
| Mirv | merge proposal, that is | 15:07 |
| needhelp1 | yeah, i was asked by some ubuntu groups to leave the sex question as required | 15:07 |
| needhelp1 | the stats for the sex question are in line with other ubuntu surveys , and a large effort was made to ensure equal access | 15:08 |

| cjwatson | No | 17:09 |

| cjwatson | Assuming that the binary package with the Recommends is itself either directly seeded or included by way of transitive Depends/Recommends | 17:10 |
| bryceh | doko, the Recommends has been in for several days, so if you're still seeing it in component mismatches something is wrong | 17:10 |

| highvoltage | in the old days, people used to gopher curses. | 18:43 |
| doko | in the upstream ChangeLog I find: Adds Distutils.Extra support, removes Babel support, which is half-baked at best | 18:43 |
| doko | but: $ grep Babel nova.egg-info/* | 18:44 |
| doko | nova.egg-info/requires.txt:Babel>=0.9.6 | 18:44 |
| doko | and dh_python2 adds this to the dependencies | 18:44 |
| doko | so to remove this, add Babel to debian/pydist-overrides | 18:45 |
| doko | are you ok with this change? | 18:45 |
| zul | doko: which i did this morning | 18:45 |
| zul | in rc2 which is sitting in pending | 18:45 |
| doko | ahh, ok | 18:46 |
| tkamppeter | Laney, I don't knowm, I will try to do a clean rebuild. | 18:46 |
| tkamppeter | Laney, the problem is the build system, the original tarball seems to contain machine-generated build system files which get remade by "make clean", so I need to backup the build system to restore in the end of "make clean". | 18:50 |
| tkamppeter | popd | 18:51 |
| doko | the binutils fix did allow the ocaml build to succeed, and ruby given back on another buildd builds fine as well. time to finish for today ... | 19:03 |
| tkamppeter | Laney, still around | 19:09 |
| tkamppeter | Laney, still around? | 19:09 |
| Laney | tkamppeter: kind of, not to review/accept though | 19:09 |
| tkamppeter | Laney, I have some problem with HPLIP, I do not succeed to keep the build system files conserved. | 19:10 |
| tkamppeter | Laney, I save them in the "configure" rule, right after "dh_testdir" and restore them in the "clean" rule, AFTER dh_clean. | 19:11 |
| Laney | what do you mean save and restore? | 19:11 |
| Laney | are you using dh_autoreconf? | 19:11 |
| tkamppeter | Laney, the problem is that only running the "clean" rule (which runs the "configure" rule as dependency) the build system files get changed and so the change gets recorded as "debian/patches/debian-changes" in the source file. | 19:13 |
| kees | anyone around that knows efi booting? I'm trying to debug why my system won't... :P I can't figure out if I'm even loading the grub .efi file or not | 19:13 |
| tkamppeter | Laney, yes, I use "dh_autoreconf debian/autogen.sh" in the "configure" rule. | 19:14 |
| Laney | clean runs configure? | 19:14 |
| Laney | that sounds less than ideal | 19:14 |
| tkamppeter | Laney, I do not know why, the Debian maintainer must have added that. I will try to remove it. | 19:15 |

| Laney | tkamppeter: if you want to close bugs, you need to upload with -v | 19:31 |
| tkamppeter | Laney, perhaps the debian/patches/debian-changes file was already there for longer time only that no one has taken note of it. Especially all these changes get overwritten on each package build, so that they do not break the software provided by the package. | 19:31 |
| Laney | alternatively, since they were never in the archive, you don't need to use a new version number | 19:32 |

| doko | bdmurray, so what do you suggest to do? dear vmware, please fix your broken installer? | 19:55 |
| doko | bdmurray, I assume they ship a python2.x environment, and then calling everything else with this environment | 19:57 |
| bdmurray | doko: no, if its vmware's fault that's fine. I'd just like to be able to have that information in the bug and write a bug pattern for the crash if possible. Also modifying apport so we know if python was modified seems like a good idea too. | 19:58 |
| doko | ok, so the bug pattern would be to look for something vmware'ish in PYTHONHOME and PYTHONPATH. I assume they only see this on Ubuntu, because other distros ship a lsb_release implemenation not written in python | 20:00 |

| cjwatson | but I could well imagine that it fails to handle the -proposed workflow somehow | 22:25 |
| TheLordOfTime | cjwatson, that was my thought | 22:26 |
| Laney | I've definitely had apport refuse to let me file a bug because of -proposed | 22:26 |

| TheLordOfTime | cjwatson, the main reason i saw that is it was a quantal bug, and it was invalid'd pretty much when it got on the feed the announce bot in #ubuntu-bugs-announce posted it, and I dont usually see that. 'Tis why I was curious, then i saw that | 22:27 |
| TheLordOfTime | cjwatson, if the retracer's processing -proposed as if it is an approved, uploaded package to the standard repos, then the retracer needs an overhaul | 22:28 |
| TheLordOfTime | since that's a possibility of legitimate crash bugs being invalid'd because of -proposed | 22:28 |
| micahg | well, what we need is ddeb support in soyuz | 22:28 |
| cjwatson | we know the retracer needs an overhaul; in this case though it should be a relatively small fix | 22:29 |
| TheLordOfTime | cjwatson, then a targetted code stabbing session should work :P but my original point stands: at least with $currentDevRelease it can result in legit crash bugs being marked invalid and thereby being completely ignored by devs, which can definitely lead to reported-but-not-fixed issues at release | 22:31 |
| Laney | Nobody is disagreeing with you | 22:31 |
| TheLordOfTime | :) | 22:31 |
| TheLordOfTime | Laney, indeed. i'm just reiterating my point :) | 22:31 |
| TheLordOfTime | as a triager, i don't like broken stuff, esp. if the retracer is doing othe breaking :p | 22:31 |
