cjwatsonMeh, every time I'm working this late I get tempted to kill my nightly backups so that I can have some I/O.00:26
smoseranyone else able to help with that?00:38
smoserthe access denied issue?00:39
smoserwell, i'm out for the night.00:45
smoserif anyone else has their api keys and wants to follow bzr+ssh://bazaar.launchpad.net/~smoser/+junk/jenkins2isotracker/ to post results for ec2, they could do that.00:45

highvoltageskaet: should beta2 tech overview include the notes from beta1?01:00
highvoltagestgraber: I added that 2 items we discussed earlier and removed the obvious ones from the packages list (from the conflicts list in edubuntu-live), there's not really a lot but the list should probably be even shorter: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QuantalQuetzal/TechnicalOverview/Beta2#Edubuntu01:10
ScottKhighvoltage: You want the tech overview to be readable for someone upgrading from Precise, so it should cover everything from that angle.02:46
stgrabersmoser: http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/api ?02:48
stgrabersmoser: /user is blocked as it's not relevant when using SSO (that page would usually let you change your password and other details that we get from SSO)02:49
stgraberI have a few bug reports to try and make that part a bit better (ideally, without having to patch Drupal's code...)02:49
skaetDaviey, we're still missing some of the Ubuntu Server test results on the iso tracker,  can you look into getting them run and the results added to the tracker?05:51

knomeskaet, it also looks like there's problems with reporting our post-installation/desktop tests to the tracker, and we don't have any tests for those because of that; but, i'm signing off both images09:28

ogra_yup and rebooted just fine11:27
cjwatsonOK, great.  I'll copy flash-kernel now then.11:29
cjwatsonNot sure there's much point using -proposed for debian-installer-utils, since it doesn't have arch skew problems and it needs a d-i rebuild anyway.11:29
cjwatsonBut I can review it there anyway ...11:30
* smartboyhw hopes that scott-work will show up today to say that Ubuntu Studio beta 2 is ready:P11:30
knomesmartboyhw, since you've been monitoring how it comes up and scott not, how do you think he'd know better than you?11:31
ogra_cjwatson, well, i thought i'd rather drive safe and take proposed before anyone shouts that i broke a policy or so :)11:32
* smartboyhw thinks that he does NOT have sign-off rights:P11:32
ogra_we are still frozen after all :)11:32
knomesmartboyhw, if scott doesn't turn up, then you probably have to make the decision :P11:33
smartboyhwknome: Ooh:P11:34
cjwatsonogra_: Oh, I spotted a mistake11:34
cjwatsonogra_: You need a $ at the end of that regexp11:34
cjwatsonIn practice I don't see any partition types we care about that would be mishandled due to that, but I'd rather be safe11:35

plarsskaet: hggdh ran what he could of the maas tests yesterday, but I don't think he has everything he needs to run all of them. My understanding is that someone from server team normally does this? Same for iscsi13:41
skaetRiddell,  the Kubuntu images for powerpc and amd64+mac don't have results -  are they likely to get some in next little bit, or remove them from list for beta 2?13:42
skaetDaviey, ^  ??13:43

skaetvanhoof, infinity, plars - the netboot images look like they still need some testing -  what's the outlook on them?13:51
skaetknome,  thanks for the update.  If there are post install issues,  please mentiong them in the TechnicalOverview/Beta2.   Marking your images ready now too.13:53
ogra_skaet, a fix for arm netboot is in the archive, but would require a d-i rebuild, not sure what colin plans here13:53
skaetcjwatson,   ^  release note,  and make available shortly after?13:53
* ogra_ wouldnt mind to skip them given the fix will be inthe next build anyway13:54
cjwatsonNo, it does not require a d-i rebuild13:54
cjwatsonflash-kernel is not in the initrd13:54
cjwatsonIt should be available for netboot installations now13:54
ogra_ugh, soryy, i mixed up the two fixes :)13:54

skaetLaney,  can you review the new incoming from popey?   my bandwidth right now is focusing on getting beta 2 ready and figuring out what we'll ship or not.13:59
popeythanks skaet, sorry to lay more on you..14:00
* skaet keeps up her pinging :P14:01
* smartboyhw is seriously wondering why scott-work hasn't said a word since he came:P14:02
skaetRiddell,  one of the missing netboot tests, is installing Kubuntu - has anyone tried that yet?14:02
ogra_smartboyhw, if someones client conncts that doesnt necessary mean there is a person attached to it ;)14:03
smartboyhw;)14:03
ogra_*necessarily14:03
Riddellskaet: fooey didn't notice that, I can give it a go14:04
skaetsmartboyhw,  scott-work - are there more results about to be posted for ubuntu-studio?14:04
skaetthanks Riddell14:04
smartboyhwskaet, don't think so......14:04
smartboyhwWe don't have that much testers:P14:04
skaetsmartboyhw,  then probably we won't ship this time around.   Manditory tests should be completed.14:05
smartboyhwskaet, that is real difficult......14:05
smartboyhwThen we won't have any builds to ship, we just don't have enough testers to complete ALL of them14:05
plarsskaet: for netboot, you are referring to the kubuntu and xubuntu netboot tests?14:07
skaetplars,  yes,  Riddell says he'll handle kubuntu,  and if that's ok,  then we'll assume xubuntu likely is.14:07
smartboyhwskaet, I will just go and run the tests now14:07
skaetsmartboyhw,  ok.    I'll hold off on the decision to ship/not from my perspective as long as can.14:08
skaetbut we won't be holding up the release for it.14:09
smartboyhwskaet, OK14:09
skaetballoons,  can you fix http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/238/builds/24227/testcases for quantal?  upgrading from lucid doesn't make sense as a test for quantal.   (Daviey,  sound out if you disagree)14:14
Laneypopey: is it entirely necessary?14:15
Laneythe tweaks don't seen to be stopping.14:15
balloonsskaet, ohh.. I thought we fixed that14:16
balloonsohh.. server14:16
popeyLaney, It certainly improves the user experience. I'd imagine people are going to appreciate pre-filtering amazon results they may click on by these visual cues.14:16
skaetyup, server14:16
balloonsgive me a few14:17
LaneyI should hope that you think all changes improve the user experience :-)14:17
smartboyhwskaet, can you give me an approximate time for us to complete the testcases before you call it off?14:18
Laneyjbicha: tell me what you think about the prospect of another shopping lens uife ;-)14:19
jbichaLaney: what do they want this time?14:19
Laneyto add 'emblems' to the amazon results14:19
Laneywhich indicate the category it came from14:19
skaetsmartboyhw,  you've got at least an hour,   was expecting the results in by 1200 UTC so we wouldn't be doing this dance.  Beyond that variable.14:20
smartboyhwskaet, thanks14:20
stgraberskaet: Edubuntu should be all good, we have ISO and upgrade test results, tech overview was done by highvoltage and the bug listed in the release notes is still relevant. We won't have a blog post for beta2, so just link to http://www.edubuntu.org as usual.14:21
Davieyskaet: no eta yet14:21
jbichaLaney: well we don't have screenshots of the shopping lenses, but it'd be nice if the UI stopped changing for the ubuntu-manual guys & such14:21
LaneyYes. And it would be nice if the exceptions stopped coming and sucking up the release, doc and translation team's time14:24

smartboyhwStudio amd64 ready to go, download i386 ISO ETA 4-8 minutes14:31

stgraberhowever I agree that the rest of the visual tweaks can certainly wait till R14:31
highvoltagewhy can't you just make people who land late features take responsibility for them? like, if you want to introduce a UI change 2 weeks after UI freeze you should be the one taking screensots of it in 63 (or how many it is these days) languages14:32
highvoltage(I guess that's maybe somewhat harsh)14:32
skaetLaney, ScottK - please add your comments to the bugs in question,  and I'll do my homework enough for an opinion as soon as we get this Beta2 out the door.   I'm agreeing its gotten way too late for tweaks, but don't want to comment further until I actually can focus and read them.14:32
ScottKSure.14:33
Laneystgraber: feel free to take it on (in fact, please do)14:33
tumbleweedstgraber: or just consider it to be still too buggy for release, and remove it14:33
popeythanks for the consideration14:33
jbichatumbleweed: :)14:34
tumbleweedno really, I don't know why we aren't considering that as an option. It's a totally real and useful one14:34
Laneyno it's not a real one14:34
Laneyit's out of the release team's hands, so to speak14:35
stgrabertumbleweed: I'd be happy with that option if it wasn't for the whole getting sabdfl'ed and ending up with more changes than we're talking about at the moment...14:35
stgraberconsidering the changes independently we can at least hope to postpone some of them...14:36
tumbleweedyeah, it sounds like it's mostly there (And I don't recall seeing explicit sabdfling, but assumed it was behind the scenes somewhere)14:37
jbichaLaney: I believe the Release Team does have that authority14:37
ScottKWe certainly do.14:37
Laneyit's already a sabdfled feature14:38
ScottKtumbleweed: sabfling only counts if it's explicit and on the record.14:38
ogra_so why do you complain14:38
ogra_nothing to discuss if it was sabdlfied14:38
* smartboyhw is now rushing to get the i386 studio testing completed.......14:39
ScottKI've seen Mark rip someone's head off for trying "Mark told me it had to go in" on the release team.14:39
highvoltageScottK: right, that was passed by the CC a while ago, but I haven't actually seen any bugs or docs for any sabdflifications14:39
ogra_well, but the sabdfl override is a real thing that was defined in ubuntu from day one, if it is used it should simply be noted as that14:39
ScottKogra_: Yes, but he has to actually do it explicitly.14:40
ogra_and everyone (including sabdfl) should just move on and accept the policy14:40
ogra_else it is pointless to have it14:40
phillwskaet: lubuntu won't release beta2 ppc, too many gremlins. Others are okay to throw out in the wild :)14:40
Laneyregardless of that, all of these later requests are certainly within our jurisdiction14:40
ScottKCertainly.  I have my opinion about it, but I don't argue it's the policy and he has the authority.14:40
ScottKLaney: Precisely.14:40
skaetthanks phillw,   was wondering about those ppc images.14:41
ScottKBTW, I put NACK comments on the two bugs.14:41
Laneythanks14:41
ogra_phillw, oh, btw, do you plan to have a lubuntu slideshow ?14:41
ScottKI didn't mark the wontfix (although I could have) because skaet said she wanted to look at them later.14:41
ogra_looks a bit odd with all the ubuntu advertising14:41

ogra_phillw, apart from that, great work, lubuntu gave me a nice new home for the ac100 :)14:43

ScottKpopey: skaet is going to review the FFe's in question after Beta 2 is out and make a final decision.  To me it seems non-critical and I think it's too late for non-critical.15:15
popeynoted ScottK, thanks15:15
skaetballoons,  can you work with Daviey then after this release is out to get an appropriate test case in there.   (Since he's a member of release team, and has a vested interest in Ubuntu Server)15:15

skaetrelease team members and flavor leads,   could I ask you all to take a read through the current test cases on the iso tracker and make sure they make sense from your perspective.   Goal here is to make sure the set of manditory test cases is truly manditory,  and we're not including manual testing that doesn't add value.  Similarily,   if there are areas where we should be adding test coverage,  please add the test15:18

stgraberpatched queuebot to actually check for the record status instead of assuming that !rejected == accepted and have it discard the data it receives from LP if the package status don't make sense15:35
stgraberhopefully that should fix the problems or at least let me figure out what's going on15:36
cjwatsongreat, thanks15:36
smartboyhwskaet, please explain what is oversite to me;P15:41
ogra_missed15:42
cjwatsontypo for oversight15:42
cjwatson(which may help non-native speakers)15:43
smartboyhwAh:P15:43
plarsskaet: not sure if someone is already on it, but I'm trying to work out the iscsi tests15:43
skaetplars,  thanks.  Daviey,  if someone else is already doing the ISCSI tests,  please let plars know.15:43
skaetsorry smartboyhw,  my bad.15:44
smartboyhw:)15:44
plarsDaviey: even if not, it would still be helpful to have someone else looking at it too, as I've just now installed iscsitarget on a local machine to try to muck through it15:44
infinityGood morning.15:45
smartboyhwHello infinity15:45
skaethello infinity,   do we ship powerpc server image or not?15:47
skaetit doesn't have all its tests done,  but its common code with the rest that seems fairly well tested.15:48
skaethttp://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/238/builds/24193/testcases15:48
infinityskaet: All its tests aren't really necessary for an unsupported port, IMO, as long as someone's tested that the ISO works at all.15:49
infinityskaet: And it looks like someone's tested that it boots and installs, and those passed, so that's enough for me.15:49
skaetinfinity,  ok,  can you work with balloons after beta2 is out to get the set of manditory test cases adjusted to what is truly manditory.15:49
skaetfor the final release,  all manditory will need to be run,  as well as all run once.15:50
phillwskaet: the issues we're seeing with ppc seem to be 'X' related (even though kernel driven), as server is CLI it should be immune from them?15:50
skaetphillw,  yes,  so I assume, and why its likely ok to ship.15:51
infinityphillw: Your X issues are video card specific too, are they not?  It's not "all PPC hardware".15:51
phillwinfinity: provided you do not have radeon or nvidea cards, you are okay... Which I thinks covers all the apple PPC's ;(15:52
infinityphillw: Oh, I thought it was only one or the other that was broken.15:52
phillwthe nvidea issue is now fix commited (it also affects other distros and archs).15:53
infinityphillw: Also, radeon on my PPC machine is fine in quantal (assuming I don't use radeonfb, but what was a known bug)15:53
phillwinfinity: no such look for us!15:53
infinitys/what/that/15:53
phillwas the dust settles I'll ask some one who knows about kernels to take a look at the proposed kernel fix before I go and ask the kernel team. It would be useful if I actually understood what I was asking for :D15:54
rtgskaet, should the netboot images have been rebuilt since Sept 22 ? http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/quantal/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/15:58
skaetrtg,  no api change was the word when it was asked earlier this week.15:59
* ogra_ doesnt think there was a d-i upload since the 22nd15:59
cjwatsonIndeed.  We'll do one after beta15:59
rtgok, but the kernel in d-i still has the linker problem that we sorted out with doko16:00
ScottKphillw: Understanding leads to questions.  Often it's better just not to know.16:02
cjwatsonrtg: Hm, I didn't see any visible effects from it ... wasn't that a total boot failure?16:03
rtgcjwatson, not always, often it was just an annoyance about graphics mode selction16:03
phillwScottK: he he, then someone who understands what is a written proposed solution would need to look at it to see the feasability of it (I think that there are two ways forward that have been suggested).16:04
rtgcjwatson, ogasawara: I'm bumping the kernel ABI so that we're sure to rebuild d-i after the beta release.16:04
ScottKphillw: Yes, but "I don't really understand enough about this to have an informed opinion, would you please look at it and tell me what you think?" can be a nice work shifting device.16:05
ScottKLet's not get into how I know that.16:05
phillwthanks for the tip :)16:05
cjwatsonrtg: I thought we got that fix.  It stopped bugging me on boot.16:06
infinityrtg: I rebuilt for that fix.16:06
infinityrtg: Anyhow, no need for artificial ABI bumps, there will be d-i uploads right after beta.16:07
rtginfinity, I'm checking for when that fix went in. I just updated my cobbler installation and experienced the grpahics selection bug, which is why I checked the last date on the ISO16:08
ScottKI approved the privacy change FFe.16:08
infinityrtg: Well, the fix was fixed a few different ways/times.  Maybe I didn't rebuild for the last one where you fixed the struct.16:08
infinityrtg: Let me see.16:08
rtgUbuntu-3.5.0-14.1816:09
rtgso, the netboot ISO should have that fix.16:09
infinityrtg: Indeed it should.16:09
rtghmm, wtf16:10
infinityrtg: Maybe you have an outdated ISO?16:11
infinityrtg: Or maybe the bug just hates you. :/16:11
rtginfinity, its possible both reasons are afflicting me. gimme a bit to figure it out16:12
infinityrtg: Alternately, no one accidentally reverted 14.18 in a later release, did they?16:14
infinityrtg: (We've long since rebuilt to pick up -15.*-)16:14
rtginfinity, nope, I just checked. The 'used' attribute is still present in the source code.16:15
infinityHrm.16:15
infinityKay, well the kernel used for d-i right now would be 15.22, so all it's missing is the i915 backlight reverts.16:15
infinityWhich is likely irksome to some, but shouldn't be cause your bug to come back. :/16:16
rtginfinity, I'll know as soon as the machine I'm installing is done. then I can check what kernel its using.16:16
infinityrtg: Checking after installation might be less helpful than hitting a terminal right now and looking. :P16:16
infinityrtg: Since it's the kernel baked into the installer that you're curious about, not what it plans to install, no?16:17
rtginfinity, the colors are so messed up that I can't read it on another console.16:17
infinityOh.  Lolz.16:17
infinityI'd suggest serial, but x86 kit with serial is the computing unicorn these days.16:17
rtgjust so happens this machine is old enough that it still has serial, but thats kind of a last resort16:18
skaetinfinity,  all the test results are in now,  and they look basically ready to start the pre-publishing off.16:21
infinityBasically ready is such a comforting noun phrase.16:22
cjwatsonWhoa, we forgot to do early pre-publishing again16:22
cjwatsonDamnit16:22
cjwatsonI meant to check on that16:22
skaetcjwatson,  ack.16:22
plarsDaviey: I can't seem to get the iscsi tests to work, but it's highly likely it's something in my setup as I don't have a known-working environment for this, is there someone from your team that could take a look?16:27
balloonsplars, I don't know if there's anything different in this one: http://packages.qa.dev.stgraber.org/qatracker/milestones/225/builds/16299/testcases/1337/results16:35
balloonsit's been verified to work however16:35
ogra_1337 ?16:35
ogra_heh16:35
jibelplars, jamespage can help you with iscsi16:35
plarshmm, I may have just found the problem... I have something on my network that is causing a problem I think16:38
plarslet me start this over and try again16:38
infinityPre-publishing is syncing to mirrors.16:39
jamespagejibel, I'm trying but my laptop keeps overheating16:40
Davieyplars: jamespage is doing the iscsi stuff right now16:40
plarsDaviey: ok, I may keep going with it at least on the unauthenticated mode to see if I can get it working - thanks!16:41
skaetinfinity,  ack. thanks.16:41
Davieyplars: cool!16:41
jamespageDaviey, jibel, plars: seeing an issue with iscsi root16:47
jamespagegrub appears, but initramfs fails to find the iscsi device so no /dev/by-uuid16:47
jamespagethat was for authenticated16:48
jamespageI'll try unauthed as well now16:48
plarsogra_: have you tried netboot install since the flash-kernel update?16:52
ogra_plars, i commented on the bug (and closed it too)16:52
plarsogra_: oh, I didn't see the message I guess... I'll go look, but I just finished an attempt, and confirmed I have the new f-k and I'm getting "/dev/mmcblk0p1 is not a block device" still16:53
ogra_hmm16:53
ogra_on real iron ?16:53
ogra_i tested in a vm16:54
plarsogra_: yes, on my iron-panda16:54
plars:)16:54
plarsogra_: I don't need a newer netboot image or anything right? it's pulling it from the archive not from the image16:55
cjwatsonplars: that's right16:55
ogra_yep16:55
cjwatsonit's possible there's a similar symptom a little further down16:55
* cjwatson will let ogra_ analyse it though :)16:56
ogra_yeah, i'll try an omap4 install now16:56
plarsand if I go to a shell, I still see only /dev/mmcblk0 (no p1)16:56
ogra_might be that there is a difference vs omap316:56
ogra_plars, erm, which image did you use ?16:56
ogra_smells like you just used the fat partition16:57
plarsboot.img-fat-serial16:57
plarsI did16:57
ogra_heh16:57
plarsbecause I needed serial16:57
plarsyeah, I was just thinking... I'm not sure that one includes partitioning16:57
ogra_right, you want the .gz image still16:57
plarsmeh16:57
ogra_-fat is actually only the content of the first partition16:58
plarsogra_: so this image won't work then, need to just modify the other one instead?16:58
ogra_now dont ask me why we publish that16:58
ogra_NCommander created that16:58
plarsbut that was my next question!16:58
plarspoo16:58
plarsok16:58
ogra_i'll happily remove it16:58
plarswell, that's a relief actually16:58
infinityWe should probably stop publishing the partition images.  Or include a nice README.16:58
ogra_(i ran into the same issue before btw)16:58
cjwatsonhttp://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/quantal/main/installer-armhf/current/images/MANIFEST has a one-line description of each image, but fails to mention the -fat ones ...16:59
cjwatsonev: You can't use the same version in both quantal and precise-proposed.17:01
cjwatsonev: Perhaps you want -0ubuntu3.1 in precise-proposed (in which case remember to tweak the Breaks/Replaces).17:01
evargh, okay17:01
evyeah, I had that before but it seemed messy17:01
evwill do17:01
* cjwatson rejects17:01
plarsogra_: what might be even nicer is to just have a preEnv.txt for both normal, and serial install boot on the boot partition17:03
plarsogra_: perhaps with a README saying to just swap it out for the serial one if you need/want to do serial installs17:03
ogra_plars, we do ...17:03
plarsogra_: oh?17:03
ogra_oh, perhaps not in the netinst image17:03
skaetinfinity,  which of the pre-publishing steps in Release minus a couple of hours in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BetaProcess are done now?17:03
plarsogra_: ah, right, I think I saw that on server, but it's not on netinst17:04
infinityThe netboot images are actually different (different modules, etc)17:04
ogra_all others have preEnv.txt and preEnv.txt-serial17:04
infinityIt's not just a config thing.17:04
ogra_plars, though generally i was thinking about dropping -serial ... it is so easy to edit the file now17:04
infinityskaet: None, since "minus a couple of hours" refers to publishing, not pre-publishing.17:05
ogra_so people wanting serial can easily add console=ttyF0017:05
plarsogra_: but it's also easy to leave it, and probably saves you from the occasional "what do I add to make it work with serial installs" question17:06
plars:)17:06
ogra_true17:06
infinityYeah, I see no reason to drop the serial netboot image.17:06
ogra_infinity, not the serial image17:06
skaetinfinity minus a couple of hours of publishing,  is pre-publishing to me.  :P17:06
ogra_i was talking about preEnv.txt-serial17:06
infinityogra_: Oh, yeah.  Well, that's a nice hint.17:06
plars+1 for dropping the serial image, +1 for adding preEnv.txt-serial17:06
skaetinfinity,  please let me know which of the steps are done,  or which are still needed.17:07
ogra_plars, ok: i'll do tht over the next days17:07
infinityskaet: I only just pre-published, I'll jump on the "minus a couple of hours" stuff now.17:07
* ogra_ puts on hos TODO17:07
ogra_*his17:07
skaetinfinity,  ack.   please post as they get done, so we can stay in sync.17:08
infinityogra_: -1 to dropping the serial image and consolodating with fb.  It makes my life harder. :P17:08
ogra_infinity, in what way ?17:08
infinityogra_: Because I'd now need to edit an image to boot serial?17:08
ogra_hmm, k17:09
infinitySeems like a step backward when it's no maintenance headache to provide both for netboot.17:09
plarsinfinity: just like you do for -server? :)17:09
ogra_so we'll keep serial and fb images but drop fat17:09
skaetinfinity,  #7 is done.17:09
infinityplars: For server, it makes sense, cause shipping two enormous images is silly.17:09
plarsright, it should be the full image if you're really serious about keeping it17:09
Davieyskaet: There is an iscsi issue, where booting isn't working as expected.  jamespage has confidently seen it, and seems plars is also experiencing woe.17:12
Davieyrelease notes will be updated17:12
Davieyit is not a beta release blocker17:12

plarsjamespage: no, I don't see that, but I did see something odd after making a stupid mistake17:18
plarsjamespage: I assumed I would need to install grub to a local drive17:18
plarsjamespage: so I erased my local drive and created a single empty partition on it at install time just to make sure it was initialized (but I didn't use the partition for anything)17:18
plarsjamespage: when it got to the stage of asking where to stick the bootloader, the default was sdb (my iscsi target), and I pressed enter instead of changing it17:19
plarsso... it didn't boot17:19
plarsbut I went into rescue, and tried to rewrite grub but it seemed sda was still empty, uninitialized, no partition...17:20
* Daviey goes afk17:20
plarsI init'd it manually, and wrote grub to it after mounting root on /dev/sdb117:20

knomeso, the beta images will show up in that url too?18:02

skaetthe current images in daily right now,  will become the beta-2 images and persist,  while we go back to adding fresh updates to dailies from now until final freeze.18:04
cjwatsonI've never cronned it because it seems like a lot to spit out all the time, and we want it to be done basically after we've finished with all the respins we're going to do18:12
cjwatsonWhich is either difficult to automate or very expensive, depending on which approach you take :-)18:12
infinitycjwatson: Yeah, I think commented out in cron as a gentle reminder would be enough. :P18:12
infinitycjwatson: Especially if/when I move to automating a buch of that, and I need to remember WTF we're building. ;)18:13

infinityManually, too.18:49
skaetok.  Can we clean up the Desktop CD reference on the page to say Desktop Images?18:50
infinityWell, it's still an ISO, which is what we call a "CD" in the publishing scripts.18:51
skaetyeah but its misleading to refer to it as an ISO.18:51

skaetrather a CD18:51
infinityAnd is still more non-tech friendly, I suspect, for people burning to optical media (despite it not fitting on a CD).18:51

skaetinfinity,  it was mailed already, since you said some of the torrents work.   raise a flag if theres a snag please.19:48
infinityskaet: I figured "some" implied "not all". ;)19:49
infinityskaet: Anyhow, there are only a few that are sad, and we're working through it. It's not like the torrents "work" very well right when we say they do anyway, since they have no peers. :P19:49

highvoltage" * Changes from the Ubuntu defaults for certain packages."19:59
highvoltagewho butchered the edubuntu release notes :-/19:59
highvoltage(ah perhaps they didn't)20:00
stgraberhighvoltage: yeah, the release announcement doesn't contain eveything from the tech overview20:00
highvoltagestgraber: indeed, I just realised that.20:01
infinitycjwatson: Is publish-release on your rewrite hitlist?20:20
infinitycjwatson: If so, it has a bug you won't want to replicate (multi-pass publishing cleans the torrent directory of the previous pass)20:21
infinitycjwatson: If not, we should fix that bug in the shell version. :P20:21
infinityskaet: Torrents should all be happy now.20:23
skaetThanks infinity.  :020:24
skaet:)20:24
* infinity decides it's time for a proper lunch before undoing all the beta bits on cdimage and turning dailies back on, etc.20:24
* skaet thinks its time for her lunch too....20:30
slangasekinfinity, skaet: congrats on the beta :)20:56
cjwatsoninfinity: that torrent business has annoyed me for ages, yes.  I noticed it for 12.04 I think but it was really painful to fix in shell21:21
cjwatsoninfinity: everything is on my hitlist, but particularly publish-release21:21
cjwatsoninfinity: did you figure out the metalink business?  I certainly hadn't intended to break that21:21
cjwatsonskaet: am I good to flush the queue at leisure?21:23
phillwcjwatson: whilst infinity and skaet return from lunch, could you answer me a question about including  * b43-fwcutter on an ISO? Lubuntu seem to have it on LiveCD, but not installation iso's....21:28
cjwatsonThat's controlled by your seeds21:28
phillwcjwatson: the question, I think, is are we 'allowed' to include it?21:29
cjwatsonUp to you21:29
phillwno copyright issues?21:29
cjwatsonNot AFAIK21:30
skaetcjwatson,  you're good to process them through now.    Keeping the archive frozen though.21:30
cjwatsonWhy?21:30
cjwatsonWe normally flush and unfreeze at about the same time.21:30
cjwatsonOr do you mean permanently until release?21:30
skaetUntil release21:30
phillwthanks, it really threw a guy out as his WiFi was working perfectly on LiveCD and he did an install and it went POOOF!!!21:30
skaetThere's a bit too much churn going on, and don't want to break the dailies between here and final freeze.21:31
cjwatsonskaet: Damn, that means I actually have to review everything then.21:31
cjwatsonCan you announce that, if you haven't already?21:32
skaetcjwatson.  Will do.   In ubuntu-release email ok?   or ubuntu-devel better?21:32
cjwatson-devel-announce, I think.  It's a pretty major change!21:32
iulianAre we keeping the archive frozen until release, i.e. final release?21:34
skaetcjwatson,  is it?   we kept it frozen after beta 2 in oneiric,  and it was frozen from 3 weeks out in precise as well.21:34
cjwatsonev: I'm afraid your activity-log-manager upload to quantal clashed with a different one already in the queue.  I accepted Didier's since it was there first; please rebase your change on top21:34
skaetiulian,   yes,  we're keeping it frozen until release.21:34
* skaet will go compose the email for devel-announce21:35
cjwatsonskaet: 3 weeks out in precise wasn't beta 2, though ...21:35
cjwatsonAt any rate it seems worth telling people.21:35
* iulian nods.21:36
iulianI thought we're going to unfreeze now.21:36
skaetagreed.   I put it in the channel headers when I announced beta 2 was out for #ubuntu-release and #ubuntu-devel,  but better to overcommunicate than under.21:36
skaetiulian,  fixes can be let in now,  but not without some review.21:36
cjwatsonI'll review the queue then.  Will take some time.21:37
skaetsee comment above from cjwatson on clashing. :/21:37
cjwatsonCan I accept my own if I know they're bug-fix-only?21:37
skaetyes21:37
slangasekDo the gnome 3.6 ones need anything beyond a pro-forma review?  I could help with some of those21:38
stgraberI'm also around for reviews if you want to split21:38
skaetslangasek,  not unless Laney has something he's worried about.21:39
skaetthanks stgraber.21:39
* slangasek starts at 'gedit' for the moment21:39
cjwatsonI guess I probably ought not to review my own for the sake of form.21:39
cjwatsonResolving duplicates first.21:39
infinityAll of the stuff with version numbers that look suspiciously like 3.6.0* probably only need lightweight review, at best.21:41
infinityAnd that's where I had planned to start.21:42
slangasekthere look to be enough of them to go around21:42
infinityOh, and I can unreject gtkhtml4.0 now, and get its rdeps rebuilt.21:43
infinityOh, sweet mother of... I left all the torrents downloading while I was at lunch, cause I forgot to delete them all after testing.21:44
infinityI now have, uhm, a lot of beta2.21:44
cjwatson(Oh, and please particularly today tell me about any queue timeouts rather than just trying again.)21:46
infinitycjwatson: Oh, wait, are we reviewing but not accepting, so you can do a mass accept run?21:46
cjwatsonDoesn't matter.21:46
infinity(ignore the dpkg and gtkhtml I just accepted, if so)21:46
cjwatsonqueue does one request per accept anyway.21:46
infinitycjwatson: Kay, I just know you wanted to clear the queue.21:47
infinityAnd somehow lost focus on that with the talk of reviewing. :P21:47
cjwatsonI just wanted to be around.21:47
* iulian is going to do a few reviews and then bed.21:48
iuliancjwatson: Shall I start from the bottom and work my way up?21:49
cjwatsonAs you wish21:49
* infinity is really tempted to just batch accept 3.6.0*...21:49
cjwatsonThe odd collision won't kill us21:49
stgraberouch, why did I open the grub2 diff again? :)21:49
infinityWhich is what I would have done if the uploads had been a day earlier.21:49
iuliancjwatson: OK, great.21:49
dokodo I need somebody to formally review binutils and gcc-4.7 updates, or can I copy these with the pre-built binaries from the ubuntu-toolchain-r PPA?21:50
cjwatsonYou can copy them and they'll land in the queue, since we're still frozen21:50
dokook21:50
cjwatsonWhoever accepted language-selector might want to accept the other one so that its bugs get closed.21:50
cjwatson(0.88)21:50
infinityNot that copies with binaries are remotely reviewable.21:50
infinityWithout tracing back through history.21:50
cjwatsonI'm reviewing nova and quantum, but need to go rescue a crying baby.21:51
infinityI'm just working bottom-up on gnome 3.621:51
infinitycjwatson: As for the publish-release torrent bug, isn't it already a solved problem with publish-release's publishing of images to simple/ and full/?  Surely, the same logic could apply, instead of just wiping the directory clean.21:54
infinitycjwatson: (But if it's being rewritten soon, I'd rather just make a mental note of the bug for release day and otherwise not waste time on it)21:54
cjwatsoninfinity: I think it was a bit more complicated than that, but I forget the detais22:03
cjwatson*details22:03
infinitycjwatson: Fair enough.  And now that I'm aware of it, I don't much care either.22:03
cjwatsonwrap-and-sort: for when you want to annoy reviewers22:03
infinitycjwatson: Hunting it down was a bit surprising, s'all. :)22:03
infinitycjwatson: wrap-and-sort is great after the first application, mind you. :/22:04
infinitycjwatson: The diffs sure get more readable in subsequent uploads.22:04
cjwatsonNo doubt.  Just do it when I don't have to read the result. :-P22:04
infinity*grin*22:04
iulian:)22:04
* infinity goes to clean out -proposed, since he already reviewed most of those once.22:05
cjwatsonzul: Not grounds for rejection or anything, but this change in nova 2012.2-0ubuntu1:22:06
cjwatson+  * debian/control: Dont conflict with novnc. (LP: #1055505)22:06
cjwatsonzul: ... doesn't actually appear to be present in the diff.22:06
slangasekwhat, no scathing feedback on the mountall upload?  I'm disappointed22:09
xnoxslangasek: the tim of the upload in debian and sync was peculiar.22:11
infinityCan we give TheMuso a gold star for actually documenting changes in his uploads instead of the usual "New upstream release" that every other desktop uploader uses?22:11

slangasekxnox: was it?22:11
xnoxdoko: git ^^^^^ accepted above =/22:11
ScottKNote for the post-release release team feedback session at UDS: Finding out that the design for a new feature that's been requested to land post beta 2 has significantly changed via jono's blog post isn't really the best communication flow.22:12
stgraberbdmurray: ping22:12
xnoxslangasek: well it was morning here. So it must have not been a reasonable hour to fiddle with mountall.22:12
slangasekxnox: dude, those are the ONLY hours I fiddle with mountall22:12
slangasek;)22:12
infinityWhy is this starting to sound dirty?22:13
stgraberbdmurray: looks like your ubuntu-release-upgrader wasn't generated properly, it contains a lot of file removal: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/117539252/ubuntu-release-upgrader_1%3A0.180_1%3A0.181.diff.gz22:13
stgraberbdmurray: I'll reject it to avoid getting another broken upgrader in the archive. If the diff is actually correct, let me know and I'll get it out of rejected.22:13
cjwatsonbdmurray,stgraber: use bzr bd -S not debuild -S22:14
stgraberright, otherwise the pre-build script doesn't run22:14
cjwatsonstgraber: in fact how about I reupload on his behalf that way :)22:14
stgrabercjwatson: feel free :)22:14

stgraberme too :)22:18
* xnox was just suggested to add an empty file in the initramfs to satisfy mdadm check for running inside initramfs..... because of systemd *sigh*22:18
cjwatsontjaalton: what happened to debian/patches/nouveau-nva3-noaccel-info.patch in xserver-xorg-video-nouveau 1:1.0.2-0ubuntu2?22:19
slangasekxnox: ... for Ubuntu?22:21
xnoxslangasek: linux-raid mailing list.... that patch is not in mdadm yet, but just got proposed. http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/InitrdInterface   /etc/initrd-release is the equivalent of /etc/os-release22:22
* slangasek snorts22:22
xnoxslangasek: to detect if systemd is running in the initrd or real machine, which also allows othere processes to check for that file and do special stuff..... or something.....22:23
slangasekI propose that we make /etc/initrd-release a symlink to /dev/zero22:24
slangasekin our initramfs22:24
slangasekin order to detect software which is misbehaving by using this file in Ubuntu22:24

stgraberaccepted grub2, bug 901600 could have been considered a feature but it's a really nice improvement that'll save us from a lot of other problems we had in the past, so if someone asks, I granted a FFe to that bit.22:38

infinitystgraber: Just now?  Kay.23:24
cjwatsonI accidentally released unity-2d/oneiric a few days early (I didn't notice that it was less aged than unity-2d/precise).  Hopefully that won't cause any problems ...23:25
infinitycjwatson: unity needs to go with it, hard library dependency.23:26
infinitycjwatson: Quick, before the publisher runs. :P23:26
cjwatsonSeriously?  FFS.23:26
infinitySRSLY.23:26
highvoltageheh, foundations people are funny.23:26
cjwatsonThanks for the heads-up23:26
cjwatsonIt's just a library rename so going early probably isn't a huge deal anyway.23:27
infinitycjwatson: Yeah, both were ready and verified, I was going to let them fester until Mondy on the off chance someone found a regression, but it seems unlikely.23:27
cjwatson(Well, unity is a bit more I think)23:28
cjwatsonunity/oneiric released now too.23:28
infinityunity was basically just the rename too.23:28
infinityIt just looks bigger because a patch moved from debian/ to upstream.23:28
xnoxIt's like me and slangasek. xnox: "I merged mumble, I hope it will not sabotage the team call." slangasek: "Dude, have you seen the pending debian tech committee dispute on mumble?! It's brakes the world."23:28
cjwatsonBTW I think I've reviewed everything in the queue I have the stomach for at the moment.23:32
infinitycjwatson: All good.  I'm going to do a few/bunch more before I have to shower and head out of the night.23:34
infinitys/of/for/23:34
infinityAlso, I think I'm going to just leave OFFICIAL set to Beta until we move on to Release in a couple weeks.23:35

cjwatsonRight.  ubiquity upload, then bed.23:41
ogasawarawhen someone has a moment, could I get that new kernel (and meta package) approved in the queue?23:41
slangasekfwiw I've looked at the glibmm2.4 in the queue and think I see a problem with it23:50
slangasekleaving it in the queue for now, taking to #ubuntu-devel for discussion with robert_ancell23:50
stgraberI'll take ubiquity23:52
cjwatsonLots of uninstallability right now due to atk1.0 arch skew23:52
cjwatsonI'll do a bit of rescoring for that23:52

cjwatsonAh, that broken POS23:57
infinityHeh.23:57
cjwatsonYou can't really review the blob anyway - the assurance is that the source diff isn't evil23:57
cjwatsonAnyway, it is in the web UI, just not labelled as uefi23:57
infinityAlso, were we going to land an i386 solution too, or are we assuming that all UEFI systems we care about will be amd64?23:57
cjwatsongrub2_2.00-7ubuntu1_amd64.tar.gz (250.1 KiB)23:57
cjwatsonMy levels of caring about i386 UEFI are very low23:58

cjwatsonBut at the moment ... meh23:58
infinitycjwatson: oh, indeed, I misread that as the orig.  I think it's been one of those days.23:58
cjwatsonI won't claim the naming is intuitive.23:58
infinitycjwatson: Well, having uefi in the name, like translations.tar.gz, might be helpful.23:59
cjwatsonYeah.  I think that would need LP code changes.23:59
