Davieyseb128: Are you able to provide a debian/watch for geary?10:21
seb128Daviey, I guess yes10:22
Daviey(currently, i cannot validate the orig src tarball)10:22
seb128Daviey, the tarball is coming from http://www.yorba.org/download/geary/0.2/geary-0.2.0.tar.xz10:22
Davieyseb128: ok, rejected this.. Can you add a watch file, and re-upload please?10:23
seb128sure10:23
Davieyseb128: (everything else looks good, will accept then)10:24
seb128Daviey, is that a new thing requiring a watch file? ;-) just curious, it feels weird :p10:24
cjwatsonMIRs strongly suggest it; archive acceptance doesn't generally10:25
Davieyseb128: jdstrand was mostly the driver for this.  It's not a firm requirement but a best practice that AA's seem to be pushign for.  If a watch file isn't viable, then a debian/rules get-orig-source (or packaged-source) or a debian/Readme.source explaining how it was created.10:25
cjwatsonthe MIR team is pushing for it, not AAs10:25
cjwatsonit wouldn't be practical to enforce something like that over the whole archive10:26
Davieywell, considering the complexity of most watch files.. I don't think it is a bad idea10:26
cjwatsonI think many things are a good idea but wouldn't reject for their absence10:26
DavieyNote, i did ask if it was viable before rejecting10:26
cjwatson"accept with suggestions" is usually a better workflow10:26

jdstrandcjwatson, seb128, Daviey: I have been pushing for a watch file as an AA where practical (eg, certainly not native packages). a watch file is gives us the only glimmer of a possibility to be able to do an integrity check of the archive12:49
jdstrand(systematically)12:49
cjwatsonThere's still no point in rejecting on it because Debian doesn't12:50
cjwatsonOffer advice, certainly12:50
seb128jdstrand, hey, ok, fair enough, it's just something that wasn't flagged as important on my checklist until today, but that makes sense12:50
jdstrandI don't think I've ever rejecting on that reason alone12:50
jdstrandrejected12:50
cjwatsonRight.  Daviey did12:50
cjwatsonI guess what I'm saying is that having inconsistent standards based on non-agreed whims of individual AAs makes it unnecessarily difficult for uploaders12:51
DavieyI didn't just reject out of hand, I did check if it was reasonable to do first.12:51
jdstrandI might file a bug-- certainly give advice. I'd even phrase it as one of a list of things that needed to be fixed before being accepted12:51
cjwatsonI wouldn't have rejected even after checking that it was reasonable to add the watch file.12:51
cjwatsonI'd have let the uploader add it in a subsequent upload.12:51
jdstrandactually, we discussed this before12:51
jdstrandI forget if it was at a rally/sprint or a uds (not a session)12:52
cjwatsonIt came up at a rally in the context of MIRs only12:52
jdstrandright12:52
jdstrandah, that was the other bit-- main only12:52
cjwatsonLook, I'm not objecting to people trying to improve the archive12:52
jdstrandbut I wasn't a mir reviewer at the time12:52
jdstrandI was pushing it as an aa12:53
cjwatsonI'm just saying that archive rejections are an awfully heavy tool for doing so12:53
DavieyI know that I've been unsuccessful in getting debian sponsorship for NEW without a watch file on two occasions, but that is sponsors etiquette rather than polciy.12:53
cjwatsonSponsors can and should be stricter than the base requirements for archive acceptance12:53
jdstrandI would agree with that-- I also wouldn't nak something that went through Debian NEW (I would file a bug there). I do strongly encourage new Ubuntu uploads to have one though12:54
cjwatsonI mean, a sponsor might reasonably ask you to fix typos in your package description, but it'd be ridiculous to reject for that12:54
jdstrandlet me rephrase: I wouldn't nak something that went through Debian NEW based on lack of a watch file alone12:54
* jdstrand nods12:55
DavieyI do like to check that what is in orig, is the true orig whilst reviewing.  Without one of the ways to get the source it does make life harder.  Considering the simplicity in most cases of writing a watch file, it also seems wise to promote it as a best pratice.12:55
cjwatsonLack of best practice != reject12:55
cjwatsonThat's all I'm saying12:55
DavieyIf the consensus is different, then ok, i won;t do that12:55
cjwatsonOtherwise I'd reject a LOT more and I don't think that would actually help12:55
cjwatsonIt would just reduce velocity and piss people off12:55
jdstrandDaviey: I whole-heartedly agree with checking the orig.tar.gz-- I have found cases where they were different (not ever malicious, but still)12:56
jdstrandI also agree that if other nakable things are wrong, listing the watch file as a requirement is ok. if it is only the watch file, a bug seems fine12:56
jdstrandeg, maybe treat it like lintian warnings12:56
jdstrandnakable-- that looks funny :)12:57
cjwatsonWe should probably have a fork of http://ftp-master.debian.org/REJECT-FAQ.html12:57
jdstrandyeah12:58
jdstrandI added it to my todo list12:58
Davieycjwatson: Do you think a UDS session for this makes sense?  More of a standardisation healthcheck?12:58
cjwatsonIt's probably the kind of thing that would work better by e-mail12:59
* jdstrand doesn't think it needs a session12:59
jdstrandcjwatson: +112:59
jdstrandso, while I've added it to my todo list, there is a fairly good chance I will not get to it super-soon13:00
Davieybah, these sort of threads rarely end in consensus IMO :).. but ok13:00
jdstrand(there is a good deal of understatement there ;)13:00
cjwatsonArtificial consensus by doing it in a room while nobody's watching doesn't count :-)13:00
cjwatsonIf a session, it should at most be an exercise for gathering suggestions that form the agenda for a thread13:00
cjwatsonIMO13:00
jdstrandDaviey: actually, I've had the opposite experience with ubuntu-archive13:00
DavieyOkay, i'll shuddup.13:01
jdstrandheh. I don't think that is quite what I said :P13:01
jdstrandbut if it works...13:01
jdstrand;)13:01
Davieyheh13:01
* jdstrand hugs Daviey 13:01
jdstrandDaviey: seriously though, thanks for the careful reviews and bringing this up. it will (eventually) end up as something good for the team13:03
Davieyjdstrand: well, i certainly agree with the need for standardisation.  I know i found it frustrating when i was a newcomer.13:04

stgraberdarkxst, cjwatson: I'll take a look. I'm planning to spend some more time on casper today trying to reduce the bug count a bit.13:11
cjwatsonDaviey: You mean the compiler warnings?13:12
Davieycjwatson: roaksoax/doko made it sound like it wasn't reasonably failing on error.13:13
jdstrandDaviey: are you referring to the compiler warnings? those don't fail the build unless you build with -Werror13:13
Davieyhttp://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2012/10/02/%23ubuntu-server.html#t14:4913:14
cjwatsonI don't see any warnings in https://launchpadlibrarian.net/108137937/buildlog_ubuntu-quantal-i386.freeipmi_1.1.5-3_BUILDING.txt.gz13:14
cjwatsonEr, any errors, I mean13:14
cjwatsonRight, I disagree that those warnings should fail the build13:15
cjwatson-Werror is a good thing for upstreams to use during development; it's highly questionable at a distribution scale13:15
DavieyI suspect it's misscommunication, jdstrand wanted the Warnings looked at.. and it was interrupted wrongly.13:15
* jdstrand nods13:15
cjwatsonAnd doko wasn't talking about the build system there, anyway; he was suggesting behaviour of the C code13:16
jdstranddoko summarized it pretty clearly in his initial response, fwiw13:16
jdstrandwell, to me anyway, cause I knew what I wanted :)13:16
Daviey3 way failure :).. i see that now, i've bothered looking at the warning :)13:16
stgraberdarkxst: posted a comment about some problems in your MP13:17
cjwatsonwarn_unused_result is often worth fixing but has a fair few false positives too13:17
cjwatsonAnd unfortunately there's been a bit of an arms race on how to silence it, so what seems like an obvious (void) cast doesn't actually work13:17

zygaI'm logged in to both macines via console17:39
zygasyslog, not much, let me re-check17:39
zygaok, watching syslog now, I'll restart lightdm17:40
sarnoldzyga: how about /var/log/Xorg.0.log?17:40
sarnold(or the other displays...)17:40
sarnoldany EE lines? WW lines?17:40
zygasyslog -- nothing acpid and backlight noise17:40
zygachecking x17:40
zygaupon starting I briefly switch to vt717:41
zygathen screen goes blank and reverts to vt717:41
zygain text mode17:41
zygasarnold: it ends with 'server terminated sucessfully'17:41
zygasarnold: I'm not sure how this part of boot works17:42
dobeyis there any where to see an overview of package sets in ubuntu, showing the status of all the packages in that set?17:42
micahgdobey: define status?17:42
sarnoldzyga: hrm, maybe your session starts, dies, and then X quits as it expects a short session to do?17:42
zygaok17:43
zygawhat gets started?17:43
zygacan I check any config files17:43
zygaand run it myself?17:43
dobeymicahg: currently accepted versions in ubuntu at least would be a good start. unapproved queue and all would be nice too of course17:43
sarnoldzyga: how about ~/.xsession-errors ?17:43
zygais that still managed with xsession?17:43
dobeyzyga: on the gma500, switch to vt1, log in, service lightdm restart17:43
zygadobey: it does not help, I'm using this gma500 daily and it was working just fine17:44
dobeyzyga: my gma500 laptop does the same thing since precise. and on it lightdm seems to show on only half of the screen until i restart it17:44
zygadobey: on quantal it actually got usable :)17:44
infinitydobey: I know of no such report.17:44
zygasarnold: so, gnome-panel crashes17:44
dobeyzyga: i just upgraded to quantal on that machine, and no change. does the same thing for me :)17:44
dobeyinfinity: ok, thanks17:44
zygaactually there's a lot of errors there17:44
zygaI need to have a look17:45
micahgdobey: something like this? https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+uniquepackages?field.name_filter=&field.package_type=all&field.package_type-empty-marker=1&field.packageset=146 (17:45
micahgdobey: that's ubuntu specific packages though17:45
cjwatsonsigh, webkit/armel failed again17:45
cjwatsonLaney: ^017:46
zygadobey: which machine do you have?17:46
dobeyzyga: fujitsu u82017:46
dobeymicahg: something like that, yeah. would be nice to have that work on all series too, and not just one at a time; but it's a start :)17:47
zygadobey: hmm, I don't know that model, I'm using second gen vaio-p17:47
dobeyzyga: it's not a common laptop. it's a 5.6" ultra-portable :)17:47
zygadobey: I'll have to look it up, neither is mine, it's rather cool form-factor wise :)17:49
dobeyyeah, just remembered the P is the 1600x900 weird one17:49
* zyga uses an ipad to browse the web while some packages get downloaded 17:49
dobeyerr, 1600x800 even17:49
zyga1900x768 IIRC17:49
zygaer17:49
zyga1600x76817:49
dobeythe one that looks like a wallet :)17:50
micahgslangasek: are you uploading all the metas or just ubuntu desktop for the pam-xdg support?17:50
slangasekmicahg: was only uploading ubuntu-meta; I don't know what else other teams might have staged17:51
micahgok, thanks17:51

infinitycjwatson: I think this is now down to trying to debug why the buildds hate us, rather than fiddling more and more with packaging.17:54
=== dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates
infinitycjwatson: I need to try to reproduce this locally, probably, since puppetting GSA through endless procfs tweaks to test in production sounds like it would get annoying to both of us pretty quickly.17:55
LaneyBah, yeah, probably for the best.18:06
brycehis there a comprehensive listing of all the .deb's present on the precise ubuntu desktop image?18:28
micahgbryceh: manifest file?18:30
micahgwait, debs?18:30
brycehmicahg, well, the question is what packages are included in a generic ubuntu install as of 12.04.118:31
micahghrm, do an install then grab dpkg -l?18:31
micahgthe manifest has what's in the squashfs AIUI18:32
micahgbut that's not the same as installed18:32
xnoxbryceh: and it depends on the installation type: langpacks, detected hardware, whether network was available and install updates was ticked as well as whether third-party proprietary was ticked.18:35

cjwatsoninfinity: OTOH I see qt4-x11 finally managed to build20:17
infinitycjwatson: Yeah, via magic or sheer luck.20:17
infinitycjwatson: I think that was the second try for both arches.20:17
ScottKI think armel went in one try, but I'm not sure.20:18
Laneypretty sure it did20:25
barrydobey: ping, re: bug 711162.  is this really a bug in dbus-python or can i remove the dbus-python bug task?20:25
ubottuLaunchpad bug 711162 in dbus-python (Ubuntu Quantal) "ubuntuone-login crashed with ValueError in call_async(): Unable to guess signature from an empty dict" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/71116220:25
infinityScottK: Right, looking at the build timestamps, looks like armel went in one go, armhf took two.  So, sort of progress, but not really. :P20:27
ScottKA win is a win.20:27
infinity(At least it's built for now)20:27
ScottKBut yeay, it could be better.20:27
infinityScottK: Yeah, it's only a win from my perspective if we can reproducibly build the thing. :/20:27
dobeybarry: i think it should probably be considered a bug in it. dbus should know the expected signature for the method being called already, and should be able to coerce an empty dict to match the method's signature. at least, that's how i'd expect the dbus API to work20:29
dobeybarry: we've worked around it in u1 for now, but it might come up again in the future elsewhere. but it's your call if you want to drop dbus-python from that20:30
barrydobey: cool.  let me see if i can boil it down into something reportable upstream.  i'll leave the bug task alone for now20:31
ScottKinfinity: Do you have an ETA in -proposed for the redo of your eglibc SRU?20:38
infinityScottK: Today.20:39
ScottKThanks.20:39
barrydobey: on further examination, i'm going to remove the bug task.  this isn't a bug in dbus, it's a deliberate refusal to guess when not enough information is available.  e.g. this comment:20:42
barry/* No items, so fail. Or should we guess "a{vv}"? */20:43
barrydobey: so, i suppose it would be a wishlist to do that guess, or an upstream bug in the documentation that signatures of empty dicts cannot be introspected.20:43
dobeybarry: well i wouldn't say it guesses. it introspects the signature from the method being called, is my understanding. but i'm not going to bother arguing with upstream about it. like i said, do what you will. :)20:46
barrydobey: right, but in the case of empty dicts, introspection doesn't provide enough information to know the mapping.  so the refusal to guess is pythonically zen :)20:47
dobeybarry: no, i don't mean introspecting from the caller. i mean introspecting from the server side. ie, it already knows the expected signature is ia{ss} or whatever for example. it could then coerce {} to be {"", ""} or just send whatever an acceptable equivalent is to mean empty. of course, if dbus has no way to send empy values at all, that's another issue.20:49
dobeybut again, not a huge deal20:49
dobeyjust really annoying20:49
barrydobey: cool20:49
Davieymdeslaur: dbus doesn't run it's test suite at build time?21:16
mdeslaurDaviey: I don't believe they work on the buildds, they require X and a bunch of stuff IIRC21:21
Davieymdeslaur: ahh21:28
mdeslaurDaviey: I haven't looked closely at it though21:29
