cjwatsoninfinity: I seem to remember you saying that some compilers seemed to be generating non-armhf binaries on armhf; were you aware of fpc being in that category?  (dozzaqueux build failure)00:10
infinitycjwatson: Yes, it's a glibc bug I'm trying to hunt down.00:20
infinitycjwatson: Lazy compilers (like fpc) don't regenerate the eabi ELF headers, but rather trust that crt*.o are correct and blindly link them, and crt*.o are no longer being generated with correct eabi headers.00:20
infinityThere was a massive refactoring of how crt*.o are generated in 2.16, just need to hunt down how that broke.00:21
infinity(It does affect things built with GGC, as it generates the correct bits itself)00:21
infinitys/does/doesn't/00:23
cjwatsonRight, thanks.00:32
=== Ursinha-afk is now known as Ursinha
infinitycjwatson: Tomorrow's a day off for me, so I may do some upstream hunting of said glibc bug, given that I have no grand plans.01:09
stgrabersomeone's been busy processing SRUs. thanks!01:40
cjwatsonJust trying to compensate a little for the pile I've been adding for SB01:47
xnox=)02:32
* xnox ponders how to make enigmail add hard << thunderbird dependency, such that britney stops thunderbird migrating without a matching/updated enigmail.02:32
infinityxnox: It used to have one, and it was removed, to be fair. :P02:40
infinityxnox: But that was a loooong time ago.02:40
infinityxnox: Back when extensions could stay compatible for years, all the needed was a manifest that wasn't over specific.02:41
infinitys/the/they/02:41
* xnox grumbles02:41
infinityAnyhow, it's not hard to add it back.02:42
infinityYou'll probably want to talk to Chris or Micah, and make sure it's committed to the right bits for them to not lose it again.02:42
xnoxwell there is a new upstream point release...02:43
infinityYeah, those shouldn't be breaking compat for extensions anyway...02:43
infinityWell, didn't use to. :/02:43
infinityThe New World Order may play more fast and loose with ABI.02:44
infinityI dunno.02:44
xnoxthe diff is big in the point release, it vaguely suggests api changes.02:49
* xnox goes to have my second sleep02:51
* infinity glares at erlang-jiffy's continued failure on PPC.06:40
infinityGrr, and it doesn't fail on my local PPC machine.  That's disconcerting.06:55
infinityAaand, this is because perl is segfaulting only on ppc64 kernels, which I don't run locally.07:39
infinityI think it might be bedtime, rather than caring about that.07:39

psivaacjwatson: xnox: I could not see raring desktop & server images for today and yesterday. Is it due to any known reasons?10:57
cjwatsonpsivaa: For desktop, I'm not desperately convinced that all the livefs builders are working properly for raring yet - I'm not seeing any logs from other than amd64 or powerpc.  I don't know whether that's the root cause though.11:01
cjwatsonHm, maybe that's not it11:01
cjwatsonThe logs seem incomplete11:01
cjwatsonOh, here, stuck builds11:02
cjwatsonLooks like celbalrai had a sad11:02
cjwatsonI'll chase it up11:02
psivaacjwatson: thanks, out of curiosity is http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/cd-build-logs/ubuntu/raring/ the place to look for jobs?11:02
psivaaor is there any other place for me to see live logs ?11:03
cjwatsonlivefs-build-logs/raring/ubuntu/ is earlier in the process11:03
cjwatsonBut it's not totally helpful here because of the exact way it all got stuck11:03
cjwatsonI had to look at the process list on nusakan11:03
psivaaahh ack, get it. thanks11:04
xnoxcjwatson: do we have any kind of nagios-like monitoring to check the timestamps of the logs & check for hung processes?11:11
xnoxe.g. such that a query "why images are not built on day X" can be answered automatically.11:12
cjwatsonNo11:12
xnox=/11:12
cjwatsonBut I would rather make it not hang this way, than entrench the problem by monitoring for it11:12
xnoxack.11:13
cjwatsonA single dead builder shouldn't snarl up the whole system11:13
* ogra-cb_ would still appreciate if someone could let linux-nexus7 out of NEW12:03
=== mmrazik|lunch is now known as mmrazik
xnoxcjwatson: is it intended to only have /casper/vmlinuz.efi.signed on the desktop cd? and no /casper/vmlinuz ? my non-sb & non-uefi VM fails to boot =)13:48
cjwatsonThat's intended, but the breakage isn't13:48
xnoxack.13:48
cjwatsonLet me fix that quickly13:48
cjwatsonHmm, there were problems with 8.3 limitations13:49
cjwatsonArgh13:49
cjwatsonI'll have to change ubiquity to make this work, I think13:50
xnoxhmm???? the iso doesn't boot, so I don't get ubiquity yet....13:51
cjwatsonIt's complicated13:51
cjwatsonYes I know, but trust me :)13:51
xnox=))))13:51
xnoxok. I'm guessing if "8.3 limitations" and "Argh" are mentioned it's all that ugly.... =))))13:52
TheLordOfTimeis this where i'd come to ask whether an SRU actually made it to -updates for precise?  (to confirm something)13:55
TheLordOfTimeor should i be asking elsewhere13:55
cjwatsonxnox: Basically the answer is probably to call it vmlinuz.efi instead so that isolinux can be told to boot from it, but if I do that then I have to change everything that expects to be working with .efi.signed13:55
cjwatsonTheLordOfTime: http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/pending-sru.html13:55
cjwatsonTheLordOfTime: Or rmadison13:55
TheLordOfTimecjwatson, rmadison works only when you're on an Ubuntu system.  I'm not.  and its not a pending SRU, its one that i was informed was already complete.13:56
xnoxcjwatson: ack and sigh.13:56
* TheLordOfTime wants to confirm that13:56
cjwatsonTheLordOfTime: It works fine on Debian too if you give it the right URL13:56
cjwatsonTheLordOfTime: And, uh, you apparently miss my point13:56
TheLordOfTimecjwatson, again, implies you're on Linux or Debian13:56
* TheLordOfTime sighs13:56
TheLordOfTimewhatever, i'll just go check via the code system13:57
xnoxTheLordOfTime: http://pad.lv/u/$pkgname13:57
cjwatsonTheLordOfTime: If it's in -proposed and not -updates, it'll be listed on that page; if not, it won't13:57
cjwatsonTheLordOfTime: Or check https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/PACKAGE/+publishinghistory13:57
xnoxTheLordOfTime: and in that url see the publishing history / full changelog.13:57
Mirvhi! we've one bamf cherry-pick in precise SRU queue, and we'd like to get it handled into precise-proposed since we'd already have the next SRU brewing after it...14:11
* Mirv carefully highlights infinity to point to the above ^ as per vanguard list in wiki14:14
Mirvit's been in the queue for a week, and then it should spend another week at least in proposed14:15
cjwatsonMirv: Sorry for the delay.  Accepted now.14:43
Mirvthanks!14:56
cjwatsonxnox: signed kernel> should, I *think*, all be fixed tomorrow15:49
xnoxcjwatson: ack. I will verify ;-) Thank you.15:50
xnoxcjwatson: are you doing this fix for 12.04.2 as well?!15:50
xnoxor not affected?15:51
cjwatsonNot affected yet, but I probably will backport it.15:51
cjwatsonOnce we know it all works.15:52
cjwatsonFor 12.04.2 we want to ship only the signed kernel on the image, which is what provoked this breakage.15:52
cjwatsonThe precise backport of SB support is only partly complete as yet; I'm waiting on some more SRU queue processing.15:52
Laneycan I copy up brasero from q-updates to r-proposed?16:52
cjwatsonSure, if there are no changes from quantal to raring, and if you can get it to not time out (there are some problems in this area at the moment)16:53
Laneyheh, I'm guessing the timeouts are to do with binaries somehow (initially forgot -b and it didn't time out in several runs, but now reliably does with -b)17:10
cjwatsonYes17:11
cjwatson(self-rejected to replace it with a fix from raring)17:24

* cjwatson sets up raring milestones as agreed at UDS (I think)20:19
cjwatsonpersia: You have a work item on foundations-r-schedule which is annotated as "must be done within a week of UDS"20:20
ScottKcjwatson: For flavours doing traditional Alpha/Betas (Kubuntu is one), we were hoping to get the traditional milestones too.20:46
cjwatsonHm, messy, but OK, let me see20:47
ScottKThanks.20:50
cjwatsonScottK: ddone20:50
cjwatson*done20:50
ScottKExcellent.20:50
* ScottK gives up on trying to run remove-package from an airplane.22:02
ScottKIf you try to clean up quantal-proposed, don't remove culmus and gdebi.  I got that far before the latency was too high.22:04
stgraber^ thanks23:19
