hggdh | mfisch: pong | 17:27 |
mfisch | hggdh: I'd like to get the community more involved in helping with Nexus7 bug triage, especially filing upstream, looking for upstream duplicates, etc | 17:28 |
mfisch | hggdh: I've considered an email to bug squad, asking you personally for help, etc. Ideas? | 17:29 |
hggdh | mfisch: let's get balloons involved | 17:29 |
hggdh | mfisch: I think email to bugsquad, bugcontrol, and ubuntu-quality would be good | 17:30 |
hggdh | balloons: ^ | 17:30 |
hggdh | mfisch: of course, you can ask me directly (well, pretty much just did it ;-) | 17:32 |
hggdh | mfisch: and I will certainly help | 17:32 |
mfisch | hggdh: cwayne and I spend more time than we'd like triaging rather than working on fixes | 17:32 |
ali1234 | how can i see a list of nexus7 bugs? | 18:50 |
cwayne | ali1234: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-nexus7 | 18:51 |
ali1234 | thanks | 18:51 |
cwayne | np | 18:51 |

ArcticLight | hi there~ | 20:10 |
ArcticLight | I think I need help filing a bug | 20:11 |
ArcticLight | ubuntu-bug seems to be misbehaving on my system, and I have a crash report I want to file. | 20:13 |
ArcticLight | um... is anyone here? | 20:15 |
mfisch | what is ubuntu-bug doing? | 20:17 |
Pici | ArcticLight: actually, there was a question asked, but you had parted right at that moment. | 20:31 |
Pici | 15:17:25 <mfisch> what is ubuntu-bug doing? | 20:32 |
ArcticLight | Hi, sorry~ | 20:32 |
ArcticLight | Um... It's not doing anything, that's the problem. I have a .crash file I'm trying to send, and choosing "S" for send report causes it to quit and it never opens my browser to file the report. | 20:33 |
mfisch | hmm | 20:35 |
mfisch | does ubuntu-bug log anywhere? I've never seen that before | 20:35 |
ArcticLight | I have no idea, but here's what it looks like in my terminal: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1356408/ | 20:35 |
ArcticLight | It hangs before "Please choose" and pressing S at the hang makes it print "please choose" and quit. | 20:36 |
mfisch | Dumb question but do you need to hit cap S? | 20:36 |
ArcticLight | Tried that, same thing. | 20:37 |
ArcticLight | Okay, so here's something weird. Two files just popped up in /var/crash: they have the same name, but end in ".upload" and ".uploaded", I still have nothing open in any browser, which is the usual behavior of ubuntu-bug | 20:39 |
mfisch | do you need to be root to read that crash file? | 20:39 |
mfisch | some of my crash files have odd permissions too, like 0000 | 20:39 |
ArcticLight | Running it with sudo does exactly the same thing. | 20:39 |
ArcticLight | how would I find out the file permissions? | 20:39 |
ArcticLight | Never mind, and the permissions are such that I should have read access to the file without root. | 20:41 |
mfisch | ArcticLight: can you do a ls -al | 20:43 |
mfisch | ArcticLight: ls -al ./_usr_lib_libreoffice_program_soffice.bin.1000.crash | 20:43 |
ArcticLight | here it is: | 20:44 |
ArcticLight | xyzzy@Quirlbox:/var/crash$ ls -al ./_usr_lib_libreoffice_program_soffice.bin.1000.crash | 20:44 |
ArcticLight | -rw-r----- 1 xyzzy whoopsie 11809149 Nov 13 14:51 ./_usr_lib_libreoffice_program_soffice.bin.1000.crash | 20:44 |
ArcticLight | any ideas what's going on? | 20:47 |
ali1234 | upload and uploaded means the crash files were already uploaded | 20:49 |
ArcticLight | So...... where do I finish filing the bug? because my web browser didn't open. | 20:49 |
ali1234 | you don't | 20:49 |
ali1234 | it's not possible any more | 20:49 |
ali1234 | ubuntu-bug sends the crash files to daisy without user interaction | 20:49 |
ali1234 | you can file a bug on the crashing package by "ubuntu-bug <package>" but there is no way to attach the crash dump to it | 20:50 |
ArcticLight | Okay. NM then, sorry for the misunderstanding. | 20:51 |
* mfisch didn't know that | 20:52 | |
ali1234 | well if anyone knows better i'd like to know about it | 20:52 |
ali1234 | i've been trying to figure out how to do it for 6 months | 20:52 |
ali1234 | see http://askubuntu.com/questions/150476/how-do-i-submit-a-full-bug-report-with-crash-dump-and-steps-to-reproduce | 20:52 |
ali1234 | you can manually attach the crash dump as a normal file and then set the bug private, but this won't result in a retrace getting done or any of the nice stuff it used to do. | 20:54 |
ali1234 | see also https://bugs.launchpad.net/errors/+bug/1061049 | 20:54 |
ubot2 | Launchpad bug 1061049 in Errors "We should allow users to manually input a linked bug and better present both the create and link options" [Medium,Confirmed] | 20:54 |
ArcticLight | Well that's just dandy. Um... thanks for all the help guys. | 20:55 |
ArcticLight | Also, wouldn't it be useful if the ubuntu help page for reporting bugs mentioned this behavior? | 20:56 |
ali1234 | yeah, it's out of date i guess | 20:56 |
ArcticLight | Well thanks for the help, sorry for the misunderstanding. | 20:56 |
ArcticLight | Maybe it would be a good idea for ubuntu-bug to say it's done uploading? Because when it just quit I thought I had broken it. | 20:57 |
ali1234 | well it doesn't wait for the upload to finish - it backgrouds it | 20:57 |
ali1234 | the upload will restart if it doesn't complete | 20:58 |
ali1234 | which is fun when it tries to upload a 2GB core dump | 20:58 |
ali1234 | over and over and over again | 20:58 |
ArcticLight | Okay, then say it is uploading, or at least something, rather than just quitting. in my experience having any terminal program just "quit" after a selection makes me think it crashed. | 20:58 |
ali1234 | sure. not many people will see the terminal stuff though | 20:59 |
ali1234 | normally you just get the apport popup | 20:59 |
ali1234 | you are right of course | 20:59 |
ArcticLight | I installed and enabled apport, and I still don't get the popup when things go wrong. I have to use ubuntu-bug from the terminal | 20:59 |
ali1234 | you should get the "problem report" thing | 21:00 |
ali1234 | it looks like this http://i.stack.imgur.com/iwyYZ.png | 21:01 |
ArcticLight | Nope. Just silent crashes. At the most useful I get a popup from the application itself saying it crashed. Apport doesn't seem to intervene. | 21:01 |
ArcticLight | It did on 12.04 but not on 12.10 when I upgraded. I thought this behavior had been changed~ | 21:02 |
ali1234 | it shouldn't have | 21:02 |
ArcticLight | That's weird then. | 21:02 |
ArcticLight | My whole system has been a bit off since the upgrade to 12.10 ... I figured it was because of normal development changes, but I guess this isn't supposed to be the case? | 21:03 |
ArcticLight | well, more problems to track down then. | 21:05 |
ArcticLight | At this point, with all the little issues I've been having, I'm considering doing a fresh install back to 12.04 instead of running 12.10 | 21:06 |
ArcticLight | Which is sad, because I actually like a lot of the new features of 12.10 | 21:07 |
ArcticLight | anyway, thanks for the help with the bug reporter. | 21:07 |
