=== cpg is now known as cpg|away
cjwatsonblami: it's also not unusual to create snapshot tarballs; I believe/suspect that git-buildpackage can help with that02:12
Bluefoxicyi just cannot figure tasksel out.02:16
BluefoxicyI mean look at the entry for openssh-server in /usr/share/tasksel/ubuntu-tasks.desc02:16
cjwatsonsure, people asked for that 'cos it was handy02:17
BluefoxicySame thing except Task:  puppet, Description:  Puppet configuration agent, Key: puppet, and it ... does nothing.  The option shows up, but it doesn't actually do anything.02:17
Bluefoxicychanged Package: task-fields to Package: puppet and it works, except gives errors before installing the appropriate package, because it expects another file at /usr/lib/tasksel/packages/puppet02:18
cjwatsonwhich is probably because you don't have any packages with Task: puppet in your Packages files02:18
Bluefoxicyah02:18
cjwatsonpretty sure this is documented in tasksel's readme02:18
Bluefoxicyso this requires modifying the repository as well02:18
Bluefoxicyhttp://fts.ifac.cnr.it/cgi-bin/dwww/usr/share/doc/tasksel/README.gz here somewhere?02:19
cjwatsonwell, if you want to use task-fields, but you don't have to02:19
BluefoxicyI probably missed it when I read through02:19
cjwatsondunno, not going to look now to see if that's vaguely current02:19
Bluefoxicyno problem, at least I've got vaguely a better understanding now.02:19
BluefoxicyAlso, any chance of getting puppet and/or chef promoted to main any time soon?02:20
cjwatsonyou want "Packages: list", probably, for which therea's an example near the top of the readme.02:20
cjwatsonno idea about that; not something I care about.02:20
Bluefoxicyheh I have a dozen servers to administrate in an enterprise environment </buzzwords>; it's something *I* care about.02:21
BluefoxicyWho in the hell thought up the word "enterprise" anyway?02:21
* Bluefoxicy tries to find the release roadmap for 13.04, and finds Google results like "Ubuntu already scoping out an April release date..." ... uh... it's a 6 month release cycle, always has been, what's special about this?02:25

micahgBluefoxicy: puppet is in main04:14
=== cpg is now known as cpg|away
=== fisted is now known as fistmas
Bluefoxicymicahg:  .... how does this keep happening to me?04:20
micahgBluefoxicy: rmadison puppet :)04:20
Bluefoxicythat's like the fifth time I've looked at a package, wondered why it's not main, posted to the mailing list, and someone tells me it is indeed in main.04:20
Bluefoxicyand I look and it is indeed04:21
Bluefoxicywell then I am going to go post "I am an idiot.  Can we have a tasksel too?"04:21
* micahg doesn't know how those work offhand04:23
* Bluefoxicy already wrote one04:23
Bluefoxicyhttp://pastebin.com/6Xqz2KLt This works.  I don't know what "Relevance" does.04:26
Bluefoxicyhuh.04:30
Bluefoxicyapt puts the proxy stuff in /etc/apt/apt.conf instead of /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/01proxy04:30
* Bluefoxicy punched in proxy information for his apt-cacher server at the installation prompt on the mini install CD.04:30
infinityBluefoxicy: Having tasks for single packages seems silly.05:22
infinityBluefoxicy: (And before you quote openssh-server as a precedent, note that that's a pretty rare/special case in that it's installed on 99% of servers, but we don't install services by default, so that was the compromise... puppet's nowhere near as ubiquitous)05:23
=== cpg|away is now known as cpg
cjwatsonBluefoxicy: pkgsel/include=puppet would probably be way less effort09:28
=== tkamppeter_ is now known as tkamppeter

Bluefoxicyinfinity:  true, i'm not sure the purpose of specifying something in tasksel though.  There's an openssh server task.10:30
infinityBluefoxicy: Like I said, openssh is a bit of a special case to make it more prominent in the installer, that's all.10:44
BluefoxicyI thought the purpose was to advertise different types of servers that Ubuntu can be, kind of like the Roles installer in Windows 2008 Server10:45
infinityBluefoxicy: It was a compromise between "we don't install network services by default" and "everyone expects a server to have SSH running", so people would see it listed right at the top and install it if they needed it.10:45
infinityBluefoxicy: The OTHER tasks are for what you say, yes.  But they're larger tasks, not just single packages.10:46
Bluefoxicywell, having run CentOS/RHEL/Fedora, I can get on board with that10:46
Bluefoxicygod damn six billion things load at boot and you have a thousand ports open, this is an "enterprise" OS???10:46
infinitytjaalton: No dice on the Vt-d BIOS disabling.  Just got the lockup again. :/10:47
Bluefoxicyalso it's not right at the top anymore I think10:47
infinitytjaalton: In the new year, you might need to hand-hold me through some useful debugging for you, if you can't manage to reproduce this, cause it's pretty glaringly unfriendly behaviour for people who aren't me.10:47
Bluefoxicytasksel seems to sort alphabetically10:47
infinityBluefoxicy: Oh, that may be so.  It's been a while since I've actually looked at that dialog for more than a split second.10:48
