slangasekstgraber, ScottK: ^^ should I turn off autobuilds, to let the stuff on http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/255/builds start being validated?00:00
skaetslangasek, checklist for milestones still has 3 days before,  so folks may not be thinking to tell you explicitly.   Can you send email out to ubuntu release?00:00
slangasekskaet: fair enough00:01
slangasekstgraber, ScottK: so, disabling per the above00:01
skaethighvoltage, Riddell (also)  ^ please let slangasek know when you want a rebuild.00:02
Riddellack00:07
stgraberskaet: we're still discussing with highvoltage (in person) but there are good chances we'll do a last minute opt out from alpha-2 as the bits we wanted to land aren't quite there yet and we have 12.04.2 that's much more important to us00:09
infinityplars: How long does it take you to spin up a quick alternate test install?00:42
infinityplars: Comparing file lists, I think it's plausible that I've fixed https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-cdimage/+bug/1121179 in the latest precise dailies, but it needs an install test to be sure it all works.00:43
ubot2Ubuntu bug 1121179 in Ubuntu CD Images "Ubuntu 12.04.2 alternate AMD 64 ISO image Feb 10 installing mesa 8.0.4 not 9.0.0 - LTS quantal" [High,Triaged]00:43
stgraberinfinity: so I have a fix for LTSP itself which I think will work, however I need to come up with some clever hack to test it as it could just be the bug hiding some more X-stack related problems01:22
infinitystgraber: Well, it wouldn't have been x-stack-related at all, it was tripping up trying to install a kernel that's not on the media.01:23
stgraberinfinity: sure, but once it's past that step it'll try to install a bunch of packages which depend on the X stack and we can't see that going until the kernel problem is fixed01:25
infinitystgraber: True.  Though, as long as it's not explicitly installing individual X bits, but rather just installing ubuntu-desktop or something, it should work.01:26
stgraberit's installing individual X bits01:26
infinityOh, that could be fun. :)01:26
stgraberthat's why I'm worried ;)01:26
infinityThey should all be provided in one way or another.01:26
infinityBut we'll see.01:26
stgraberright, for now I'm not changing any of the dependencies and hoping the provides will be enough, otherwise I'll have to add a bunch of XYZ-lts | XYZ to ltsp and ldm01:27
stgraberinfinity: is that the one I need for the X stack ^ or is 11.1 enough?01:29
infinitystgraber: .1 should be fine, this one just drops a langpack.01:31
stgraberok01:31
antarusinfinity: sigh, I see your kernel upload for 3.2 and I just think 'damn why do I roll my own kernel'01:31
infinityantarus: Yeah, why do you?01:31
infinity&^@!$ 708MB and 705MB... So close to 703.01:32
infinityYet so very far.01:32
infinityWe've officially run out of languages to remove (other than English), this could get interesting.01:32
stgraberwho needs English, just ship with C.UTF-8 ;)01:35
infinityDude, I've been making that argument for a while.01:36
antarusinfinity: still trying to figure that part out ;)01:36
infinityantarus: Our kernel SRU release process has gotten remarkably slick over the last year or two, I'd say you can't really go wrong.01:36
antarusI'm fairly sure we have patches you won't take01:38
infinityTry us.01:38
infinity(Or, better yet, get them upstream)01:38
antarusI'm fairly sure we have patches we can't release, period ;)01:38
antaruscertainly for new stuff01:38
infinityOh, that's problematic. :P01:38
antarusI'm basically the guy that maintains the kernel01:39
antarusand I don't know anything about kernels01:39
antarusso...01:39
antarusI mostly tell them to get linus to apply it01:39
antarusand then I'll backpor tit01:39
infinityThough, if your patches are sanely self-contained, you could look at just tracking our kernels and rebasing on them, which is cake.01:39
antarusyeah01:39
antaruswe do that for upstream right now01:39
infinityIf you look at how Andy set up -lowlatency, tracking/rebasing as another flavour would be minimal effort.01:40
antarusIt was not clear to me why we selected upstream instead of you as the base01:40
antarusbut I was new to the team at the time01:40
infinityI have a desperate need to take a break and watch cartoons.  Back in a bit.01:40
stgraberinfinity: got a successful install here. Will have the package uploaded in a few minutes once I confirmed the installed system is fine.02:07
infinitystgraber: Does that successful install also mean my change to the alternates was fine (ie: can I close that bug)?02:07
stgraberinfinity: I think so, let me quickly check if my dpkg -l is full of -lts stuff02:07
stgraberinfinity: yep, installed system is full of -lts-quantal packages02:08
infinity\o/02:08
smoserskaet, we can re-spin to pick up a kernel, it can't hurt. whe nis that due ?02:08
smoserutlemming, ^02:08
smoserwe're planning on tagging something as "alpha-2", so we'd like that to have the newest kernel available at the time.02:08
stgraberinfinity: there you go ^ it's only been tested on an hand-patched amd64 d-i install but I think the code is sane (unless you don't have any of those packages, but then, it should fail anyway)02:17
plarsinfinity: back now if you have something you want me to try04:03
ScottKslangasek: I just pushed up the same britney block we used for Alpha 1 (I was supposed to have improved it, but I haven't had time).05:08
ScottKskaet, Riddel, stgraber: ^^^05:08
slangasekScottK: cheers05:08
stgraberslangasek: infinity doesn't seem to be around at the moment, if you have a sec can you review ltsp in precise-proposed?05:10
slangasekooking05:10
slangaseklooking, too05:10
slangasekstgraber: can you spell out a test case in the bug report quickly?05:11
stgraberslangasek: oh, I assumed we had a better description in that bug ;)05:12
slangasekthe diff itself looks fine05:13
stgraberslangasek: bug updated05:14
ScottKIt would be nice, if someone has a minute, to get the MRE updates for postfix into precise/quantal proposed while they are still an MR update of the version that's in raring (shortly they'll be the version that used to be in raring).05:14
ScottKPersonally, I'm running it in production, that's how confident I am of it.05:15
stgraberslangasek: it's not really easy to test the new package without building the media with it though. The only way I could think of is to let it fail, undo what the first try did, use netcat to write the new script in place of the old version, then have d-i retry.05:16
slangasekstgraber: is the media currently being built without -proposeD?05:16
stgraberslangasek: indeed it's05:17
slangasekstgraber: I guess we (you) could do a test build with -proposed back on, for validation?05:17
stgraberslangasek: so my current plan is to md5sum the script in the new binary package against the one I used in my test VM, if they match, I'll just mark the bug verification-done because that'll be identical to me doing another install and will save me an hour05:17
slangasekok05:20
stgraberright, just pulled from LP, md5sum of the script in the binary package matches the one on my working installed system05:21
stgraberslangasek: looks like it's built everywhere already, so once that's published I guess we're good to have this copied and unless we're waiting on something else, then respin the alternate images05:24
smartboyhwHey Noskcaj05:27
Noskcajhey smartboyhw05:27
slangasekstgraber: can you keep an eye on it and let me know when it's published so I can copy?  I'm only half here at the moment05:27
smartboyhwchilicui1, would you like to fix Bug 1122293 or I do it?05:35

didrocksinfinity: hey, do you know if some builders are stuck? on https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-unity/+archive/daily-build/+build/4293814, it's been at least 10 minutes that I spotted it doesn't move (and I doubt libappindicator is taking 8 hours to build as previous ones were ~26 minutes)10:34
=== mmrazik is now known as mmrazik|lunch
infinitydidrocks: That's going to be an angry build, not an angry builder, I bet.  I'll look into it.10:36
infinitydidrocks: Does it have a testsuite that, say, backgrounds something (maybe dbus?) and then fails to clean up?10:36
didrocksinfinity: it's using dbus-test-runner, so I assume that yes, can it be stuck randomly because of that? (previous builds worked IIRC)10:39
didrocksbut dbus-test-runner has a 300s timeout though10:40
infinitydidrocks: Is that the same thing that keeps breaking hud builds? >:(10:40
didrocksinfinity: well, same upstream, so probably same issue :)10:40
infinitydidrocks: It's clearly not fixed, and it's really pissing me off at this point.10:40
didrocksinfinity: did you ping tedg about it?10:40
infinityYes.  Several times.10:41
infinityAnd he put someone else on it, apparently.10:41
didrocksdo you know who this is?10:41
infinityAnd then webops has had to clean up their builds every day.10:41
infinitySo, yay.10:41
infinityNo idea who.10:41
didrocksinfinity: ok, I'll check with him, sorry for the stuck build10:41
didrocksand do both at the same time10:41
didrocksand ensure it's timely done10:41
didrocksinfinity: what process is stuck? is it dbus-test-runner itself or a dbus-launch one?10:42

didrocks(if you have a bug report, it would be easier to track/beat the hammer ;))10:42
infinity^-- Those are the two we always have to kill.10:42
infinitydidrocks: I don't tend to file bug reports against private PPAs...10:43
infinity(Which this has been, up until today)10:43
didrocksinfinity: it's good to know the HUD is also affected, I was going to add it to the public release this week10:44
infinitydidrocks: Also, we see it a LOT on quantal/i386, for some reason, though this was raring/armhf this time, so it's clearly not a Q-specific thing.  But that might make it easier to reproduce.10:44
didrocksinfinity: yeah, here it's against raring, I think dbus-test-runner is just killing itself and not the dbus daemon that is spaws reliably10:44
didrocksinfinity: FYI: bug #112294810:46
ubot2Launchpad bug 1122948 in dbus-test-runner (Ubuntu) "dbus-test-runner is not killing dbus reliably" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/112294810:46
infinitydidrocks: That would seem to be the gist of it, yes.10:46
infinitydidrocks: I pointed ted at the telepathy-glib testsuite that gets this right, and got snarky responses about dbus-testrunner being "better" and "more modern" or something.10:47
infinityMy argument is that it's clearly not better because it breaks. :P10:47
didrocksinfinity: ahah, I experienced the same when talking about direct dbus-launch :p10:47
didrocksinfinity: well, issues can happens when building something news, fixing timely though is required when it's a regression to what worked in the past10:47
infinityI'm all for people fixing their crap.  I'm just annoyed that we asked, what, two weeks ago to "disable these builds until the bug is fixed", and got nothing.10:49
didrocksinfinity: I agree with you, I'll get that on their list for sure and tell we won't release it in ubuntu until it's done properly10:50

ogra_oh, cool !11:27
cjwatsonogra_'s care factor for cadejo suddenly plummets11:28
ogra_haha11:28
ogra_well, we need to make a decision about panda desktop builds at some point11:28
infinitycjwatson: The alternate x-stack snafu appears to be good, images are barely oversizes and we've run out of languages to drop, so not sure what we want to do with that, and my apt backport is in the queue and should be harmless, if you want to review it, but it's probably too late regardless.11:28
infinityogra_: cadejo seems up now.11:29
=== doko_ is now known as doko
ogra_(TI dropped OMAP and we will likely not recieve drivers anmore ... in that light we likely need to re-consider building desktop images on pandas)11:29
ogra_but i also think we shouldnt drop desktop on arm completely ... since it will be base for things like U4A11:30
ogra_infinity, thx11:30
cjwatsoninfinity: I'll review the apt backport and probably let it into -proposed, but I don't think I'll take it for .211:31
cjwatsonOversized - I'll have a look but we may just end up release-noting11:32
cjwatsonI suspect today is mostly me going through release notes and working out what hasn't been written yet11:32
infinityogra_: cadejo should work.  Maybe.11:32
ogra_k, we'll see what it spits out over the day ...11:33
infinitycjwatson: Yeah, not a huge loss if the apt thing makes post-.2... It just means the .2 install kernel will me marked manually installed.11:33
