TheMusojbicha_: I'm just looking at your cogl/clutter sponsorship item in the queue and see its taken care of. I do note that there is no bug closure statement in the changelog. Could you please include this in the future such that the bug is closed, and the bug is removed from the queue such that pilots don't have to take time to follow things up and close the bug?00:03
jbicha_TheMuso: oops, I did put the bug # in the clutter upload but the other problem is that I don't think it will actually autoclose until it migrates out of -proposed00:05
TheMusoI know that, but I could at least see that its in proposed, and leave it at that, knowing that the bug will get closed.00:05
TheMusoChecking that its in proposed doesn't take that long.00:06

bochecha_jbicha: hi, this is a bit off-topic for this channel, but it's the only one where I see you active. You seem to have made the last change which went into pycanberra, do you know if the author is still working on it?03:38
bochecha_I have had a pull request opened for a few months without any comment now :(03:38
jbichabochecha_: ah it took me a bit to find the project since it's not in Ubuntu directly (but included inside gnome-clocks)03:42
bochecha_jbicha: gnome-clocks moved to vala, so they don't use it any more03:42
bochecha_but I'm using it in another project (ibus-cangjie)03:42
bochecha_and I need it to be ported to Python 3, for which I submitted a pull request 3 months ago03:43
bochecha_I was just wondering if you had commit access there to review my pull request, or maybe you knew the author and whether he was still interested in it03:43

chrisccoulsonhi pitti, how are you?07:18
pittioh indeed, do we get an ubuflu plugin for hangout?07:18
pittiand a beer plugin!07:18
chrisccoulsonheh07:18
pittichrisccoulson: quite fine, thanks! much better now, I just found a solution to a bug I chased all of yesterday07:18
chrisccoulsonthat's good :)07:19
chrisccoulsoni just seem to get to the bottom of one bug, and then immediately hit another (chromium on arm) ;)07:19
didrockspoor chrisccoulson :/07:29
chrisccoulsonhi didrocks07:30
didrockshey chrisccoulson, seems for once, I didn't say good morning here btw ;)07:30
didrocksso good morning!07:30
chrisccoulsonis that a reference to me being unwell, or having to debug chromium issues ;)07:30
pittibonjour didrocks07:30
didrockschrisccoulson: both :p07:30
chrisccoulsongood morning :)07:30
didrocksguten morgen pitti07:30
chrisccoulsonright, rebuilding chromium *again*08:16
chrisccoulsonhopefully this build is a bit more useful :)08:16
dpmgood morning all. chrisccoulson, nice picture of you and seb128 "working" on http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/ :)08:21
didrockshey dpm!08:27
didrocksdpm: FYI, the sdk is in raring now :)08:27
dpmmorning didrocks yeah, I saw that :)08:27
dpmnice work08:27
dpmdidrocks, do you think you could answer mdeslaur's question on ubuntu-phone? I don't really know what's going on there -> https://lists.launchpad.net/ubuntu-phone/msg00502.html08:28
didrocksdpm: hum, I'm not subscribed to the ML08:29
didrocksdpm: to me, it seems that he has a mix between the ppa and raring08:30
didrocksthe dep is          qtdeclarative5-qtmultimedia-plugin,08:30
didrocksin raring08:30
didrocksMirv: ^08:30
didrocksdpm: people should really remove the ppa :)08:30
Mirvdpm: I answered march in private, but didn't notice it was from the list as Pat forwarded it to me. I'll answer to the list as well08:32
jibelgood morning08:33
dpmMirv, yeah, answering that one in public might be more appropriate, as I could imagine more folks having the same problem08:33
didrockssalut jibel, ça va?08:33
jibelSalut didrocks , ça va et toi ?08:33
didrocksjibel: ça va bien :)08:34
dpmdidrocks, Mirv, we should probably coordinate any of these packaging changes with updating the installation instructions on d.u.c/gomobile better in the future. What are the installation instructions for raring now, simply not to install any of the two PPAs and then "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-sdk"?08:35
Mirvdpm: read the post, gomobile is fine as is08:35
dpmMirv, which post?08:36
Mirvdpm: the one I just copied over to the public list from the private mail to Marc08:36
Mirvdpm: the PPA instructions wouldn't be exactly needed anymore for raring, but they AFAIK don't hurt either - notepad-qml can be still installed from the ubuntu-sdk-team ppa, and otherwise the archive versions have higher version numbers08:37
didrocksdpm: yeah, no ppa required :)08:37
Mirvdpm: but you can consider adding some note about raring. see also my up-to-date information always at https://launchpad.net/~canonical-qt5-edgers/+archive/qt5-proper08:37
didrocksMirv: we should remove this ppa now for raring08:38
didrocksMirv: and have daily release08:38
Mirvdidrocks: it's already done08:38
didrocksah great ;)08:38
Mirvdidrocks: ah, from instructions, right08:38
Mirvdidrocks: I mean, I've cleaned the PPA:s08:38
didrocksbut daily release FTW08:38
* didrocks makes a note for UDS08:39
Mirvyes08:39
Mirvas soon as my ubuntu-ui-toolkit merge is accepted, hopefully next week08:39
dpmMirv, thanks, I've just read your e-mail. So in a nutshell, things should get fixed automatically (probably at some point today), right?08:39
Mirvdpm: yes08:40
dpmMirv, didrocks, I'm not too clear what's happening to the raring PPA for the toolkit, though, and what we should do with the raring instructions. Could you please expand a bit more on that, and I'll update the installation instructions if needed?08:41
Mirvdpm: did you read the qt5-proper description page?08:41
thumperhi didrocks08:42
thumperdidrocks: just to let you know the latest desktop packages makes my laptop happy again08:42
dpmMirv, yes, but I was asking about the UI toolkit PPA08:43
thumperalso, I now have an interesting problem with postgresql08:43
Mirvdpm: ok, I added a note "The ubuntu-sdk-team PPA is not strictly required anymore, but notepad-qml currently resides there." now, does it answer the question?08:43
Mirvdpm: the ubuntu-sdk in raring does not install the qt-components-ubuntu from the PPA anymore, but notepad-qml is something that is only in the PPA at the moment08:43
thumperI've upgraded to raring and now postgresql doesn't want to start, saying DETAIL:  Failed system call was shmget(key=5432001, size=41263104, 03600).08:44
dpmMirv, gotcha. So what's the plan with migrating notepad-qml to the archive? Or are we not doing that anymore, now that the notepad app's code is public?08:44
thumpernow /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax is the same on my raring box as the precise box08:45
thumperand the postgresql.conf file says 32Meg of shared mem08:45
Mirvdpm: I think the app uploads are planned at some point, but the packaging of that or any of the apps has seen no review so far08:45
thumperso why is it asking for 41263104?08:46
Mirvdpm: when we get the toolkit daily process working, we can build on top of that08:46
thumperraring has 9.1+140, precise has 9.1+129ubuntu108:46
didrocksthumper: excellent news! :)08:48
thumperdidrocks: do you know who handles postgresql packaging?08:49
didrocksthumper: pitti is doing it in debian and ubuntu ^08:49
thumperhi pitti08:49
pittihello thumper08:49
thumperpitti: postgresql doesn't want to start on raring now I have upgraded08:49
thumpersee the message above from 5 min ago08:50
pittithumper: oh, that looks like you have too little shared memory for what you configured psql to use?08:50
thumperpitti: it is all default08:50
thumperpsql says 32MB08:50
thumperbut it seems to be asking for a lot more08:50
pittihttp://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/static/kernel-resources.html08:50
thumperpitti: I'd expect a default install of postgresql to at least start without tweaking kernel memory08:51
* thumper pokes08:52
pittithumper: I haven't seen that problem in a while, though; we got lots of dupes on bug 26433608:52
ubot2`Launchpad bug 264336 in postgresql-8.4 (Ubuntu) "pgsql fails to start due to shared buffer setting greater than kernel allows" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/26433608:52
pittithumper: yes, indeed08:52
pittithumper: and that does work here08:53
pittithumper: perhaps something else on your system is using shared memory already?08:53
pitti(I'm not really familiar how this works, if it's per-user or per-process or global)08:53
lifelessthumper: you don't have an ex-LP dev environment around :)08:53
thumperlifeless: not on this machine08:53
thumperpitti: the error from psql says Failed system call was shmget(key=5432001, size=41263104, 03600).08:54
thumpernow 41263104 is bigger than the default of 3355443208:54
thumpernot sure why it is asking for more than the specified 32MB though08:54
* thumper tweaks to 64MB system08:54
thumperpitti: so I doubled my value using $ sudo sysctl -w kernel.shmmax=6710886408:55
thumperand postgresql starts now08:55
thumperthis sysctl thing, do I have to set that every time I reboot?08:56
pittithumper: for me, /proc/sysvipc/shm says that postgresql is using 32399360 bytes08:57
pittithumper: no, you can tweak /etc/sysctl.d/30-postgresql-shm.conf08:57
pittithumper: same key btw, that seems to be a constant (port number and 0001)08:58
pittithat's with the default max_connections = 10008:59
pittiI'm on 64 bit, that might make some difference?08:59
pittialthough I'd expect 64 bit arch to use more memory, if it's different at all08:59
* thumper is on a 64bit machine09:02

ogra_ntpdate syncs the clock on every network connect anyway14:22
kenvandineogra_, does it for static interfaces?14:23
ogra_(it lives in /etc/network/if-up.d/ntpdate since several years)14:23
* kenvandine doesn't actually know if network-manager does anything for those14:23
ogra_kenvandine, for all but loopback14:23
kenvandineok14:23
ogra_no matter if  NM or /etc/network/interfaces, both run if-up.d scripts afaik14:23
kenvandinemakes sense14:24
seb128ogra_, so if you run your system for years without reconnecting your clock is free to drift?14:25
Sweetsharkseb128: disregard the 0.3.0 sync request -- we need 0.3.1 anyway for the next libreoffice upload once that is there ...14:25
ogra_yeah14:25
ogra_thats the one disadvantage14:25
seb128Sweetshark, ok, sorry, I was in a call when you pinged, didn't catch up yet14:25
ogra_but given that we have people like mdeslaur your kernel security updates will force you to reboot at some point14:25
seb128Sweetshark, you asked me to sync 03.1-1 no?14:25
ogra_;)14:25
mdeslaurseb128: have you ever noticed before? :P14:26
Sweetsharkseb128: If you would sync 0.3.1-1, that would be nice. I originally asked for 0.3.0-1, which wouldnt help ..14:26
kenvandineogra_, and for a desktop... how likely are you to not have your ethernet unplugged from time to time?14:26
kenvandinedifferent for the server of course14:27
seb128Sweetshark, <Sweetshark> seb128: could you sync libcmis 0.3.1-1 over our 0.3.0-1~ubuntu2 prerelease?14:27
ogra_servers should use ntpd14:27
seb128Sweetshark, you asked for 0.3.1-1?14:27
Sweetsharkseb128: Yes, I need 0.3.1-114:27
seb128ogra_, mdeslaur: do we sync on wifi connect? that seems to be broken on some of my boxes14:27
seb128Sweetshark, ok, so all good14:27
ogra_seb128, we sync for all interfaces but lo14:28
ogra_if it doesnt work on a wifi card for you, thats surely a bug14:28
seb128ogra_, ok, dunno why it doesn't work for me14:28
mdeslaurit does seem to work if I set it to manual, so I think it is hooked up somewhere14:29
seb128desrt, we will need to drop the gnome-settings-daemon patch "revert_git_datetime_dropping.patch", at this point the dbus interface used by indicator-datetime will stop being available so we need to update indicator-datetime too14:29
mdeslaurah, yes, that patch disables ntpdate14:35
mdeslaurso if ntp is installed, it uses that, else it disables/enables ntpdate14:35
desrt*ntpd14:36
desrtseems that the systemd approach has no ntpdate method14:36
desrtit just starts/stops ntpd14:37
desrtor something called chronyd14:39
* desrt wonders what this is14:39
desrtseems to use that if ntp is not available14:39
desrthttps://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Chrony14:40
desrtneat.14:40
desrti wonder if maybe there is good reason to switch to using this instead14:42
desrtwell, probably there is a lot of good reason.  i wonder if there's a reason not to do it, though14:42
mdeslaurmemory footprint14:42
desrtntpd is slimmer?14:42
mdeslaurah, don't know, I just meant vs. ntpdate14:43
desrtchronyd seems to use ~260kB14:46
desrton the power front, its main loop seems to wake up once every 60 seconds14:47
desrteach wakeup is a bit of network activity14:48
mdeslaurdoes chrony support authenticated ntp?14:51
desrtchronyd will probably use more power than ntpd -- it seems to be a bit more hyperactive about its job14:51
desrtmdeslaur: yes14:51
desrtat least i saw something about keys in the config file14:51
desrtor maybe not14:52
desrtthat's an admin password14:52
desrt* advanced NTP features like Autokey authentication are not supported14:52
desrthere is the rationale behind fedora's change: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/ChronyDefaultNTP14:53
desrtthey did some rather detailed testing14:54
desrtinteresting.  ntp uses more power.14:55
desrtof course, ntpdate is best of all :p14:55
mdeslaurhrm, autokey auth is a desired feature though, we've had a lot of requests for that14:55
desrti wonder if we could kick upstream a little14:56
mdeslaurnot a dealbreaker for now14:57

seb128stgraber, not behind the basic "it seems to work" feedback I had the other day, I can do extra testing tomorrow and give you an update then if you want to wait an extra day16:33
* Laney is doing some testing now16:35
stgraberI'm happy to wait an extra day.16:36
Laneystgraber: you'd still have it as an opt-in session?16:37
stgraberLaney: no, my plan is to land it as the default session in the archive. Basically having a /etc/upstart-xsessions file listing the xsessions that work under upstart user session, with just "ubuntu" listed in there initially16:38
Laneyah, so sessions not listed in there would continue to be managed outside of upstart16:39
desrtseb128: the way we enable/disable ntp is some kind of hilarious nightmare16:48
ogra_desrt, just rip it out, stop discussing16:53
desrtogra_: we have to replace it with something16:54
ogra_??16:54
ogra_we use ntpdate by default since years16:54
desrtogra_: the UI has a switch "enable NTP"16:54
ogra_that UI thing was always obsoloete16:54
desrthuh?16:54
ogra_desrt, right, remove it16:54
desrtnot afaik?16:54
ogra_desrt, /etc/network/if-up.d/ntpdate is riun for every device except lo16:55
desrtogra_: sometimes16:55
ogra_you dont need any UI option at all16:55
desrtogra_: what if you don't want NTP?16:55
ogra_desrt, if thats true, thats a bug16:55
desrtogra_: if you flick the switch, that script gets renamed to "ntpdate.disabled"16:56
ogra_desrt, you dont have much choice (since about 4 years)16:56
desrtogra_: i'm reading the code now that calls "mv" on this file16:56
mdeslaur ogra_: the check _did_ in fact disable ntpdate16:56
jasoncwarner_hey bryce seb128 and didrocks, can we delay meeting by about 10 minutes?16:56
ogra_mdeslaur, oh16:56
didrocksjasoncwarner_: sure16:56
ogra_didnt it insist to actually install ntpd in the past ?16:57
desrtno...16:57
desrtalthough if ntpd is installed it will also deal with that16:57
ogra_i'm sure i have at least two machines where it forcefully installed ntpd16:57
ogra_though that was in gnome216:57
mdeslaurit should gracefully handle ntpdate, which is the default, and people who have installed ntpd16:58
desrtit does this16:58

GunnarHjLaney: Hoping to be able to start autosync soon.17:44
desrtseb128: no.  stupid mistake on my part17:44
desrtseb128: installing chrony resulted in ntp uninstalling, but because of the weird handling of /etc files, dpkg -L made it look like i still had the package installed17:45
desrtsince there was still a bunch of files -- just not /usr/sbin/ntpd17:45
seb128desrt, I see17:45
QuintasanLaney: Can you change GTK_IM_MODULE=Maliit to GTK_IM_MODULE=meego-im in debian/xinput/maliit in maliit-framework and upload? According to upstream it will not work17:45
seb128desrt, what's the point of/motivation behind chrony?17:45
Laneyseems to work for me17:46
desrtseb128: ntpd kinda assumes a constant connection to the network17:46
LaneyQuintasan: but yeah, sure — tomorrow though17:46
desrtseb128: and also that waking up every second is a reasonable thing to do17:46
desrtie: it's for servers17:46
QuintasanLaney: Wait, if it works for you then I will make sure upstream is REALLY sure it will not work17:46
desrtchrony uses less battery and is better suited to machines that have a network connection that comes and goes17:46
desrtalso uses less memory (~1.5MB compared to 6)17:46
LaneyI was getting the OSK, yeah17:47
LaneyI might have borked my system in some special way though17:47
desrtit misses some ntpd features though like support for timeserver authentication and various hardware-based time devices17:47
Laneyif that other thing works and upstream recommends it thenw we might as well goferit17:47
seb128desrt, why is it needed at all (compared to our approch of ntpdating on connect)?17:47
desrtseb128: it's not.  just investigating alternatives.17:47

desrtand also to reliably report if ntpd is enabled (using more or less the same mechanism as g-s-d used to have)17:49
desrtand also enable/disable it17:49
jibelchrisccoulson, thanks, but it's blocking on me :/ I planned to finish this before my holidays which is end of this week.17:49
jbichadesrt: nice, I tried installing systemd-services but it didn't seem to be enough for timedated or hostnamed17:50
seb128desrt, did you read slangasek's concern that having a service "faking" systemd might trick into programs to think that dbus is available since it's on the bus?17:50
desrtseb128: yes.  already found one case of that, in fact17:50
desrtgnome-settings-daemon is asking about the 'virtualisation' propery17:50
seb128desrt, I wonder if we should rather patch datetimed to do something else if systemd is not on the bus17:51
desrtseb128: i considered this17:51
desrtbut the 'something' is pretty gross in our case17:51
desrti also think that maybe we should make this a general-purpose shim17:51
desrtie: i want to add support for the virtualisation property next17:51
seb128desrt, hum, I would assume that the something would be to do a similar check on an interface we provide in upstart or somewhere else in our stack17:52
desrtseb128: you'd think.....17:52
desrtseb128: this was my first thought17:52
desrtturns out upstart doesn't know anything about ntp17:53
desrtit's all based on calls to update-rc.d and renaming files in /etc/network/if-up.d/17:53
seb128well, it's an init system, I guess it doesn't know about specific jobs17:53
desrtwell17:53
desrtit knows about some things17:53
desrtbut it looks like ntpd was never upstartified17:53
desrtand the ntpdate-on-ifup hack we have is probably not even upstartable17:54
chrisccoulsonjibel, sure, no worries. just let me know if there's anything i can do :)17:54

seb128well, I might but I'm very busy, so it might take a while20:16
seb128having a merge request would increase your chances to get a review ;-)20:17
ricotzseb128, hmm, that is kind of the reason of the ppa, so don't let it go to waste by ignoring it :\20:17
seb128GNOME doesn't look at our package to see what patches we have if we don't submit them20:18
seb128Debian sometime do but mostly don't20:18
seb128usually it's good taste for "downstream/derivative" work to file merge requests/send patches to their upstream20:18
ricotzi guess i need to do some patch then20:19
seb128especially that you tend to not do a great job in documenting the changes in your changelog20:19
seb128so it requires detective work to understand the changesets20:19
seb128like why you commented patches20:19
seb128is that because they don't apply20:19
ricotzseb128, this is the gnome3-staging ppa so all changes are documented20:19
seb128or because you didn't want to update them20:19
seb128like your gtk update commented the "turn off a11y when exiting mainloop" change20:20
seb128no they are not20:20
seb128did you comment that gtk patch because it was hard to update? or because it's not needed?20:20
seb128the changelog doesn't say20:20
ricotzhmm, i see, sorry i don't recall20:20
seb128ricotz, no worry, it just makes hard to "grab from the ppa"20:21
ricotzanyhow this shows you had a look and should have stumbled over the broadway bug20:21
seb128well, I have a look and determine if the work to figure out what you did is higher than the work to do it again20:22
seb128in the gtk case they got the update in experimental so I used that as a start point instead20:22
