[00:25] <Jordan_U> I've found another user who appears to be experiencing https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upstart/+bug/1077579 . I was hoping to be able to get hold of an upstart developer that could troubleshoot with them before they reboot (to get rid of the defunct process). Any idea where I could find such a person if they're currently available? (already asked in #upstart with no response yet).
[00:26] <ubot2`> Launchpad bug 1077579 in upstart (Ubuntu) "PID 1, upstart, failed to reap one of its children (banshee)" [Undecided,New]
[00:28] <Jordan_U> Reaping children is such a basic function of an init system that I would expect upstart's developers to be interested when it fails (or at least appears to).

[17:08] <yay> brand new to this and want to start fixing bugs - i know the problem i would like to fix, could anyone help me out?
[17:12] <squibbles> hey
[17:20] <squibbles> hey, im new here wanna have a go at fixing some bugs, was thinking this one https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1172172, seeing as it affects me anyway
[17:20] <ubot2> Launchpad bug 1172172 in unity (Ubuntu) "Some multitouch gestures not working on 13.04" [Undecided,Confirmed]
[17:20] <squibbles> could someone give me some pointers/advice on how to start get going
[19:58] <balachmar> I am having a problem installing 13.04 on my system. The upgrade failed, but the installer is giving me problems as well. It boots and then when you should be able to select the installation type it stays empty: https://owncloud.wligtenberg.nl/public.php?service=files&t=3de9d7b808a91cfc69d0b6e159216be2
[19:58] <balachmar>    And whenever I click on the change or (+/-) it crashes...
[19:59] <balachmar> I want to write a bug report, but I am unsure where to start
[19:59] <balachmar> My old system still boots, but was left in a rather unusable state. It cannot run apt-get because of some errors in the status files of dpkg
[22:07] <phillw> hi good people, I have a question which I cannot answer.. has the bug fix for bug 880493 actually landed in the updates for 13.04 ? (i.e. does the OP simply need to update his system)?
[22:07] <ubot2> Launchpad bug 880493 in synaptic (Ubuntu Raring) "Synaptic crashes in vfprintf() with Norwegian locale" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/880493
[22:14] <hggdh> phillw: does not seem so, the raring task is still open
[22:17] <phillw> hggdh: would it be in proposed?
[22:23] <phillw> hggdh: or am I better off asking the ubuntu-release team about it? (I have NO experience with translation bugs)
[23:03] <hggdh> phillw: no, the bug would be, at least, fix-released for the version to be in -proposed
[23:04] <phillw> hggdh: thanks, Colin Watson has answered and it is awaiting an SRU review.
[23:05] <hggdh> phillw: yes, I answered here, then *really* parsed your comments, and went over to -release :-)
[23:05] <phillw> but not tonight as he is going to bed :D
[23:05] <hggdh> heh
[23:06] <hggdh> well, it should already be quite late for him indeed
[23:06] <phillw> it is a shame that the sru team cannot see a pile of dupes and bug heat.
[23:07] <phillw> hggdh: he is on the same TZ as me... and yes, it has just gone midnight. This was my last one of the day, that started mid-afternoon.
[23:07] <hggdh> phillw: the team is rather small, and has a lot of things to do, so sometimes things get delayed. Even more with UDS starting tomorrow
[23:07] <phillw> I did mention that both in -release and to the OP :D
[23:07] <hggdh> :-)
[23:09] <phillw> hggdh: I guess, the thing that all people want to know with bugs is..... what is happening with my bug. when they see 'fix released' their natural question is "why haven't I got the fix". Possibly something for the bug team to look at after you get some sleep after vUDS :)
[23:10] <hggdh> phillw: this comes from the way bugs are dealt with -- the main task is usually reserved for the fix in the devel release
[23:11] <hggdh> so being fix-released for the main task means -- in this case -- synaptic is corrected on Saucy
[23:15] <phillw> it depends how far they bend the rules, saucy is not really ready as a stable system and the bug is a while old. One never knows.. it may squeak into raring proposed :D
[23:16] <phillw> hggdh: I'm sure that the OP who asked me for help, would run a saucy pre-alpha release to prove it... it does seem a little harsh, however.
[23:18] <hggdh> phillw: I do agree. But this will have to be checked on each SRU version, anyway
[23:22] <phillw> hggdh: the oddest thing? it has a load of dupes dating back to 2011-10-23 - sometimes, we just seem let bugs roll on from release to release like a grumbling appendix. I have one with ppc which also just needs a bit of TLC to try out the fix.
