kgunndidrocks: can we make an attempt at libmirclient3 again ? we will need this for dpms14:00
didrockskgunn: we'll deliver first current Mir14:00
didrockskgunn: I ask Mirv to do it for tomorrow14:01
didrocksthen, we can merge your transition, but your team has to handle it14:01
kgunndidrocks: so, handle it means...we send anounce on ubuntu-devel, we ping you (or someone like you), we place it on the ask sheet14:03
kgunndidrocks:  is there anything else ?14:03
kgunnracarr: ^14:03
didrockskgunn: and you ask your team to promptly upload the driver parts14:03
didrocksas you break ABI, everything that deps on libmirclient has to be rebuilt14:03
kgunndidrocks: yes...xmir dependency14:03
didrocksand some parts are not under CI14:03
kgunnRAOF: ^14:03
didrocksso your team needs to upload that promptly to the ppa to not block everything14:03
didrockshence the "we need to coordinate"14:04

smspillazhow does one get the boost libs to appear in /usr/lib like the mir makefiles seem to expect15:49
smspillazthey're installed in the arch-prefixed directories15:49
smspillaz(symlinking doesnt count)15:49
kgunnMirv: hey was going to ask didrocks...but someone was noticing there is no saucy proposed (i haven't checked this)15:53
kgunnMirv: we were discussing the "ask" process...i indicated, trunk will still go to proposed15:53
kgunnbut won't be promoted to archive until its been approved via the ask process15:53
kgunnsil2100: ^ can you see what i was saying to Mirv .... he might be mising in action16:24
kgunnsil2100: there should be proposed with latest trunk from Mir right ?16:24
sil2100kgunn: I think he's long gone, since he's EOD since 3 hours already16:24
sil2100But looking16:24
sil2100hmmm, no, I don't think it's like that16:25
sil2100We're running releases of stacks manually now, so even daily-build doesn't have latest Mir16:25
sil2100We'll be trying to release new Mir around tomorrow16:25
kgunnsil2100: ug...so....to make sure i get it :) there will be a daily-build based on mir trunk latest16:31
kgunn?16:31
kgunnwhich will actually be going thru testing...(per what didrocks indicated)16:31
kgunnsil2100: just to let you know we are here in lexington at a mir sprint....so we're going to be pushing quite a bit of bug fixes thru16:32
sil2100kgunn: we'll probably have a detailed talk about Mir tomorrow in the UTC morning, but the deal is - we're spinning releases manually (not automatically every 4 hours)16:36
sil2100kgunn: so, essentially, there won't be a new Mir built in daily-build every 4 hours16:36
sil2100kgunn: but whenever asac and didrocks decide that we will be testing a new Mir for the image, we'll be spinning manually a release of Mir which will land into daily-build16:37
sil2100kgunn: go through our testing16:38
sil2100kgunn: and if all is green we will release it to -proposed16:38

kgunnsil2100: thank you...i realize you are the messenger so i won't shoot :)...but i am a little worried16:41
kgunnthis might cause us a bit of slow down...at least a little concerned we're not getting build/integration feedback16:42
kgunnsil2100: ...any chance someone could help launch a manual build for latest trunk eod our time in US ??16:42
kgunnwe have some key things we want in today16:42
smspillazis there some sort of EGL_MIR_PLATFORM #define ?16:43
smspillazso that I get the right typedefs16:43
sil2100kgunn: hmmm16:43
kgunnsil2100: even now...we're 5 days diff from what's in archive to whats in trunk16:43
sil2100kgunn: I personally doubt it, as asac is the person that needs to say 'OK!' when doing any building16:43
sil2100kgunn: since we want to release Mir tomorrow16:44
sil2100Not sure if he would give a green light for building things today ;p But maybe?16:44
kgunnsil2100: thanks i'll ask16:44
sil2100kgunn: it's best to poke asac as he's the guy in charge16:44
kgunnasac: ^ we're in the midst of mir sprint in lexington (we traded places)16:44
kgunnasac: i understand ur in manual build mode....any chance someone could kick us a manual build eod US time ?16:45
kgunn...we are hoping to have some key things lined up for merging/landing into archive today16:45
kgunnand i was just pointing out...we're 5 days old in archive vs trunk16:45
asackgunn: so we work on a unity update that cannot be done with an updated mir16:51
asackgunn: from what i understand, one thing that would be soo  much easier if you guys would commit to maintain an abi/api properly.16:51
kgunnasac: we are committed to that16:52
kgunnasac: already discussed with didrocks as well16:52
kgunnasac: and we do need to bump the api16:53
kgunnasac: afaik that means we will need to land the corresponding xmir changes with it16:53
asackgunn: its also libmirserver16:53
asacthat one seems to be even more of a mess16:53
kgunnasac: but....it will require a full rebuild of the stack16:53
asacyou say you will maintain that ?16:53
asackgunn: at the moment we have to rebuild the full stack before landing16:54
kgunnasac: yes16:54
asackgunn: with proper versioning we can do that step by step (e.g. first land mir, then update the rest of the stack in a second shot)16:54
kgunnasac: yes, i understand you have to rebuild the whole stack16:54
asacsil2100: so from what i understand we have a daily-release16:55
kgunnasac: yes...that's the plan, we have libmirserver3 in waiting, we are making sure this afternoon our changes on the xmir side correspond16:55
asacand a daily-release-next ppa16:55
asaccorrect?16:55
kgunnasac: other mir clients simply need to rebuild (they don't use the new method)16:55
asacsil2100: you think we could pipe kgunn into whatever we dont use right now?16:55
sil2100kgunn, asac: we can use the -next PPA I guess...16:56
kgunnasac: is there anyone in late U.S. time that could help here ? (realizing poor sil2100 wants to go to sleep sometime)16:56
asackgunn: kenvandine i guess16:56
kgunnasac: ah...thanks16:56
asackgunn: dont you have a ppa you used in the past?16:56
asacfor the mir preview images?16:57
asacetc.?16:57
asackgunn: and cyphermox as well16:57
asache knows the system pretty good16:57
kgunnasac: we're shooting for archive...we can test all we want off trunk, but what I do want is the integration test result from being on a current desktop/touch image16:57
kgunndoes that make sense ?16:58
asackgunn: i am not sure :)16:58
kgunnasac:  so olli_ is going to murder me if we aren't default xmir on desktop by thursday...16:58
asacok... that i understand :)16:59
sil2100;)16:59
asackgunn: everything on desktop you can just get in without being coordinated16:59
ogra_asac, the question is, will you prevent it16:59
ogra_:)16:59
asacif it doesnt touch touch, i dont care16:59
sil2100kgunn: I can propose a switch so that the new Mir stuff is going to land to the daily-build-next PPA, but you'll have to poke kenvandine or cyphermox to get the releases rolling anyway16:59
kgunnasac: mir is the same component for both17:00
sil2100kgunn: there's also the problem of needing a rebuild of unity8 and platform-api...17:00
kgunnsil2100: that's awesome....thanks... and we have greyback & Saviq for any unity8 issues17:00
kgunnRAOF: racarr ^ so i figure if we can square dpms away this afternoon...we can get a daily build going that we can put on all the systems here in lex17:01
kgunnasac: reading my own scrollback...just to make sure, mir is obviously a touch & desktop component...so when we make changes it needs to happen in both (esp in the case of libmirclient3...we were bumping for desktop, but obviously touch components will need to accomodate)17:15
kgunnracarr:  libmirclient relevant touch components are unity-mir & platform-api ? right?17:16
asackgunn: so unity mir fixes are scheduled tomororow. having you guys ramp up in the -next ppa is probably right17:21
asacyou guys can then test and work with cypher and ken on getting udpates intot he ppa so we can release tomorrow morning the next shot17:22
asackgunn: but my understanding is that if you pick up the libmirclient bump you also need new drivers etc.17:22
asacsil2100: is that on your radar?17:22
kgunnasac: right....only Xmir driver (which is RAOF 's and he is here) will be new...it uses the additional methods, but all other mir clients only need to be rebuilt17:25
kgunnas the mir clients (other than xmir)  don't use the new api17:25

olli_asac, we need quick iterations to land stuff in time fro 9/1918:08
kgunnsil2100: just to make sure i'm not crazy...is the autobuilding off for both desktop and touch ? or just touch ?18:09
olli_can't afford to block on someone manually approving it, e.g. during the night shifts the team might be pulling here18:09
olli_we need to have builds available when needed18:09
asacolli_: you have a ppa18:11
sil2100kgunn: define 'autobuilding' ;)18:11
asacolli_: you can stage stuff there now18:11
asacolli_: and kenvandine and cyphermox can help you getting updates in there18:11
=== dandrader|lunch is now known as dandrader
kgunnsil2100: "autobuilding" as opposed to the manual building that you're doing now18:35
sil2100kgunn: ah, for daily-release you mean? Since the touch images take packages which we release, so basically both desktop and touch are in manual building mode...18:36
kgunnsil2100: that's what i needed18:38
