paultagwhich still has no name00:37
belkinsaA shame.00:38
belkinsaWill there be a contest for that, though?00:38
paultagit can't open for devel without a name00:38
paultagwhere's marks00:38
skellatbelkinsa: No contest.  SABDFL selects.00:38
belkinsaOh, right.00:38
skellatGranted, #ubuntu-release still says Tantric Tarantula at the moment00:38
paultagoff with the secretary? (SCNR)00:38
belkinsaskellat, that name is lame to my ears.00:39
Unit193Twitchy Tapeworm, or Twerking Tiger it is.00:39
paultagTwerking Tiger00:39
paultagyes00:39
paultagYES00:39
belkinsaYes00:39
skellatSince when did we acquire Hannah Montana Linux?00:39
skellat:-)00:39
belkinsalol00:39
Unit193Heh, for a second I went "Wrong chick" :P00:40
skellatHow are we looking for flavor downloads?00:41
paultaghahahaha00:42
* Unit193 licked all the flavors.00:42
skellatUrgh00:42
skellatI walked right into that one.00:43
paultaghahaha00:43
belkinsalol00:43
skellatSo, what are we all downloading?  Kubuntu?  Xubuntu?  Edubuntu?  mini.iso?00:43
belkinsaThough I would like to have a release name with Bearcat in it00:43
belkinsaUbuntu here00:43
paultagdput-ng (1.7) twerking; urgency=high00:43
Unit193Hah!  Oh dear. :P00:43
paultagtwerking titmouse00:44
paultagawesome00:44
Unit193paultag: Oh, did you know the debian-keyring in precise contains only expired keys? :D00:47
paultagoh great00:47
skellatThat needs an SRU stat00:47
Unit193debootstrap faaaailed.00:47
Unit193(Easy fix.)00:47
paultagOh yeah, no debootstrap for Debian on Ubuntu has been boned lately00:47
Unit193I like how Ubuntu keeps up with the geoip databases too!  :P00:48
skellatUnit193: Oh, the Montreal incident that kept the re-spins happening yesterday and made 13.10 impossible to install in Quebec for a while00:49
skellatSome bad in-fighting from the tzdata folks flowed downstream and nobody filtered out all the crud...some got through...00:49
Unit193Precise, the "LTS" Candidate: 20111220-100:50
skellatUnit193: Did South Sudan exist yet then?00:50
* Unit193 wouldn't know offhand.00:51
skellatgeoip issues were a big topic of discussion over in -release yesterday00:51
Unit193I ignore the package, I use a script.00:53
paultagI missed this flame01:16
paultagis canonical collecting geoip data now?01:16
paultag(not shocked if yes)01:16
Unit193paultag: geoip-database, it's never updated in Ubuntu.01:20
paultagAh.01:20
paultagMeh.01:20
Unit193I use ~/Public/geolite.sh -6 -c -i -a  works better and it's up to date.01:21
Unit193paultag: Oh, was reading some lists last night, you're in the sysd camp right?01:22
paultagyes01:22
paultagfsvo camp01:22
Unit193Bummer. :P01:22
paultagbut yes01:22
paultagit's a clear technical win01:22
paultaghaving looked into the subject a bit01:22
Unit193Well, it's where Debian is leaning, so guess I'm going to have to try and not dislike it so much. :/01:23
Unit193(Ubuntu would be dumb not to follow, but doesn't mean it'll follow.)01:24
paultagOh, with upstart?01:25
paultagI mean upstart is OK, but it's backwards from how the init should work01:25
paultagdependency based booting is more correct01:26
Unit193I'd prefer upstart, but if Debian goes with systemd it'd make sense for Ubuntu to follow.01:26
paultagwhy do you like upstart, Unit193?01:26
paultagso far as I can tell the only upside is that it's portable to BSD and HURD01:26
paultagwhich isn't an Ubuntu concern, nevermind a Unit193 concern01:27
Unit193It's better than what is there, and it isn't systemd.  It's more that I don't like systemd than that I do like upstart, and you're right, not really a concern. :)01:27
Unit193I'll poke at BSD and OpenIndiana here sometime.01:27
paultagmmm01:28
paultagIt's better than what is there, ← what does this mean01:28
paultagand why are you throwing systemd out based on it's name01:28
paultagwhat's the technical issue here? :)01:28
paultagI'm actually interested01:28
Unit193Oh, it's not the name.01:28
paultagI can't tell! :)01:28
Unit193I'm not as much, and I know you can overpower with your points. :P01:29
paultag01:29
paultagWell, I wasn't going to argue01:29
paultagI just want to know where people are coming from01:29
Unit193How it's going, and you can see it with logind and udev too.01:29
Unit193(Pet peeve is the default name for network devices. :P )  It seems like it tends to favor vendor lock in, if I read right the logind in Ubuntu is the last version you can use outside of systemd itself, no?01:30
paultagmeaning the systemd team is maintaining too much of the lowlevel stack?01:30
paultagyou can use any part of systemd outside of systemd01:31
Unit193No, more of sour grapes.01:31
paultagah01:31
paultagudev in Debian is built from systemd01:31
paultageven if you don't have systemd installed01:31
paultag(unrelated to your points)01:31
paultagJust as a fun tidbit01:31
Unit193Same here: Binary: systemd, systemd-sysv, systemd-services, libpam-systemd, libsystemd-login0, libsystemd-login-dev, libsystemd-daemon0, libsystemd-daemon-dev, libsystemd-journal0, libsystemd-journal-dev, libsystemd-id128-0, libsystemd-id128-dev, udev, libudev1, libudev-dev, udev-udeb, libudev1-udeb, libgudev-1.0-0, gir1.2-gudev-1.0, libgudev-1.0-dev, python-systemd01:31
paultagahha01:32
paultagbrb01:33
paultagbut Unit193 - systemd's not all bad01:33
Unit193I read a couple things on it, and it really didn't look like it was as "open" as would be nice, following Microsoft and Gnome into lock-in and forcing users wouldn't be good.  (Not saying they do the second.)01:33
paultagI like it, and I hate everything :)01:33
Unit193paultag: I'm sure it isn't.01:33
paultagBRB, need to jet01:33
Unit193We'll just have to see.01:33
Unit193Sure01:33
paultagone love ( ♥ , etc )01:33
Unit193(And on the wayland side, seems great except for one worry, I still run some old hardware and not sure if wayland would work well on it.  And yes I know xorg isn't going anywhere soon.)01:34
Unit193I suppose I could just try out Arch or Fedora and see how it is, at least for right now.01:42
paultagsystemd is easy to install in Debian01:46
paultagand it works with init scripts01:46
paultag(back)01:46
paultagyou just don't get much of the good stuff01:47
paultagbut it works01:47
paultagand it's niceee.01:47
paultagspec files rule, and I love the daemon supervise stuff01:47
Unit193Yeah, of course they both work with init scripts.01:53

ronnocHi all03:23
skellatHello03:28
ronnochi :)03:40
ronnocoops gone03:40
Unit193Howdy, ronnoc!03:51
gilbertsystemd no support freebsd :(04:21
gilbert:_(04:23
thafreakpaultag: i don't like systemd because it's confusing as hell13:48
thafreakand even more reason that I've avoided fedora13:48
thafreaki had to find a "rosetta stone" web page to help me figure out the systemd commands to do simple stuff13:48
thafreaki also don't like how it's rolling too much functionality into one thing13:49
thafreakit goes against the unix philosophy13:49
thafreaki get how some poeople lump init based services with inetd based services etc, because they're all services13:50
thafreakbut they should be separate13:50
thafreakso, please, if you have points why systemd is awesome, I'd love to hear them13:50
thafreakalso, why the hell are you guys talking about it anyway? Did ubuntu switch to systemd?13:50
thafreakI need to know so I can stop using ubuntu if that's the case ;)13:51
paultagit should13:54
paultagbut no, I want to see Debian on systemd13:54
paultagand it's not confusing.13:54
thafreakuh...it's definately not straight forward13:55
paultagit is13:55
paultagold init scripts work13:55
paultagthere's literally no more straight forward than no changes13:55
thafreakthere were changes...i had to look up how to do something with systemd when teaching the one sysadmin class13:58
thafreakcause they gave me fedora to work with13:58
paultagdude, what? :)13:58
thafreaki can't remember off hand what it was13:59
paultaganyway, brb, off to GOOG13:59
paultagmuch love13:59
thafreaksystemctl disable foo.service13:59
thafreakwhy13:59
thafreakwhy foo.service?13:59
thafreaksystemctl list-units --type=target14:00
thafreakto figure out what runlevel you're in14:00
thafreakthat makes so much sense right?14:01
thafreakyou wouldn't want the flag to have the word runlevel in there anywhere14:01
thafreaki give up, i'm not having fun anymore14:02
thafreaki quit sysadmin14:02
thafreaksystemctl disable thafreak.sysadmin14:03
jrgiffordwhoa16:08
jrgiffordmark is being weird16:08
thafreakshuttleworth?18:20
Unit193Isn't he always?18:23
jrgiffordmoreso than usual20:32
Unit193Oh?20:37
jrgiffordhave you noticed that over the last 5 cycles20:37
jrgiffordhe's gotten a little more edgy with every release blog post?20:37
Unit193Edgy Eft?  And no I haven't, I don't read it. :D  (I might have last time, but I've read under 6 posts by him)20:39
Unit193Hah, oh gee, "Mir is so great because everyone is attacking it." :P20:43
skellatjrgifford: SABDFL is a cosmonaut.  That makes him abnormal/unusual by anybody's definition...20:46
Unit193skellat: Doesn't give him a free pass, and that's what he used to be, he's not really anymore. ;)20:48
jrgiffordlol20:48
Unit193Hey, I can heckle at Mir all I want, I gave it a fair shot (and helped others do the same, right? :-----D )20:50
skellatAnd then there are these thoughts on the new codename: http://bit.ly/19Yxe8a20:53
jenni[ Codepope's pontifications: Musings on the new Ubuntu 14.04 LTS codename ] - http://bit.ly20:53
skellatTarantula would've been better20:53
Unit193I liked my name(s) better.20:54
