jamespagesmoser, I'd suggest an alternative approach to backporting mongodb11:26
jamespageits only a small delta to make it compat with what's already there11:26
jamespagesmoser, backporting boost is something we really don't want todo11:29
=== gfrog is now known as gfrog_afk
jamespagesmoser, this is the mongodb delta - http://paste.ubuntu.com/6524540/12:28
jamespageI think that is acceptable to carry12:29
jamespageI've started pushing delta branches to ~ubuntu-cloud-archive on launchpad so we can manage this easier12:29
jamespagezul, ^^12:29
jamespagecan you both review and +1 that for upload12:29
jamespagethanks12:29
zuljamespage:  +112:34
jamespagezul, btw I fixed openvswitch in trusty to work OK on 12.0412:35
jamespagezul, but the tests fail in the PPA12:35
zuljamespage:  i see12:35

zuljamespage:  im going to fix this nova build and then get to icehouse-1, can you please +1 the glance merge for me please?14:34
jamespagezul: +114:34
zuljamespage:  thanks14:35
zuljamespage:  that was easier than i thought: https://code.launchpad.net/~zulcss/nova/sphinx-build/+merge/19789014:48
zuljamespage:  im starting to do icehouse-114:53
jamespagezul, ack14:53
jamespagezul, +1 on that merge above14:53
zuljamespage:  thanks14:54
smoserjamespage, that mongodb is great if we can keep it that minimal.15:00
smoseri uploaded libboost and -dev and dh-shystemd to cloud-tools but will drop them.15:00
smoserdo you have a plan for handling this delta?15:00
jamespageyes15:01
smoserand you coul just drop the dh-systemd with no fallout ?15:02
jamespagesmoser, yes15:02
smoserso for now can i / should i just upload your mongodb to cloud-tools also ?15:04
jamespagesmoser, that should work yes15:04
jamespageI'm uploading to icehouse-staging as we speak15:04
smosergracias15:04
jamespageso I may as well go get a coffee15:04
jamespagethe branch is up-to-date15:04
smoserbranch ?15:04
jamespagesmoser, lp:~ubuntu-cloud-archive/ubuntu/precise/mongodb/precise-icehouse15:05
jamespageI propose that we manage delta using full packaging branches - which allows us to treat them like merges from debian15:06
jamespagezul, ^^ - that approach will stop us loosing delta15:06
smoserso i should od one of ubuntu/precise/mongodb/precise-cloudtools ?  you think ?15:06
zul+1 from me15:07
jamespagesmoser, yes - I should think so15:09
smoserbah.15:14
smoserdebuild -S on mongodb wants scons and boost-dev15:14
gQuigswhat version of openvswitch should be used with the lts-saucy kernel on 12.04?15:24
jamespagegQuigs, you can either use the openvswitch from the havana cloud archive15:28
jamespageOR15:28
jamespageyou can wait for the openvswitch-datapath-dkms-lts-saucy package to appear - but not just yet15:28
jamespageit will be 1.10 release15:28
gQuigsjamespage: thanks!15:32
jamespagegQuigs, the lts-saucy package is just the dkms module - we don't backport the userspace tooling15:33
jamespageyou need to use the cloud-archive for that15:33
gQuigsjamespage: I didn't see a lts-saucy dkms driver, should I use raring?15:36
jamespage" you can wait for the openvswitch-datapath-dkms-lts-saucy package to appear - but not just yet"15:36
gQuigs(raring's dkms driver)15:36
zuljamespage:  just as a heads up i had to use OSLO_PACKAGE_VERSION in the nova debian/rules because we rename the tarball and then we are fighting python-pbr (for rc1)15:36
zuler...icehouse-115:37
jamespageok15:37
zuljamespage:  just doing a local build first15:37
gQuigsjamespage: oh are you saying that I shouldn't use the lts-saucy kernel with openvswitch until the dkms package appears?15:40
jamespageyes15:40
gQuigsjamespage: (for customer) trying to see if a bug is fixed in the 3.11 kernel..  any other way?15:41
gQuigsspecifically just for testing...15:42
jamespagegQuigs, use the openvswitch from the havana cloud archive15:43
jamespageit does work with 3.11 kernel15:43
jamespagehttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam/CloudArchive15:43
gQuigsjamespage: oh, so no dkms driver is needed with that...15:43
jamespagegQuigs, that version includes the dkms driver - but the native kernel module does have GRE support in 3.1115:44
gQuigsjamespage: awesome, thanks!15:44
zuljamespage:  i love regressions15:53
smoserjamespage, i'm sure i'm being especially stupid16:00
jamespagesmoser, ?16:00

jamespagesmoser,  try bzr bd -S -- -nc16:02
jamespage-nc is not nice but works16:02
jamespageI'll fix that up in Debian (along with not being able to disable tests right now)16:02
smoseri guess 'bzr bd -S -- -nc' preceeded by 'rm -Rf * .pc && bzr revert' is probably pretty clean16:04

jamespagezul, do you need some help? there are quite a few things for icehouse1?16:20
zuljamespage:  nah im good16:20
jamespagezul, its not actually released yet is it?16:20
zuljamespage:  some of them are16:20
zuljamespage: nova neutron ceilometer glance keystone are16:21
jamespagezul, I'll plug away at CA deps then16:21
jamespagefyi python-webtest is uninstallable at the moment but that's at the bottom of the list16:22
zuljamespage:  cool thanks...how is openvswitch going?16:22
zuljamespage:  ack..16:22
jamespagezul, well the suggestion was that I try building it on a server with the hardy kernel used by the PPA's16:22
jamespageand I'd not wasting time doing that16:22
zuljamespage:  heh16:22
jamespageit can stay broke for the moment - 1.10.0 is enought for now16:23
zulack16:23
jamespagezul, doing libvirt next - need to stick in a delta16:23

jamespageyeah16:30
jamespagezul, two minor comments16:32
zuljamespage:  pushed16:34
zuljamespage:  i mean corrected16:34

jamespageI'll try fix that up16:49
jamespagezul, nova is still failing to build in the lab for some reason16:50
zulyeah seems to be blocking python-pecan16:50

jamespageroaksoax, authbind17:14
roaksoaxjamespage: so that's standard then?17:14
jamespageroaksoax, did you mean that the other way around?17:14
roaksoaxjamespage: have you used it in any package?17:14
jamespageroaksoax, I think tomcat7 uses it17:15
roaksoaxjamespage: nah, maas is using authbind now for cluster celery to bind to a port (it not being root), just trying to figure out the way to do it right17:15

rbasaksmoser: on bug 1257082, the Debian upstream bug is against ntp, not isc-dhcp. I'll change that, shall I?18:56
uvirtbotLaunchpad bug 1257082 in ntp "MAAS does not use NTP servers specified in DHCPD options" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/125708218:56
rbasaksmoser: AFAICT, isc-dhcp is doing exactly the right thing.18:56
smosersure. change it that sfine.18:56
smoserand, yeah, i agree.18:56
geniiI think isc-dhcp is pretty much abandoned. The last changes in the dhclient-script for instance are 2005, plus the -n switch doesn't work and no one seems inclined to fix it.18:58
rbasakgenii: perhaps it's just that it's working well enough that it doesn't need any significant attention? For your -n switch problem, is there a bug with a patch in it?18:59
rbasakgenii: it's a pretty critical package so I'd be surprised if it's really abandoned.18:59
rbasakPeople ask me about some of my projects often. They're not abandoned; they're feature complete with no significant bugs!19:00
geniirbasak: Actually, the dhclient-script had numerous bugs in it, a colleague of mine went over it last week and fixed them in our local copy. That one was easier since just a shell script. We're working on looking at the dhclient binary now to see about fixing the -n issue and some others.19:02
rbasakgenii: thank you for your work. Please send them to Debian!19:03
geniiHehe19:03
PryathI'm using an Amazon AWSEC2 ubuntu server 13.10 64bit system. When upgrading I get this message "A new version of /boot/grub/menu.lst is available, but the version installed currently has been locally modified. What would you like to do about menu.lst?"19:05
Pryathshould I keep the local version or install the package mainter's version?19:05
rbasakPryath: I believe accepting the package maintainer's version is fine. I think it's an issue that something on the system modified it (not you), and so it shouldn't need to prompt you. However, I'm not absolutely sure, so if your server is mission critical then you shouldn't proceed on my account.19:13
rbasakPryath: and you had backups of everything available before you started the upgrade, right?19:13
Pryathrbasak: it's a new instance of amazon AWSec219:15
Pryathso there's nothing to backup, thank you for the advice19:16

rannhey all, just a heads up, not sure where to file, but we're seeing consistent kernel panics at boot on linux-image-3.2.0-57 (virtual machines on top of VMware ESXi 4.1). (re)booting with -56 works. A quick search on the bugtracker and google shows no known issues.23:01
