TJ-cjwatson: I'm trying to confirm that bug #1271141 is fixed but don't have easy access to the original system that had Win7 installed; do you know what the minimum requirement is for os-prober to believe it has found a Windows bootable file-system (so I can fake one) ?17:12
ubottubug 1271141 in grub2 (Ubuntu) "30_os-prober fails in make_timeout() when using GRUB_BUTTON_CMOS_ADDRESS" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/127114117:12
cjwatsonTJ-: the place to look would be /usr/lib/os-probes/mounted/20microsoft17:14
TJ-cjohnston: yeah, been there already. Can't find (so far) where WINOSDATA is defined and a batch of tests seem to depend on it being non-empty17:15

TJ-cjwatson:  yeah, been there already. Can't find (so far) where WINOSDATA is defined and a batch of tests seem to depend on it being non-empty17:15
cjwatsonTJ-: you can just pretend it's always empty; that's a hook for migration-assistant IIRC17:17
TJ-cjwatson: Ahhhh.... explains why I couldn't find it in os-prober or grub sources17:18
cjwatsonOr maybe ubiquity, I'm not sure.  It's not in the current source for anything relevant I can find, so maybe we can drop that patch soon17:19
cjwatsonApart from a similar test in ubiquity/compat/os-prober17:20
cjwatsonNot going to track down the history just now :)17:20
TJ-cjwatson: So it looks like it needs "/boot/bcd" with valid Win7 entries17:20
cjwatsonSounds plausible17:20
cjwatsonPlus appropriate filesystem type17:20
TJ-cjwatson: that's fine, I think I have enough to fake it now17:20
cjwatsonok, cool17:21
TJ-cjwatson: fwiw, fake only requires: "mkdir -p /mnt/tmp && mount /dev/sdXY /mnt/tmp && touch /mnt/tmp/bootmgr && mkdir -p /mnt/tmp/boot && echo 'W.i.n.d.o.w.s. .7' >/mnt/tmp/boot/bcd && umount /mnt/tmp"17:41
TJ-cjwatson: Do you know of a 'nice' way to co-install grub-pc and grub-efi so that both can be used? The scenario is a USB device being configured to boot on UEFI or BIOS systems, with a GPT18:04

NoskcajDoes dh_autoreconf support cmake yet?21:08
Noskcajif so, gccxml will need a rebuild21:09
juliankNoskcaj: You can use it with a custom command.21:09
juliankThere's only magic for autoreconf.21:09
juliankAs far as I know, cmake generated files are not shipped in a tarball, so there should not be any need.21:10
infinityNoskcaj: gccxml needs a *lot* more than autoreconf...22:10
infinityNoskcaj: It's a fork of an ancient GCC, so doesn't remotely support any arch added to GCC since that point.22:12
jtaylorhm does that matter?22:12
jtaylorits only working on the frontend22:13
jtaylorits problem is that it doesn't support c++1122:13
jtaylorwhich is a shame as it allows some neat stuff (e.g. the reflexion of root-system)22:13
xnoxjtaylor: my alternative was to use a fork of gccxml which is just a plugin, rather than embedded copy of gcc.22:47
jtaylorxnox: link?22:48
xnoxjtaylor: https://github.com/alexleach/gccxml_plugin that one works with gcc-4.822:48
jtaylorneat thanks22:48
xnoxjtaylor: it's highly compatible with old gccxml, but not fully.22:48
