jdstrand[TOPIC] Announcements18:00
jdstrandThanks to Stefan Bader (smb) provided updates for precise-saucy for xen . Your work is very much appreciated and will keep Ubuntu users secure. Great job! :)18:01
mdeslaursmb rocks \m/ \m/18:01
jdstrand[TOPIC] Review of any previous action items18:01
jdstrand[ACTION] chrisccoulson to benchmark oxide and qtwebkit18:01
jdstrandI know the benchmarks are done18:01
jdstrandI didn't see the email, but could have missed it18:02
jdstrandI think chrisccoulson may have stepped away since this is well past the sceduled time of the meeting, so I'll just add a new action18:03
jdstrand[ACTION] chrisccoulson to send benchmarks email to list18:03
jdstrand[TOPIC] Weekly stand-up report18:03
jdstrandI'll go first18:03
jdstrandI'm in the happy place this week18:03
jdstrandI've got quite a few updates assigned to me that I'll be working on18:03
jdstrandand I've gotten a lot of miscellaneous stuff piled up to catch up on judging by my inbox18:04
jdstrandtwo of those is updating the infographic confinement spec (it is changing again)18:05
jdstrandand updating the scopes spec and following up with the scopes team18:05
jdstrandmdeslaur: you're up18:05
mdeslaurI'm on triage this week18:05
mdeslaurI have some ca-certificates updates that I need to double-check, and then I'll get the copied to -proposed for a couple of weeks18:06
mdeslaurafter that, I'm working on the CVE list which has gotten bigger since last week18:06
mdeslaurI may also poke at debcompare some more...it's pretty good now18:06
mdeslauroh, btw, I've converted uvt to python3, so if it breaks, let me know18:07
mdeslaurthat's it from me18:07
mdeslaursbeattie: you're up18:07
sbeattieI'm on apparmor again this week.18:07
sbeattieI'm working on a bit of fallout from landing the python tools to help sarnold with landing the updated package in ubuntu18:08
sbeattieAs well as the usual kernel testing bits for jjohansen's work18:09
sbeattieI also need to update the apparmor daily recipe ppa, as it's failing due to the python stuff landing upstream18:09
sbeattieI think that's it from me.18:10
sbeattietyhicks: you're up18:10
tyhicksI'm currently looking into some kernel keyring oddities in Trusty18:10
tyhicksit was noticed after the ecryptfs test suite started failing18:11
=== pcwhite is now known as PaulW2U
mdeslaurhrm18:11
tyhicksI've got a workaround in the test suite but now I'm working with dhowells (kernel keyring upstream) to figure out what is going on18:11
tyhicksafter that, I'll go back to getting a v2 of the dbus-daemon patches attached the upstream AA mediation bug18:12
tyhicksI'm almost done with addressing all of Simon's feedback18:12
tyhicksthere's a lot of changes, but I've been testing as I go so there's not too much left18:12
jdstrandtyhicks: I didn't follow along last week. I saw that the kdbus guys were like "it's fine for you to propose this for dbus-daemon, but it ain't gonna work for us", but didn't see dbus-daemon's comments18:13
tyhicksif I can get all of that done, I want to circle back around and make sure we've got all of our kernel test failures on ppc straightened out18:13
jdstrandtyhicks: so dbus-daemon upstream is generally ok with it? just need some touchups?18:13
tyhicksjdstrand: yes, they seem to be ok with it18:13
tyhicksjdstrand: all of the comments are in the bug18:13
jdstrandok18:14
jdstrandtyhicks: re kdbus-- we still are going to propose our small patch, correct?18:14
mdeslaurshould we?18:14
tyhicksjdstrand: it is something that we need to discuss - they are still very opposed to it18:14
jdstrandright, so lets not discuss that here18:14
tyhicksthat's it for me18:15
jdstrandwe can take it to #ubuntu-hardened after the meeting18:15
* tyhicks nods18:15
tyhicksjjohansen: you're up18:15
jjohansenso I'm working on apparmor this week, I've got another round of test kernels building atm, and if it passes basic testing I will shove it up to the ppa18:16
jjohansenI've got revising to do around namespaces, especially a bug that breaks non-ns x transitions18:17
jjohansenand a couple of other bugs and testing to work out. We have a new method for detecting which kernel userspace combination we are in, so that we can drop the config patch for backports. Which was breaking containers, ...18:20
jjohansenthere is some coordination around apparmor 2.9 that will happen today in the upstream meeting18:20
jjohansenI think thats it sarnold your u18:20
jjohansens/u/up18:20
sarnoldI'm on community this week18:21
sarnoldI have some new apparmor packages for trusty that use a trunk snapshot that we're calling 2.8.95, since it's not quite ready to be called a 2.9, and as a result of the snapshot and testing I've got a teeny patch for apparmor to update the libapparmor1 version number to libapparmor2 in an auto*something file18:22
sarnoldthe new trusty packages are a mixed bag; on the one hand, the large accumulated patch set is now significantly smaller and we've dropped the old perl tools which none of us felt capable of supporting for five years18:22
sarnoldon the other hand, the new python tools are still a bit thin and need more testing.18:22
sarnoldi don't know how much we want to improve the python tools before proposing the new apparmor for landing18:23
sarnoldbut it feels like we need at least aa-disable to work correctly before asking for a landing18:23
sbeattiesarnold: I have a couple of small patches that make aa-disable work without aborting because of not understanding dbus rules18:24
jdstrandwe should have aa-enforce too then18:24
jdstrandI assume18:24
sarnoldI've also got a large stack of MIRs, some fairly important pacakges that many people are waiting on (nginx, juju, etc.) -- that alone could fill the week.. so here's hoping the release team won't mind me blocking progress too much..18:25
jdstranddo I understand correctly that we are only blocked on the python tools?18:25
sarnoldsbeattie: Yay! :D thanks!18:25
sarnoldjdstrand: moment, let me go re-find that email..18:25
sarnoldjdstrand: there's a handful of other qrt test failures not relaated to the python tools that also need investigation18:26
sarnoldjdstrand: it could be that some (most?) are due to a kernel that hasn't yet picked up all the apparmor patches, I think I heard jjohansen mention that lsat week18:26
jdstrandok, we need to get all that sorted so we can get this uploaded18:27
* jdstrand stating the obvious18:27
sbeattiesarnold, jdstrand: I'll take a look at the QRT failures.18:27
sarnoldyeah, I'm looking forward to retrying with sbeattie's latest fixes, that'll hopefully be half of QRT.. :)18:27
jdstrandthanks-- I'd help there, but have a lot of updates I need to get to18:28
sarnoldheh, yeah, I recall triage last week...18:28
sarnoldwhat a week18:28
jjohansensarnold: ? the kernel shouldn't really have anything to do with the userspace failures. It needs to support old and new kernels18:28
sarnoldI think that's me done, chrisccoulson if you're around you're up :)18:29
jdstrandif it was only the new stuff from last week...18:29
sarnoldjjohansen: ah, ok. darn.18:29
jdstrandok, I think chrisccoulson is away (which is fine)18:31
jdstrand[TOPIC] Highlighted packages18:31

ScottKSeems like we have a quorum.19:04
ScottKI'll chair I guess (penance for past sins).19:04
ScottK#startmeeting19:04
ScottK#startmeeting DMB19:05
ScottKOK, I guess no bot today.19:06
ScottKReview of previous action items19:06
ScottKAdd Daniel Pocock's upload rights (stgraber).19:06
ScottK 19:06
ScottKstgraber: ^^^?19:07
ScottKWe'll come back to that.19:08
ScottKNoskcaj: Are you around?19:08
Noskcajyep19:08
stgraberScottK: not done yet as I still don't have a list of packages to add to his PPU19:08
stgraberScottK: I e-mailed him a few days ago to try and figure this out though19:08
ScottKI've been a bit MIA, but I understand you applied for MOTU and it was supposed to be voted on by mail.19:08
ScottKThen you're also applying for Xubuntu package set today.19:09
ScottKNoskcaj: Is that right?19:09
Noskcajyeah, or january's 19UTC meeting19:09
Noskcajyep19:09
micahgI've been a bit MIA as well, which has compounded the issue19:09
ScottKSo let's discuss both as needed and see if we can get the voting done now.19:10
micahgwe do have 2 other candidates today as well19:10
ScottKTell us about yourself and why you're applying for Xubuntu.19:10
micahgcan we get to them all?19:10
ScottKDepends on how long this takes.19:10
ScottKHe was first on the agenda for Xubuntu.19:10
NoskcajI've been an ubuntu member for about a year now, and have done most of the packaging work for xubuntu these last two cycles. I am part of a number of packaging teams as well19:12
* ogra pulls out the pompoms 19:12
ScottKWho's been your primary sponsor for the Xubuntu work?19:12
NoskcajLogan and dholbach19:13
Noskcajhttp://ubuntu-dev.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/ubuntu-sponsorships.cgi?render=html&sponsor=&sponsor_search=name&sponsoree=Jackson+Doak&sponsoree_search=name19:13
ScottKI recall reading something about problems with a xchat-gnome upload.  What happened with that and what did you learn from it.19:14
NoskcajIf a package hasn't been gered for a long time, and has many changes, test it a lot beforehand19:15
Noskcaj*merged19:15
ScottKOK.  I'll also add that if you're doing a merge, you really need to understand the difference from Debian and why it's there.19:16
Noskcajyep19:17
ScottKWho in the Xubuntu team do you coordinate your work with (I know they are short of developers)?19:17
ScottKNoskcaj: ^^^19:18
Noskcajmicahg, when he's around, as well as the people that make xfce and shimmer19:18
ScottK"... people that make ..." you mean upstream developers?19:19
micahgNoskcaj: what about the fact that one of the specific issues that was mentioned in the bug was previous mentioned to you by an Ubuntu dev and you said it was fine (when in reality it wasn't for everyone)?19:19
micahgxchat-gnome issue: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xchat-gnome/+bug/127245519:19
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1272455 in xchat-gnome (Ubuntu) "multiple issues with git20131003" [High,Confirmed]19:19
NoskcajScottK, yep, although some of the stuff is tailored for xubuntu19:20
Noskcajmicahg, I installed it locally and couldn't see the problem, i'd have used a VM, but i cannot run one. I should have asked someone else to test it19:20
ScottKNoskcaj: Anything else you'd like to say before we vote?19:21
Noskcajplease vote yes?19:22
ScottKAny more questions?19:22
ScottKFirst vote is Noskcaj for MOTU.19:23
ScottKLaney voted +1 via email.19:23
ScottKmicahg, tumbleweed , stgraber ^^^19:24
ScottKbarry is also +1 via email.19:24
micahg-1, I think that you're doing good work, but I'm a little weary as there have been issues in the past with breaking various things19:25
Noskcaj:(19:25
micahgFTR, I can see that vote changing over time19:25
stgraber-1, same as micahg, I'd prefer to have you work for a few more months through sponsors19:26
micahgthat's just how I feel now19:26
ScottKI vote +0.  I can see the improvement, but I don't think you're ready for broad, unsupervised access to that much of the archive.  I'm also concerned with the number of people who have sponsored you multiple times that didn't endorse your application.19:27
tumbleweedsorry, I'm not 100% here19:27
tumbleweedbut I can vote19:28
tumbleweed+019:28
ScottKThanks.19:28
tumbleweedfor much the same reasons as above19:28
ScottKThat's it.19:28
NoskcajScottK, That last bit is because i had had a number of sync bugs that i could not test build19:28
ScottKNoskcaj: Unfortunately, that's not enough +1 to succeed.  Please keep on working on improving and get more broadly endorsed.19:28
NoskcajI now use a ppa to build them, and i forgot to get logan to leave a testimonial19:29
ScottKPlease keep working through sponsors and come back in a few months.19:29
ScottKNow Xubuntu Dev.19:29
ScottKEveryone please vote.19:29
ScottKbarry was +1 in email19:29
ScottKLaney was +1 in email19:30
ScottKmicahg, tumbleweed , stgraber ^^^19:30
micahg-1 same reason (this does not preclude bzr commit access to xubuntu repos, which we'll deal with separately)19:30
stgraber+0 [same concerns as MOTU but since the scope is more limited, I won't -1 that one, besides, the Xubuntu team appears to really be short of uploaders]19:31
micahgsorry, which will be dealt with separately (by xubuntu dev team)19:31
tumbleweed+0 I'm leaning a little more to +1 than MOTU, but not quite enough19:32
ScottKI'm also +0.  I was leaning more towards +1 since it's more narrow and Xubuntu needs the help, but particularly since micahg is a Xubuntu Dev, I'm not comfortable saying +1 when he's still at -1.19:34
ScottKEnd voting.19:34
Noskcajwell that was a waste of two months19:34
ScottKNoskcaj: So I think you'll need to come back again on this too.19:34
ScottKNoskcaj: At least you have an answer now.  Please work with micahg and xubuntu-dev on bzr repo access and then come back.19:35
Noskcajok19:35
micahgI would like to publicly say that Jackson is being a great help to the Xubuntu dev team in trying to help prepare new releases, my vote was only with regard to unsponsored upload rights to the archive and should not be taken as a statement on the level of contribution19:35
ScottKIs Gunnar here?19:35
GunnarHjYes.19:35
ScottKGunnarHj: You're up.  Tell us a bit about yourself and why you want upload rights for ubuntu-doc19:35
GunnarHjI've been contributing mostly with i18n related stuff for a while now. Already upload rights for language-selector and accountsservice. More involved with docs lately, and we miss someone in the team with upload rights.19:37
ScottKAny questions anyone?19:38
GunnarHjUploads of ubuntu-docs are typically time critical.19:38
tumbleweedjust the basic stuff19:38
stgraberare you subscribed to ubuntu-devel-announce?19:38
GunnarHjstgraber: Yes.19:38
GunnarHjtumbleweed: "basic stuff"?19:39
tumbleweedwhat stgraber asked :)19:39
tumbleweedbut he got there first19:39
GunnarHjok19:39
ScottKLet's vote then.19:40
stgraberthe other usual questions are related to the release cycle and freezes, but given the package we're talking about, I don't think this is particularly relevant19:40
stgraberso ready to vote19:40
ScottKbarry +1 vial email.19:40
ScottKLaney +1 via email.19:40
stgraber+119:40
micahg+119:40
ScottK+119:40
tumbleweed+119:41
ScottKDone.  Congratulations.19:41
GunnarHjThanks guys!19:41
ScottKSergio, are you here?19:41
ogra*\o/*19:41
sergiusensScottK, yes19:41
* ogra swings his pompoms19:42
ScottKsergiusens: Please tell us a bit about yourself, what you're applying for, and why.19:42
rsalvetio/19:42
sergiusensfirst sorry for crowding the agenda, wasn't sure the e-mail tag was saving a slot19:42
sergiusensI'm applying to upload a specific set of packages19:42
stgraberGunnarHj: Archive Upload Rights for gunnarhj: archive 'primary', source package 'ubuntu-doc'19:42
sergiusensfor most of them we are upstream (with my team)19:42
sergiusensI work mostly on ubuntu touch (almost only except for the packages that affect desktop)19:43
sergiusensworked on the initial android enablement19:43
sergiusensand now doing go packaging as well19:43
sergiusensall my work is always reviewed19:44
sergiusensand in general we have additional layers of qa control with the landing asks prior to the ci train showing up19:44
stgraberso I'm personally fine with the list of PPU for one exception, livecd-rootfs19:44
ScottKsergiusens: I see qtmultimedia-opensource-src-touch is on your list.  That's a code copy of qtmultimedia-opensource-src, right?19:44
ScottKstgraber: That one concerns me too.19:45
sergiusensScottK, it is something useful only for ubuntu touch19:45
ograstgraber, why is that ?19:45
ograstgraber, i sponsored plenty of sergios things into it in the past19:45
sergiusensScottK, it's a mess of diverts19:45
rsalvetiqtmultimedia-opensource-src-touch is a copy of qtmultimedia-opensource-src but with support to gstreamer 1.0 instead19:45
ogranever had any issue19:45
ogra(usually sergios code is good to go on the first shot)19:46
ScottKsergiusens: I know, I was in the discussion that resulted in it being created.  My concern is that the two ought to be generally in sync, but that if you can only upload one and not the other it could be problematic.19:46
sergiusensScottK, I see19:46
sergiusensScottK, in general the plan is to kill it soon19:46
ScottKogra: livecd-rootfs can affect a lot more than just touch though.19:46
stgraberogra: I'm not saying I have any particular problem with the changes he did so far, they may be fine, but this is a senstive package and I'd much rather keep it uploaded by people who have a much better understanding of the cdimage infrastructure.19:46
sergiusensScottK, just wanted it in case any urgent packaging specific bug showed up19:46
ScottKsergiusens: How soon?19:46
ograScottK, i know :)19:47
sergiusensScottK, as soon as the media-hub and mediascanner make their way in19:47
ograScottK, but i trust sergiusens to be careful enough with it and to have to skills to not break it19:47
sergiusensI'm working on the packaging for media-hub today fwiw19:47
ogra(not more than stgraber or me broke it during our uploads at least)19:47
sergiusensif it is too much issues; can I just remove livecd-rootfs?19:48
stgrabersergiusens: yes you can19:48
sergiusensI can work that one out through sponsors19:48
sergiusensstgraber, changed19:49
* ogra would really appreciate to have one more upload capable person for livecd-rootfs in the hone world ... and i really think sergio is qualified ... but up to you 19:49
stgrabersergiusens: thanks19:49
ScottKsergiusens: I'd prefer to leave out qtmultimedia-opensource-src-touch  too.19:49
sergiusensScottK, ack19:50
sergiusensScottK, done19:50
ScottKsergiusens: Thanks.19:50
stgrabersergiusens: are you subscribed to ubuntu-devel-announce?19:51
sergiusensstgraber, I am now19:51
stgrabersergiusens: good19:51
stgrabersergiusens: what tool would you use before uploading to confirm your package won't impact flavours that may be in the middle of a milestone?19:52
ScottKsergiusens: Based on where we are in the development cycle, what type of package upload needs additional permission and which would you be able to upload without review?19:52
sergiusensstgraber, I'm really bad with tool names; but I'd got to the devscripts and find the one that has 'seeded in'19:52
stgrabersergiusens: seeded-in-ubuntu, right ;)19:53
sergiusensScottK, packages without a feature freeze exception19:53
ScottKsergiusens: How do you tell if it needs one?19:53
sergiusensScottK, given our nature though, I haven't had to deal with that often as someone creates a blanket one for us19:54
ScottKsergiusens: Sure, but that won't last forever.19:54
sergiusensScottK, to tell to be honest; I'd refer to the wiki19:54
tumbleweedto me, blanket FFes are a sign of broken process19:55
ScottKsergiusens: OK.  The answer is that if it's only bug fixes and no new features, it doesn't need an FFe.19:55
ogratumbleweed, well, touch is a rolling distro ... with a different process19:55
sergiusensScottK, right; and I read it this morning again (since I need to file one actually)19:56
ScottKSame process that, I gather, apparently makes updating Qt5 for half a cycle impossible.19:56
ScottKOK.19:56
ScottKAny more questions.19:56
micahgsergiusens: just quickly, have you had any issues working through Debian for the 4 packages you maintain there?19:57
sergiusensmicahg, not really; michael was kind enough and happy enough that I was packaging golang stuff19:58
ograand thats after all for the benefit of the whole distro :)19:58
sergiusensmicahg, he just insisted I used git and not bzr for packaging branches to be aligned with the team19:58
sergiusenswhich I did19:58
ScottKOK, I think CFV time then.19:58
ScottKVote for PPU for sergiusens for lxc-android-config, android, goget-ubuntu-touch, phablet-tools, autopilot, golang-gocheck, golang-pb, golang-go-flags, session-manager-touch, platform-api, android-tools, ofono, maliit-framework, ubuntu-keyboard19:59
micahgsergiusens: ok, I'm always glad to see people working in Debian and trying to push through packages that way19:59
