ibeardsleemutter UbuntuOne being turned off03:09
olly"Canonical plans to make the code for Ubuntu One available as open source so others can build their own open-source services." reads as "now it's no use to us any more, you can have it"03:12
ibeardsleeprobably not in time for me to migrate to someone building a replacement with that code03:15
ollynice typo in the comments - "This is only one cloud service I use and I would like to used on my NSA."03:16
ibeardsleeheh03:16
ollyor perhaps it's a poor joke03:16
olly(I assumed they meant "NAS")03:16
ibeardsleeI'd assume that'd be right03:18
ibeardslee.. they mean NAS03:18
ollyhmm, so if canonical are giving up on the network storage space because it's so crowded, are they also going to drop out of the Linux distro and mobile OS spaces?03:26
mwhudsonno :)03:27
Golly, prob not worth the security headaches, I remember when file sharing links were predictable a guy I used to work with scripted walking the site detecting what people were sharing04:24
hadsI did mean to give Ubuntu One a look one day. Guess I left it too late.08:28
ollyhads: i love it when todo list entries go away just by being ignored for long enough08:46
hadsProbably as many items get ticked off my list that way than any other way.09:14
chiltsolly: no, haven't received anything from them09:20
ibeardsleemorning18:52
ibeardsleeI think it is a bit unfortunate that they are dropping the UbuntuOne, because it would have been the ideal thing to link in with their phones18:53
ibeardsleeubuntu phone comes with UbuntuOne storage and music etc18:53

ibeardsleeFriday .. a good day to do a version upgrade to the work saucy machine20:39
ajmitchupgrading to trusty?20:42
ibeardsleeyeap20:45
* olly wonders what else you'd upgrade a saucy machine to20:45
ibeardsleedown the track I will do a full reinstall from scratch20:45
ibeardsleejust want to run through the process once before the hordes at work will start considering it20:47
ajmitcholly: debian? :)20:51
ollyquite painful as an upgrade I suspect20:55
ibeardsleewell .. let's see if I am back online shortly20:56
mwhudsonoh yes i should probably do that too20:56
ollywe did a mass ubuntu to debian switch and settled on unpacking a debian install into /debian and then switching files around early in the next boot via a script in initramfs20:59
ollywhich worked very nicely, though it helped that these machines all had a standard setup21:00
ibeardsleeyeah ouch21:02
ibeardsleenot a clean upgrade21:02
ollyandrew mcmillan managed to do an upgrade from ubuntu to debian on his son's machine, but it was pretty hard work21:05
ibeardsleeunless i was extra special, I wouldn't recommend a saucy to trusty upgrade at the moment21:08
ajmitchibeardslee: considering that it's due for release Real Soon Now, it should have been upgradeable21:08
ajmitchwhat broke?21:08
ibeardsleea bunch of packages failed (I have a list), and on the reboot it wouldn't let me login and there were over 1000 packages still to be upgraded21:09
ibeardsleewouldn't let me login through the gui21:10
ajmitchouch21:10
ibeardsleehad to do an apt-get install -f to get around some problems21:10
ibeardsleedoing a apt-get dist-upgrade now to get the rest of the package upgrades21:10
ajmitchdid you use the upgrade tool initially?21:11
ibeardsleeyeap21:11
ibeardsleedo-release-upgrade -d21:11
ibeardslee1482 packages not originally upgraded21:18
=== thumper is now known as thumper-gym
ibeardsleeand it seems to be working now23:22
ibeardsleegah .. and don't upgrade if you use UbuntuOne23:29
