[04:55] <pitti> rbasak: I didn't know about cache=unsafe; just reading about it
[04:56] <pitti> rbasak: ah, so with -snapshot this is implied, but not with using an explicit overlay; that overlay is still usually on tmpfs, but I guess it can't hurt to specify it explicitly
[04:56] <pitti> rbasak: is this already supported on precise/trusty?
[04:59] <pitti> rbasak: ah, precise's qemu doc already describes it
[05:06] <pitti> rbasak: but first, need to fix total qemu failure with most recent qemu from utopic..
[08:20] <pitti> rbasak: ok, autopkgtest fixed for qemu 2.1, and I committed the cache=unsafe; thanks for pointing out!
[10:10] <shrini_> team
[10:11] <shrini_> I am exploring this page
[10:11] <shrini_> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/ContributingTestcases/Autopilot
[10:11] <shrini_> adding the PPA is not working
[10:11] <shrini_> sudo apt-add-repository ppa:autopilot/ppa
[10:11] <shrini_> Cannot add PPA: 'ppa:autopilot/ppa'.
[10:11] <shrini_> Please check that the PPA name or format is correct.
[10:11] <shrini_> getting this error
[10:11] <shrini_> elfy: ^^^
[10:14] <elfy> shrini_: fails here too - so it's not just you :) try asking in #ubuntu-autopilot if no-one here sees and knows the answer, might be someone in there who knows
[10:15] <shrini_> elfy: okey. thanks
[10:15] <knome> i believe the autopilot PPA's are restructured
[10:15] <knome> try ppa:autopilot/1.5
[10:17] <knome> though that PPA doesn't seem to have the packages needed...
[10:18] <shrini_> 1.5 is being added
[10:22] <shrini_> myself and nithya are trying to add more manual testcases
[10:23] <shrini_> hope we are doing correctly
[10:24] <elfy> they look fine so far shrini_ - I commented on the inkscape one recently
[10:24] <shrini_> elfy: yes. Will add more testcases for inkscape soon
[10:24] <shrini_> thanks for the good works
[10:24] <elfy> :)
[10:25] <elfy> when you do - just change it locally then push the new stuff to the same place - no need to create a new one
[10:25] <shrini_> okey
[10:37] <rbasak> pitti: thanks! In last night's test I got an improvement from 2h40m to 1h40m for mysql this way.
[10:48] <pitti> rbasak: oh wow, you use an on-disk overlay dir?
[10:48] <pitti> rbasak: it defaults to /tmp/ (I have that on tmpfs), and in CI we use /dev/shm/
[10:57] <rbasak> pitti: well, it is the default. With cache=unsafe it shouldn't matter!
[10:58] <rbasak> This is on my laptop. I don't have unlimited memory!
[10:58] <pitti> rbasak: I suppose it'll still be quite a bit slower on disk, but that's indeeed a nice improvement
[10:58] <pitti> rbasak: yeah, I have 16 GB, I work in /tmp (tmpfs) all the time :)
[10:58] <pitti> I specifially bought so much to be able to run tons of VMs, containers, schroots, etc. in parallel
[10:58] <rbasak> I did that, but my laptop is a bit old now. It's maxed out at 8G
[10:59] <rbasak> I've never considered putting /tmp in tmpfs
[11:00] <pitti> I had that with 4 GB already
[11:00] <pitti> it's something which we honestly should do by befautl for > 1 GB
[11:00] <pitti> avoids a lot of HD spin up/down
[11:01] <pitti> but some programs still put large temp stuff in /tmp instead of /var/tmp, so that'll break with some cases (large firefox downloads for example)
[11:01] <pitti> chicken-egg problem
[12:55] <akaradag> hi, i am searching how ubuntu team test iso image automatically. I read some post and watched a video but it is for manuel
[12:56] <akaradag> Keeping ubuntu healthy: Manual Image Testing - http://www.theorangenotebook.com/2014/03/keeping-ubuntu-healthy-manual-image.html
[13:01] <meecoder> found a bug, been reported 3 times, not yet fixed: bug 1332836 on launchpad
[13:19] <akaradag> hello, i hope anyone help me
[13:19] <akaradag> how ubuntu test iso automatically
[13:20] <akaradag> i am searching a method for testing os installation
[13:25] <average_guy> I have reported this in the past also meecoder, i think is last thing to change b4 actual release.
[13:25] <average_guy> my feeling is, if i see something wrong, will keep reporting it until someone tells me to stop
[13:34] <average_guy> akaradag: you check out http://unity.ubuntu.com/autopilot/ ?  I don't know crap about crap but I see you been asking a while now
[14:34] <balloons> akaradag, howdy
[14:38] <balloons> akaradag,the autopilot tests for ubiquity can be found in lp:ubiquity
[14:39] <balloons> akaradag, on your bug, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu/+bug/1332836, this isn't normally updated until beta. So it has been triaged and will be fixed, but it's not likely to be fixed until beta
[14:40] <balloons> as average_guy said, it might even be a bit later than that, they like to hold off on updating until the new artwork and design is done, which isn't ready yet
[14:40] <knome> balloons, there's also a branch that allows slideshows to use a pre-defined variable from lsb_release
[14:41] <knome> balloons, it's not merged yet to main though..
[14:42] <balloons> knome, yea.. It's a little confusing to me why they do it this way, but . . .
[14:42] <knome> less technical moving parts, less prone to errors ;)
[14:42] <balloons> ture
[14:42] <knome> but yeah, it requires human attention every cycle
[14:42] <knome> and so does the slideshow anyway
[14:44] <balloons> yep.. probably why it is the way it is
[14:45] <knome> though, considering how everything that can be considered documentation is doing right now in mainbuntu, it's a bit meh
[18:08] <pitti> balloons, plars, jibel: autopkgtest's adb --serial option fixed: http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/autopkgtest/autopkgtest.git/commit/?id=445965
[18:08] <pitti> plars, balloons: I'll upload that to utopic now, unless you run it out of git?
[18:08] <plars> pitti: oh, cool!
[18:09] <plars> pitti: no, we have the package installed, so we'll need to update that on the server to see this change
[18:09] <pitti> plars: which autopkgtest is installed in the lab, is that vila's PPA?
[18:09] <pitti> plars: can you just grab the new utopic package then?
[18:10] <plars> pitti: no, in this case it's just from the archives
[18:10] <plars> pitti: yep
[18:10] <pitti> plars: the .deb will work fine on trusty or precise (if you have a backport of python3-debian)
[18:10] <plars> pitti: we are on trusty now
[18:13] <pitti> balloons: could ubuntu-ui-toolkit-autopilot move its libautopilot-qt dependency to libautopilot-qt5, to avoid dragging in a gazillion qt4 packages?
[18:14] <pitti> plars, balloons: there's your new autopkgtest: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/autopkgtest/3.3.2git1/+build/6247291
[18:14] <pitti> it'll still take some two hours until it lands in utopic, but I figure it doesn't matter much for you where you download the deb from
[18:23] <pitti> balloons: https://code.launchpad.net/~pitti/ubuntu-ui-toolkit/qt-deps/+merge/229843 s'il te plaît ?
[18:24] <pitti> or elopio
[18:26] <elopio> pitti: +1
[18:27] <elopio> I'll add it to my list of MPs to get approved by the sdk team. Howerver, this week they seem to be too busy because the queue is growing bigger.
[18:31] <pitti> elopio: yeah, it's one of these things I wish I could JFDI and upload :)
[18:31] <pitti> anyway, good night everyone!
[18:31] <elopio> good night.
[18:45] <jibel> pitti, Prima!
[18:50] <balloons> jibel, qu'est ce prima?
[19:14] <jibel> balloons, in German it means: excellent, great, wonderful!, fantastic, ...
[19:15] <balloons> jibel, awesome thanks.. that brings the german vocab up to at least 4 words now :-p
[19:16] <knome> balloons, ja!
[19:16] <elfy> hope one is bier
[19:16] <knome> right...
[19:16] <balloons> hallo knome and elfy
[19:16] <knome> that leaves two words to use
[19:16] <knome> i guess hallo is one
[19:16] <balloons> it's a requirement for work.. must be able to order beer in any language
[19:17] <knome> and "die mannschaft" has to be one..
[19:18] <balloons> I use danke instead of saying thank you in my everyday speech..
[19:18] <knome> awwh
[19:19] <balloons> I think it's the only german that has stuck around.. but anyways ;-)
[19:58] <stgraber> 12.04.5: respin in progress to get new dmidecode fixing install failure with recent qemu
[19:58] <stgraber> that affects all images
