dxsup #ubuntu-bugs! the trusty/utopic versions of the 'bitlbee' package are very broken https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bitlbee/+bug/131555004:08
ubot5Ubuntu bug 1315550 in bitlbee (Ubuntu) "Current 14.04 bitlbee build using broken OTR (fixed in nightlies)" [Undecided,Confirmed]04:08
dxboth were copied directly from debian testing while the debian testing version was broken04:08
dxand a fixed version was only uploaded in time for the jessie freeze, but not in time for the utopic freeze04:09
dxi'd like to do a SRU but the process looks scary04:10
dxaghh this is confusing07:57
dx>Check that the bug is fixed in the current development release, and that its bug task is "Fix Released". It is, in general, not appropriate to release bug fixes for stable systems without first testing them in the current development branch07:57
dxthe SRU page says that, so i changed the status of the ticket to fix released (didn't know i could do that)... and apparently that counts as closing the ticket?07:58
dxit's fixed in vivid, not in trusty or utopic07:58

ubot5mozzarella: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience09:57

dkesselmozzarella: you could contact the program's author and ask them for help10:14
rbasakbrainwash: that's a security bug, and the CVE tracker is already showing it as assigned10:17
rbasakMarking every security bug as Critical doesn't help the security team10:17
rbasakBetter to let them triage it.10:17
brainwashbut it does not hurt either, does it?10:18
mozzarelladkessel: I don't know which package the bug is from10:18
rbasakYes, it does, IMHO. It hides the really Critical bugs (from the POV of the security team) from them.10:18
dkesselmozzarella: do you know which program is affected by your bug?10:20
mozzarelladkessel: no10:21
mozzarellait's part of the desktop, not a program10:21
mozzarellawell…10:21

somebodyGood night. I am getting an annoying crash while attempting to install 14.10 from a freshly made USB stick. According to Apport, the command on which it crashes is "noprompt cdrom-detect/try-usb=true persistent file=/cdrom/preseed/ubuntu.seed boot=casper initrd=/casper/initrd.lz quiet splash -- maybe-ubiquity". I have reported it on Launchpad, but I am also looking for a way to cirumvent this bug and install the system. Any com23:56
