JackFrostSnow-Man: Howdy.01:14
Snow-ManI don't suppose anyone else is seeing crashes with ipv6-enabled systems under the latest 14.04 kernel?01:14
Snow-ManLinux tamriel 3.13.0-43-generic #72-Ubuntu SMP Mon Dec 8 19:35:06 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux01:14
Snow-ManJackFrost: uhm, hi.01:14
Snow-ManI've just installed crashdump to see if I can catch it happening again.01:15
Snow-Manif so, I'll probably boot into the prior kernel I was running (3.13.0-40.69).01:15
Snow-ManI'm not 100% sure that it's ipv6-related, but the piece of the stack trace still visible clearly showed ipv6 in the output.01:16
Snow-Manperhaps also interesting is that this is happening to a KVM box and the physical box (which also has ipv6 enabled) isn't having any issues.01:17
Snow-Man(the physical box the KVM is sitting on, that is)01:17
Snow-Manthat box is running 3.13.0-43-generic #72-Ubuntu01:18
Snow-ManDoesn't seem to be network load related tho, as I can do a bump of ipv6 stuff (download debs, etc).01:21
Snow-Mananyway, was just curious if anyone else saw anything similar.  After the next crash I'll hopefully have enough information to file a useful bug report.01:21
weasel_popperthis may be a stupid suggestion, but I think that 'rm' should be required to have root privileges, and that a new program called 'dl' should be added which asks for confirmation on each record before deletion, and rather than removing the nodes from the filesystem it marks them and moves them to a trash directory of limited size03:34
Snow-Manlose something?03:34
weasel_poppernah, just reading a book called 'The Unix Haters Handbook'03:35
weasel_popperSome of these people have had horrendous mistakes with rm03:35
Snow-ManYou know, if these silly filesystems worked like databases do and required you to do a 'commit;'...03:35
Snow-Man(says the PostgreSQL committer)03:36
JackFrost1.  That'd be so terribly annoying, when I want to rm something, I want it removed (yes, I've made mistakes.  I don't want it changed.)  2. Simple fix: alias rm='rm -i'03:36
Snow-ManI *hate* that alias.03:38
Snow-Manand, I really *love* rollback;. ;D03:38
weasel_popperIt'd be no different than the 'del' command for DOS. you could call it with -, or type 'A' when it asks for the first confirmation to skip all others03:38
weasel_popperand you'd be able to restore files, rather than scraping your disk with fsck if you mess up03:39
Snow-Maneh, this is all uninteresting.03:39
Snow-ManIf you really want that, go write a filesystem to do it for you.03:39
Snow-ManShouldn't be too hard to do and you don't have to monkey around w/ rm.03:39
weasel_popperIt's probably not realistic to attempt to do this anyway, with all the tools that rely on rm. I just think it's a little to dangerous to be called directly. Like dd03:40
bluesabreAre any DMB members lurking?  It looks like the shimmer-themes source package fell out of the xubuntu packageset upload rights03:42
JackFrostSnow-Man: Yeeah, I got used to using -rf  because of that alias.03:44
Snow-ManJackFrost: indeed, that's one of the big problems w/ it.03:44
Snow-Manpfft, dd isn't dangerous03:45
Snow-Mandoing things as *root* is dangerous03:45
weasel_popperdd if=/dev/hd0 of=/dev/hd0 skip=103:45
weasel_popperthat's like divide by zero button for unix03:47
Snow-Manstill gotta be root to do it tho.04:08
ScottKbluesabre: Please send mail to the devel-permissions ML.05:38
dholbachgood morning07:07
Tribaalhi all07:09
Tribaaldholbach: I'm about to submit a SRU (later today) for landscape-client. What is the now favorite way to do this? Sending branches with the bug? Should I push some binary packages to -proposed for each version I'm targetting?07:10
dholbachhi Tribaal07:10
Tribaaldholbach: our docs indicate attaching debdiffs - but that feels... barbaric :)07:10
dholbachTribaal, branch is fine, source package is fine, patch is fine, but binary packages are not07:11
Tribaaldholbach: roger. So attaching branches to the bug + subscribing the SRU team (to the bug) is all I need?07:11
dholbachsubscribe 'ubuntu-sponsors' for somebody to upload the patches as well07:12
Tribaaldholbach: oh ok. So the sponsors/SRU guys do their own "debuild" dance then? (just curiosity, I'm re-documenting the process on our end)07:13
dholbachyes, they do07:13
Tribaaldholbach: awesome, thanks a lot07:13
dholbachif I'd upload it, I'd do a local test build, check the diff, and whatever feels necessary to see if things make sense :)07:13
dholbachanytime07:13
Tribaaldholbach: yeah, we have a pretty long procedure with many tests in place, I just installed the new package to a combination of 4 distros, 3 landscape server versions, and "fresh install" versus "upgrades". So I'm becomming an expert at local builds :p07:16
dholbach:)07:17
LaneyRiddell: is kubuntu-plasma5 still valid?11:17
LaneyIIRC that's folded into main kubuntu now11:17
RiddellLaney: right yes11:18
RiddellLaney: in which context?11:18
LaneyDMB: we were considering it when generating the kubuntu packageset11:18
* Laney drops11:18
bluesabrethanks Laney!11:48

mitya57ari-tczew: re d-feet: please talk to seb128, the revert was on his request11:50
ari-tczewmitya57: ok, thanks for reply11:50

shadeslayermitya57: hmm, true, I was hoping that it would return different exit codes for different things14:09
Tribaaldholbach: so I just subscribed the SRU team to the latest landscape-client bug, as promised :) Don't hesitate to let me know here if I can do anything else to help14:59
dholbachubuntu-sponsors too?15:01
dholbachor did you upload it already?15:01
Tribaaldholbach: oh right, subscribed.15:01
dholbachcool :)15:01
Tribaaldholbach: I might apply for single-package upload rights at some point, so I can do this part15:02
dholbachexcellent :-))15:02
Tribaaldholbach: I might annoy you for a testimonial once the wiki paperwork is done :)15:03
dholbachsure, let me know :)15:03
Tribaaldholbach: thanks :)15:04
infinitymlankhorst: Is there a reason you're still arch-restricting your lts backport stacks?15:07
infinitymlankhorst: (Note: we're not doing so for the lts-u kernel)15:08
mlankhorstoh no not at all15:08
mlankhorstI just don't have a way to test it on arm15:09
infinitymlankhorst: That's true for the dev release too, it doesn't stop us from building packages on all arches. :P15:09
mlankhorsthah15:09
mlankhorstI'd have to do the re-upload tomorrow then15:10
infinitymlankhorst: (ppc* are actually more my concern than arm, but I don't see any point in artificially restricting any of it in the backport)15:10
infinitymlankhorst: Worst case scenario, some driver or something works worse in one stack than in another, but people get choice that way.  *shrug*15:10
mlankhorstthere's just no way for me to test with 100% certainty..15:10
mlankhorstI might be able to test installability though15:11
infinitymlankhorst: We're only building point release desktop CDs on x86 (so far), so the 100% certainty testing really only needs to happen there.15:11
infinitymlankhorst: But giving people on other arches choice to flip stacks doesn't hurt, IMO.15:11
mlankhorsttrue15:13
mlankhorsti may be able to test installability on armhf at least15:13
mlankhorstinfinity: but what's the point when the only working 3d driver on other archs is llvmpipe15:28
infinitymlankhorst: nouveau works on some/most PPC machines.15:56
infinitymlankhorst: radeon is off again on again.15:56
infinitymlankhorst: In theory, most PCI drivers should work, in practice, it's hit and miss.15:57
mlankhorstok16:40
mlankhorstwhy would you update thoose though :p16:41
