svetlanaHow to upgrade from 14.04 to 14.10? do-release-upgrade does not pick it up.08:08
Slingsvetlana: what happens when you do that though?08:09
svetlanaSling: it says it does not see any next release.08:09
Slingsvetlana: what does Prompt contain in /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades08:11
Slingif you are currently not on an LTS release (which 14.04 isn't) and your Prompt is 'lts' then it won't upgrade, afaik08:11
svetlanaSling: "lts"08:12
Slingso setting it to 'normal' would fix that08:12
svetlanaOk. Ta.08:12
Slingyou can always put it back to 'lts' afterwards to avoid getting non-lts releases later08:12

YamakasYis this channel more alive again ?09:38
=== kickinz1|afk is now known as kickinz1
lordievaderYamakasY: More alive? Compared to when?09:42
YamakasYlordievader, some weeks ago09:43
lordievaderYamakasY: Its allways about this active. It is nice and quiet, everything works ;)09:43
YamakasYlordievader, hehe, yes better than #ubuntu, I got banned some days ago as I´m not there that much and someone pinged me about Ubuntu finally running from on a rasp, those ops were freaking out it was untrue, we were forcing together and baf..09:45
YamakasYstrange channel these days09:45
YamakasYIRC changed :(09:46
=== Lcawte|Away is now known as Lcawte
lordievaderNot really.09:52
lordievaderIn my opinion anyways.09:52
=== Tribaal_ is now known as Tribaal
YamakasYlordievader, the #ubuntu channel is, it was dead for a while now we have ops there that want to answer a question before it´s even asked... and all stuff is most n00bish09:59
svetlanaYamakasY: it is not like irc changed. More like irc channel.10:06
YamakasYsvetlana, yap true10:06
YamakasYsvetlana, you name :P I must ask are you a male or female ?10:06
YamakasY*your10:07
svetlanaI manage to get answers when I want to still. What leaves me worried is that the distro contributes non-free stuff quite a bit. But I like spreading knowledge anyway and the way the channel is does not /get in the way/ of me doing so, so I'm happy.10:07
svetlanaI'm female.10:07
YamakasYthat is good! female in IT, finally not some male that takes a female name on iRC10:08
svetlanaWaiting on an upgrade to 14.10 now. It includes systemd by default, which is forced on me during the upgrade. Hopefully it boots; in that case I can figure it out.10:08
svetlanaI do not do IT as a job, only as a hobby.10:08
YamakasYoh they are changing too now ?10:08
YamakasYokay10:08
YamakasYgood hobby10:08
svetlanaI saydo not do a job in IT if you can. Most of the jobs result in proprietary output.  Consider non-IT job and do IT as a hobby.10:08
YamakasY#ubuntu is really for hobby now it seems, the channel lacks10:08
YamakasYI asked once something, #debian is better in those cases10:09
svetlanaI find it okay to ask in #ubuntu, it helps others to learn.10:09
svetlanaIf they don't know, I reformulate the question, and eventually figure it out.10:09
svetlanaThere was no Ubuntu question I had which would be impossible to address with the help of #ubuntu and the web, thus far.10:10
YamakasYyeah but the way is wrong, the ops and some tard think they are king... they are just a number on this world to be honest10:10
YamakasYyou can google everything about Ubuntu these days10:10
YamakasYmuch better10:10
svetlanaI think it is not as much problem with ops as persons. It is a problem of the channel being too big and too fussed about offtopic stuff.  If one invents a way to split it, it'll become okay. And yesh, more people helping in there would also help.10:12
svetlanaI am about to fall asleep. Through this dog slow internet and 1GB of upgrades.10:13
YamakasYhaha10:13
lordievaderUtopic does not run systemd by default, it has it installed due to udev.10:15
lordievaderEven 15.04 doesn't run systemd by default.10:15
YamakasYokay, so it won´t be default ?10:17
YamakasYever ?10:17
YamakasYI mean why do they want to switch ?10:17
Odd_BlokeYamakasY: http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/1316 is sabdfl's blog post on the matter.10:19

jamespagerbasak, I find my memory around library soname bumps slightly hazy? do you have a moment to double check something for me?11:11
rbasakjamespage: sure11:11
jamespagerbasak, so the new corosync point release for vivid bumps libvotequorum from 6->711:11
jamespagefine11:11
jamespageso I think that all I need todo is cut the new libvotequourum7 package, drop the 6 one and then update deps for transition support11:12
jamespagealthough other than corosync, nothing else depends on this...11:12
rbasakAh, I hadn't addressed corosync yet. Thank you for looking at it.11:12
* rbasak is still working on MySQL :-/11:12
jamespagerbasak, keep working in mysql :-)11:13
jamespagerbasak, oh I took some time on my travels to look at dpdk as well11:13
rbasakjamespage: agreed. I don't think you need to do anything else. As long as that's the only sover bump?11:15
jamespagerbasak, as far as I can see yes it is11:15
* rbasak wonders why they're shared libraries in the first place11:16
rbasakI suppose there might be out-of-archive builds against it.11:16
rbasakDoesn't sound exactly like a point release though! :)11:17
jamespagerbasak, yeah I was a little surprised11:17
jamespageprobably not a candidate for a MRE :-)11:17
rbasakI suppose it's better that they bumped the sover than breaking ABI and not bumping anything at all.11:18
rbasakNot that it would impact anything in this case!11:18
jamespagerbasak, http://paste.ubuntu.com/10140929/11:22
jamespagedoes that look sane?11:22
=== deegee is now known as drussell
rbasakjamespage: you might not need to Conflict/Replace libvotequorum5 any more as I don't see it in the archive.11:30
jamespagerbasak, good point11:31
rbasakjamespage: looks fine. There aren't any symbols files that need updating, do they?11:31
jamespagerbasak, so just 6 required for upgrades - makes sense11:31
jamespagerbasak, nope - checked that already11:31
rbasakjamespage: I would prefer to test the binaries though - I guess you know how to do that better than me.11:31
rbasakA dep8 test would be nice :-)11:32
jamespagerbasak, a bit tricky with a single instance11:32
rbasakYeah. I wonder if we should start arranging amulet tests for this kind of thing.11:32
jamespagerbasak, but even a basic package install test is useful11:32
rbasakkickinz1 has a similar need with a postgresql clustering bug he's working on.11:32
rbasakIn all that free time you have, of course :)11:32
jamespagerbasak, gnuoy has been working on that sort of stuff using mojo - we have the start of a full openstack ha cloud scenario11:33
jamespagekills units, makes sure stuff is still functional etc...11:33
rbasakThat sounds good.11:33
rbasakNow that we have generally good dep8 coverage or at least a plan where that's missing, I think this might be the next testing hole for general server packaging.11:34
=== martinst is now known as martins-afk
coreycbzul, jamespage: juno stable is all set for review.  cinder, neutron, and nova are dependent on this though - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nova/+bug/141911712:44
Piffer_In order to have crontab (root) execute a script, that stops a app, deletes a file, and starts the app again. When I run the script manually as root, it works fine. When cron runs it, the app is stopped, file deleted, but the app is not started. Are there any special tricks to have cron start an app?13:14
maswanNo, but the environment might be a bit different. Maybe something is not in the path when run from cron or something needs to be set?13:15
Piffer_thanks, I think its a path issue.... that makes sense.13:18
Piffer_maswan: Thanks, it was a path issue. I had added the folder to the path, but not the sub folder containing the config file.13:25
jamespagecoreycb, looking at you eventlet bump now13:28
jamespagecoreycb, made one minor tweak13:32
jamespageconvention is to use a point on the packaging version13:32
jamespage1ubuntu4 -> 1ubuntu3.113:32
jamespagetbh it did not really matter as vivid has a new upstream release13:32
jamespagecoreycb, are you good on how to specify that as the min version for the things that need it?13:32
coreycbjamespage, did you mean 1ubuntu4 -> 1ubuntu4.1 ?13:33
jamespagecoreycb, no13:33
jamespagethe current utopic release version is 1ubuntu3 right?13:34
coreycbjamespage, ah, right..13:34
jamespageso just add a minor version bump13:34
coreycbjamespage, got it. so is there a trick in debian/control for packages that use eventlet?  currently cinder has python-eventlet (>= 0.13.0)13:35
jamespagecoreycb, as you want to ensure that you get the right patch in packaging you need to extend taht13:36
jamespage(hint: and deal with the cloud archive backport at the same time)13:36
coreycbjamespage, something like... python-eventlet (>= 0.13.0-1ubuntu3.1~)13:38
jamespagecoreycb, +1 spot on13:41
coreycbjamespage, Ok I'll make the updates to the openstack packages.  any idea when eventlet will be available for me to rebuild?13:45
jamespagecoreycb, well I suspect the SRU team will process all-in-one go13:46
jamespagecoreycb, so don't depend on it being in the proposed archive just yet - you'll need to work from a ppa for now I guess13:46
coreycbjamespage, ok13:47
jamespagerbasak, that corosync update works OK - although it did reveal a slightly nasty side effect of the upgrade13:52
jamespagepacemaker needs a restart with the newer corosync version13:53
rbasakjamespage: interesting. I suppose the right way would be arrange that inside postinsts somehow (not sure if that's allowed by policy directly though). But maybe not worth it?13:54
jamespagerbasak, I'm actually pondering whether this is another ceph like think13:54
rbasakI don't follow. ceph like thing?13:54
jamespagerbasak, for ceph, the restart of daemons must be co-ordinated across a cluster, otherwise you get outage13:55
rbasakI see13:55
jamespagerbasak, so the package maintainer scripts don't stop/start anything during upgrades; that's up to the operator13:55
jamespagerbasak, its still not ideal but its more controllable13:55
rbasakMakes sense.13:55
jamespagerbasak, the same might apply to a clustered system set13:55
jamespageyou want to upgrade the binaries, then restart the daemons in a controlled way13:56
rbasakI suppose corosync/pacemaker is fundamentally a multi-server thing that packaging can't be expected to orchestrate.13:56
rbasakSo more controllable, with the packaging doing less, makes sense.13:56
jamespagerbasak, I'll not poke at that for now13:59
jamespagerbasak, tbh I think some of its due to the version bump which won't happen post release14:00

hariomHi, I am using virtualbox for running Ubuntu 12.04 server edition. The command line screen is very small despite install guest addition. How to increase size of the command line screen?14:10
CiPiHello, i have a question, i have upgradedfrom 12.04 to 14.04, everything worked fine, but the only problem is that is booting on the old kernel, and how can i boot from kernel 3.13 ?14:23
CiPiHow can i boot from another kernel from terminal via ssh14:23
coreycbjamespage, you mentioned something earlier about  "it did not really matter as vivid has a new upstream release".   what did you mean?14:25
jamespagecoreycb, oh - so the convention is to drop a minor point in - 3.1 for example14:26
coreycbjamespage, right, I got that part -- but this is for juno-utopic so not sure what the relation to vivid was14:27
jamespagecoreycb, this would ensure that you would not conflict version wise with a pure packaging update in the later ubuntu release14:27
jamespageutopic->vivid14:27
jamespageupgrade path14:27
jamespagecoreycb, but vivid has 0.15 so its fine14:27
