pittisitter: a bunch of valid candidates now \o/10:05
pittisitter: gwenview still needs sorting out, though10:06
sitterpitti: yeah looking into that right now10:06
sitterpitti: question related to that... if I define the needs-recommends restriction it won't actually install recommends of the build deps will it?10:07
* pitti double-checks10:07
pitti(it's not meant to)10:07
pittisitter: correct10:08
sitterin particular the tests are missing runtime stuff that should be pulled in via recommends of relevant libraries. alas since recommends are not installed for build deps that kinda renders the tests broken ^^10:08
pittisitter: that is, it won't install it for "build-needed" when building the package10:08
pittisitter: but it *will* install them if you have "Depends: @builddeps@"10:08
pittisitter: hm, I thought the tests are just those that run during package build anyway -- how come they build on the buildds then?10:09
pittisitter: or does the package build just build the tests, but not run them?10:09
sitter.PHONY: override_dh_auto_test10:09
pittiah10:09
pittiand then debian/tests build the package and just call the built tests10:09
pittiso yeah, then "Depends: @" will just install all binary packagse and their depends/recommends; but if you need additional pacakges for tests only, they need to go there10:10
pittior you do "Depends: @, @builddeps@", but that would install a lot more than you'd need10:11
* sitter tries10:11
rbasakpitti: I keep seeing bugs that involve init.d failures where the systemd wrapper means that we didn't get useful logging in the bug report. I think we discussed this and agreed it was a wishlist item maybe for apport. Do we have a bug on this?10:17
pittirbasak: we don't? shouldn't that be in JournalErrors.txt at least?10:23
rbasakpitti: AFAICT, not all of the stderr from init.d ends up in the snippet that apport sends. Maybe it's filtering too much?10:24
rbasakpitti: I want to see all of the stdout and stderr from init.d really.10:25
rbasakpitti: if you think it should be doing that already I can point out a specific example when I next come across one.10:26
pittirbasak: that mostly depends on the init.d script; most of them redirect logging or double fork etc. (as sysvinit doesn't have a concept of logging)10:26
rbasakpitti: I was prompted by bug 1490607 which isn't directly this issue I don't think.10:26
ubottubug 1490607 in postfix (Ubuntu) "Improve feedback of postfix systemd unit start failure" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/149060710:26
pittirbasak: i. e. the problem is mostly that init.d scripts are usualy written in a way to *not* show stdout/stderr..10:26
rbasakpitti: I have no complaint if the init.d script does not output the failure reason when run by hand without systemd.10:27
pittirbasak: journalerrors> wow, this guy seriously needs to replace his hard disk :)10:27

pittiAug 31 13:12:52 hostname postfix/trivial-rewrite[25335]: fatal: /etc/mailname: file has 2 hard links10:28
rbasakpitti: my feeling is that something regressed on this since the systemd switch though. I seem to get more bug reports through apport with init.d start failures with no explanation than before10:28
rbasakpitti: but leave it with me. I'll find you a more concrete example when I next come across one.10:28
pittirbasak: this particular bug is just "my hard disk is totally screwed up", so it's uninteresting10:28
pittirbasak: for postfix specifically I doubt it, it only ever had an init.d script; for packages which *do* have an upstart job it's plausible as often the upstart job is simpler/more robust than the sysvinit script10:29
pittiin particular, logging in sysvinit is a disaster (which was one of the reasons for the ever-growing number of people crying for something more modern)10:30
rbasakHmm. It could be because of losing the upstart job, good point.10:30
snikitinHi guys, I tried to compare hash sums of images from here http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/trusty/current/ but image names in file with sums SHA256SUMS differ from actual images names. Is it ok?11:10
ogra_infinity, ^^^ ?11:11
ogra_snikitin, sounds like a bug11:12
rbasaksnikitin: I see files that are not listed, but no specific mismatches. Can you provide an example?11:25
snikitinrbasak: For example file vivid-server-cloudimg-amd64-disk1.img. In SHA256SUMS it names like ubuntu-14.04-server-cloudimg-amd64-disk1.img rather than vivid-server-cloudimg-amd64-disk1.img11:29
snikitinis it ok?11:29
rbasaksnikitin: the name listed in SHA256SUMS does still exist as a file you can download, no? So surely you can just use that one?11:36
rbasakutlemming: ^^11:36
rbasakutlemming: still maybe not great that SHA256SUMS doesn't include every listed name, maybe?11:37
Odd_Blokesnikitin: rbasak: We had a problem with trusty daily images, so the latest is currently hot-symlinked to the latest release.11:46

snikitinOdd_Bloke: I just worried that in all ubuntu versions names in SHA256SUMS are tha same with real names, exept trusty. In OpenStack we got one failing job because of this, and I wanted to know is it normal, or it's a bug and you fixed it soon11:52

cariboupitti: regarding the rsyslog ftbs, it fails on a testbench tool that is (from upstream's own opinion) third grade citizen.12:28
cariboupitti: now, I'm not even able to reproduce the failure in a PPA12:28
pitticaribou: ah, so the crash is in the test itself, not rsyslog?12:29
pitticaribou: if this is a new test, and known upstream, seems legit to disable that one?12:29
cariboupitti: yes, the testbench runs ./tcpflood which is known not to be too good12:29
cariboupitti: tcpflood is used in many tests, it is also the culprit on powerpc but in a different test12:30
cariboupitti: I'm suspicious that it may run out of memory on the official builder, which would be why I cannot reproduce12:30
cariboupitti: or it lies in a difference in builders used for PPA and the archive12:31
cariboupitti: FYI, all the testbench tests are new, they weren't used in 7.4.412:31
pitticaribou: ack; could you look into disabling that problematic test without disabling the whole test suite completely? (that would be a shame)12:32
cariboupitti: I'll have a  look at tests that use tcpflood (which is the programs that exist with the buffer overflow)12:33
cariboupitti: otherwise, we may see other FTBS later also caused by tcpflood12:33
pitticaribou: sounds good12:34
cariboupitti: no luck, it's used mostly everywhere. Can we find the memory setup of the builders used for i386/powerpc ?12:41
cariboupitti: if I can reproduce the buffer overflow, most probably I can fix it12:41
pittiinfinity: ^ do you know?12:41
pitticaribou: you could try building it in a RAM limited container?12:42

mbieblhallyn: well, you might also want your script if you are *not* in a container19:20
mbiebland I assume if systemd-detect-virt has no caps, it would still return != 019:20
mbieblso would work, in a sense :-)19:21
hallynmbiebl: heh, actually that's good enough :)19:28
hallynUnit193: agreed - saw the security notice last night19:29
mterrytinoco, poke about bug 1409904.  So those two trusty patches are ready for upload?  Does tgt not need a patch?20:03
ubottubug 1409904 in tgt (Ubuntu Trusty) "Needed patches for InfiniBand Support: Flow Steering and Offload Support + Fixes" [Undecided,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/140990420:03
tinocomterry: tgt needs iser support (trusty)20:03
tinocomterry: https://launchpadlibrarian.net/213595717/trusty_tgt_1.0.43-0ubuntu5.debdiff20:04
tinocomterry: there are 3 patches for trusty (libibverbs, libmlx4 and tgt)20:04
mterrytinoco, huh.  I see that on the file list for that bug, but not the comments20:04
tinocomterry: i may have hidden comments20:05
mterrytinoco, so these don't have ABI breaks?20:05
tinocomterry: sorry, this was long standing bug with several discoveries20:05
tinocomterry: nope, we are only discarding support for 2.6.32 < kernels20:05
cjwatsonLogan: hmm?  https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ddccontrol-db/+publishinghistory20:05
tinocowhich does not break things.20:05
tinocomterry: my first impression was wrong.20:06
tinocogood to go with this.20:06
Logancjwatson: whoops, I'm blind20:06
Logancjwatson: oh I know what happened - I saw that it built on Maverick, which confused me :P20:06
cjwatsonLogan: right, I had to copy it back from an older series with binaries, since it had already been built in the Ubuntu archive20:07
Loganyep, it makes sense now20:07
Loganthanks again!20:07
cjwatsonLogan: but it's just a database, don't expect it actually needs to be built again20:07
cjwatsonnp20:07
LoganI also think there probably needs to be a process removals run soon20:08
LoganI've seen a decent number of packages that have no Ubuntu delta, were deleted from Debian, but are still in Wily20:08
cjwatsonboth Steve and I have done some recentlyish20:08
Loganah okay20:08
cjwatsonthere are some other constraints, like rdeps or seededness20:08
Loganright20:08
cjwatsonit's unfortunately not very visible - p-r needs to be rewritten to be much less of a purely interactive tool20:09
brendandcjwatson, http://paste.ubuntu.com/12248134/20:11
cjwatsonbrendand: ok, next thing I'd try would be 'apt-get -oDebug::pkgProblemResolver=true install checkbox-converged-community' to see why it decided not to choose the resolution that involved installing python3-plainbox20:12
brendandcjwatson, i think i see it now,  i'll try something and hopefully it will work20:17
brendandcjwatson, i assume specifying both packages tells apt to damn its own judgement and just do what you say?20:18
cjwatsonbrendand: depends on the exact nature of the problem, but it does apply a bit more force20:19
mterrytinoco, one note: when doing an SRU, (I at least) favor a version number like ubuntu1.1 or ubuntu4.1 rather than ubuntu2 or ubuntu5 -- helps distinguish from a release that might be in current Ubuntu versions20:19
cjwatsonbrendand: given that this operation involves removing a bunch of packages including ubuntu-desktop, I suspect you're in a situation where apt is trying to assess the relative harm caused and being more specific might tip the score over a threshold20:20
tinocomterry: yep, arges has already advised me on that. will do next time!20:20
tinocomterry: i wrongly relied on dch -i20:20
tinocomterry: tks20:20
mterrydanjared, so per https://code.launchpad.net/~noskcaj/ubuntu/wily/dell-dup/dh-python/+merge/264080 should a removal request for dell-dup happen?20:51
danjaredmthaddon: yes, that's fine. we're not using it, and it's probably just confusing to have it there if we're not using it at all. if we need it again, I can work on getting it readded, but we're working on some completely different stuff for firmware updates these days anyway21:16
TJ-Is there a way to prevent systemd from creating generator targets for hot-plug disks? Currently it is causing very long delays at boot-time but I'm not sure at what point systemd decided those hot-plug devices should be added to the boot-time tasks23:24
