dokoLaney, or anybody else, please could you set up a transition tracker for ruby2.2? see https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=789077 for the ben file11:50
ubot93Debian bug 789077 in release.debian.org "transition: ruby2.2" [Normal,Open]11:50
Laneydoko: I added you to the team, have fun :)11:57
dokoLaney, go away ;-P11:57
Laneylooks like there were some iterations to the file after the first post in that bug, probably get the one that was actually used11:58
Laneyis this a good idea after feature freeze?12:00
dokoLaney, this is just about *adding* 2.2 support, not making it a default. this is clean-up not made by the server team unfortunately12:07
Laneydoko: Is there a risk it introduces new build failures for example?12:08
LaneyI remember adding python 3.5 as supported :)12:08
dokoLaney, wasn't me who prepared that ;p12:09
dokobut seriously, this happens when people don't do this kind of work before the freeze12:10
LaneyAre you saying it's half done already?12:11
dokolooking at the debian tracker, yes. the outstanding things for debian were the libstdc++6 related packages12:11
LaneyIn Ubuntu I mean12:12
dokowell, everything, which was uploaded since June ...12:12

utlemmin`slangasek, infinity: any reason why dh-python is a requirement of python3?15:24
slangasekutlemmin`: it's an annoying crutch for packages that should build-depend on dh-python but don't15:24
slangasek(which I learned at the DebConf Python BoF)15:24
utlemmin`slangasek, infinity: we're seeing a massive bloat in our cloud images because dh-python Depends libdpkg-perl, which now has a compiler dependency, so GCC is getting installed on wily cloud images15:25
slangasekwat15:25
utlemmin`slangasek: libdpkg-perl recommends libfile-fcntllock-perl which recommends a compiler15:25
=== utlemmin` is now known as utlemming
utlemmingslangasek: so, I'm pretty sure we don't want that15:26
slangasekutlemming: that's a horribly broken recommends from libfile-fcntllock-perl then15:26
infinityYeah, indeed.15:26
infinitylibdpkg-perl should not be bringing in a compiler, and nor should random perl modules.15:27
infinityWe can fix this.  We have the technology.15:27
utlemminginfinity: shall I file a bug?15:28
infinityutlemming: Nah, I'm on it.15:28

ubot93Debian bug 783760 in libfile-fcntllock-perl "libfile-fcntllock-perl: autopkgtest failure: File::FcntlLock::Inline needs cc" [Normal,Fixed]15:28
infinityYeah, that should be a suggests at best, I think.15:29
infinityOr we should make dpkg use a different perl module. :P15:29
infinityFor now, I'll just drop it to a suggests.15:30
infinity# Package for file locking with fcntl(2) in which the binary layout of15:32
infinity# the C flock struct is determined via compiling and running a C program15:32
infinity# each time the package is loaded15:32
infinityWAT.15:32
infinityThat's super efficient.15:32
infinityutlemming: Fix uploaded.15:37
infinityWell, "fix".15:37
infinityThe proper fix is more involved (guessing the fcntl bits at build time and including that in the package).15:38
infinityutlemming: Not that I don't also agree that the dh-python thing is somewhat madness, but libdpkg-perl is a thing a lot of people want anyway (say, for debsums), so that makes dh-python irrelevant to the discussion, IMO.15:43
utlemminginfinity: that's fair....the dh-python is the head of the dep chain that caused the bloat, which is why I asked.15:45
