pittiLaney, slangasek: do you understand dracut on http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/proposed-migration/update_output.txt ?09:02
pittiLaney, slangasek: we fixed kbd and console-setup yesterday, and now in a wily-proposed chroot "apt-get install dracut-config-generic dracut dracut-config-rescue" works09:02
pittiThe following packages will be REMOVED:09:03
pitti  initramfs-tools mountall plymouth upstart09:03
pittiis it somehow complaining about that?09:03

Laneymatching upload* of initramfs-tools or something?09:05
pittiLaney: no, we are actually ahead of debian09:05
pittiLaney: yes, dracut does conflict to initramfs-tools, you can only have one provider of it09:06
pitti"it" == linux-initramfs-tool09:06
pittiLaney: i-t is Priority: important, is it due to that?09:06
Laneyso it's a chain from those packages I listed in the intstall line09:06
pittiLaney: hm, console-setup and kbd got fixed already09:07
pittito depend on i-t | l-i-t09:07

pittiboot test stuck since yesterday, argh -- /me pokes09:10
pittiLaney: so I guess that's why09:10
Laneyyes, it's kbd09:10
LaneyIf the autohinter doesn't figure this out you can add an easy hint for it09:10
pittiLaney: I cancelled the boottest (running for 21h), I give it another chance, and if it hangs again I'll force kbd09:11
pittithen let's see whether that suffices09:11
pittiLaney: thansk!09:11

pittisitter, Riddell: FYI, kwin tests regressed, so yesterday's KDE updates are stuck09:22
Riddelluh oh09:23
Riddellpitti: upstream says he knows and is working on how to fix the test rather than the code so I'll set it to ignore, do you know if I should use force-badtest or force-skiptest or both?09:41
pittiRiddell: I'd use force-badtest on that specific kwin version here09:41
pittiRiddell: that will unblock the packages that fail on the kwin reverse dependency too09:41
pittiRiddell: skiptest> unblock only that very package, regardless of hwo many test failures it triggered09:42
pittiRiddell: badtest> skip that particular test result, for any proposed package that triggers it09:42

ubottuLaunchpad bug 1488710 in testtools "testtools is incompatible with newer versions of Twisted" [High,Triaged]21:47
barrylifeless: not sure what you mean by "namespaced"21:48
lifelessbarry: ubuntu-ftbfs or something21:49
lifelessbarry: since its not a ftbfs for anyone else atm21:49
barrytoo bad you can't tag bugtasks21:49
lifelessbarry: yes, the its-not-quite-federated data model is a significant limiter here21:50
barrylifeless: i just removed the tags.  cjwatson's fix gets me almost all the way there.  still two failures; one i have fixed the other not so much yet21:51
lifelessbarry: oh?21:52
barrylifeless: yep.  the odd one is test_run_list_failed_import21:52
barryit doesn't raise SystemExit21:52
lifelessbarry: have you put a patch up for the other ?21:54
barrylifeless: not yet, i want to get it passing first and then i'll comment and/or submit a patch21:55
barrylifeless: i think i also need to dup #150 to #14921:56
lifelessdone21:57
barrythx21:57
barrylifeless: in the meantime, this is the other patch i needed: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12324069/21:59
barrylifeless: and the last one i'm hunting: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12324090/22:01
lifelesswe're getting a valueerror there?!22:03
lifelessI'd want to see where thats coming from - it may indicate a deeper problem22:04
barrylifeless: yes22:04
barrylifeless: but right now testtools is blocking several other packages so i'm just trying on bandaids that aren't too ugly22:05
lifelessbarry: hang on, what version of testtools is this?22:05
lifelessthat pastebin patches a test tht we don't have in that file...22:05
barrylifeless: ha.  1.4.0.  i guess that's old.22:06
lifelessbarry: ahahahahahahahahahahahaahhaa]22:06
lifelessbarry: yes. 1.8.0 is current22:06
barrylifeless: yay for ubuntu deltas :(22:06
lifelessbarry: its not that old - nov last year22:06
barryand 1.8.0 is in experimental only right now22:06
barrylifeless: so maybe bandaiding isn't horrible for wily.  we'll definitely sync up again in x.  or should i push through an ffe and try to get 1.8.0 in from experimental?22:07
lifelesshttps://github.com/testing-cabal/testtools/compare/testtools-1.4.0...1.8.022:09
lifelessso 1.6.0 is when we fixed up all the cruft and started depending on unittest222:10
lifelesshonestly, nothing is super critical22:10
lifelessdevs are going to pip install anyhow22:10
lifelessso if 1.4.0 is whats needed for other things packaged in Ubuntu, thats fine22:10
lifelessthere's no security issues that I can see22:11
barrylifeless: yeah, it's just a matter of bureaucracy ;/22:11
barrywell, i think i'll spend a little more time trying to fix this, and if i get lucky, i'll just upload fixes to ubuntu to unblock everything else.  maybe by the time we sync for x, upstream will release a fixed version22:12
lifelessbarry: heh, upstream works fine on 3.5 and 3.6 already22:17
barrylifeless: excellent22:18
lifelessbarry: the only issue upstream has is the twisted version22:18
lifelessbarry: and that cjwatson's patch will fix - its in fine tuning mode atm22:18
barrylifeless: ack22:18
barrylifeless: can you tell me what that test is supposed to do?22:19
lifelessbarry: the one in your pastebin ?22:23
barrylifeless: yeah, the one that's still failing.  i *think* i know but it's very difficult to debug why it's not failing in the expected way22:23
lifelessbarry: so prior to 1.6.0 we had code to handle python2's broken handling of non-text .py files22:24
lifelessbarry: that test tests that such a file errors as either a TypeError or SyntaxError. I'm not sure why TypeError is considered valid22:25
lifelessbarry: the test (and the code) is gone in 1.6, because we now use the rolling backport of linecache, which includes patches for tokenize, so it all just works22:25
lifelessbarry: and we have text strings in the line cache, or None, consistently22:26
lifeless(git diff testtools-1.5.0 testtools-1.6.0 in the source tree will let you see this)22:27
barrylifeless: is it possible that py 2.7.10 may have changed in a way that causes this test to not error?22:27
barrylifeless: since i'm guess you never ran 1.4.0 against 2.7.1022:27
lifelessbarry: hmm, I can't see anything trawling through hg22:30
lifelessbarry: though I'm not happy with the issue 23838 patch :)22:30
lifelessbut thats entirely different :>22:30
barrylifeless: yeah me neither going thru Misc/NEWS22:31
barry:)22:31
barrylifeless: since this test goes away in 1.8.0 would i make you puke on your keyboard if i just disabled it in 1.4.0 in wily?22:32
barrythough i'm willing to do a bit more debugging, i want to unblock the other packages.  i know it's horrible22:32
lifelessbarry: I think disabling it is probably fine, I very much doubt that other folk deliberately test with broken binary .py files in their tree22:34
lifelesswe had the test because someone somewhere had that happen to them and testtools blew up22:34
lifelessso we wanted to blow up in a way that exposed the issue they had, not our innards22:35
barrylifeless: ack and thanks.  if i can't figure it out by the dinner bell, that's probably what i'll do22:35
lifelessit would be better to migrate to 1.6.0+, but I appreciate your position22:35
lifeless(and won't give you grief about it :))22:37
cjwatsonlifeless: sorry, I had to sidetrack into other things, I shall get back to that branch before the end of the week22:48
cjwatsonlifeless: I think I would appreciate it if a testtools developer could file the bug against twisted though, because otherwise I can foresee myself getting into playing telephone-game between two sets of developers and that seems less than ideally productive22:48
lifelesscjwatson: yup, I shall do that. That comment was mainly what-do-people-thing22:51
lifelessthink22:51
cjwatsonThanks.  Since they seem to be trending away from exposing what testtools needs, probably good to let them know that somebody cares22:52
lifelesswhat I should do22:55
lifelessis submit a patch to their CI system to cross-test22:55
lifeless:)22:55
cjwatsonlifeless: PR up to date now I think22:57
cjwatsonDisentangling stuff in LP so that we can upgrade is still an open project :-/22:58
lifelessthank you23:00
