phillwwxl: with a stable A2 out, and the beta a little way off. Maybe a good time to look at 14.04 --> 16.04 upgrading?22:02
wxlphillw: absolutely!22:02
wxltsimonq2: you want to do some upgrade tests?22:02
tsimonq2wxl: at dad's until Monday after school, sorry22:02
wxlphillw: we did get some daily upgrade tests done as part of gci but those were with xenial, so not best22:03
wxltsimonq2: want to do some then? we have until the 11th before 14.04.4 is due22:03
wxlor is it .5?22:03
wxli can't remember22:03
tsimonq2wxl: sure22:03
phillwwxl: I tried earlier, and it hung.... restarting and using dpkg --configure -a did unlock the freeze,22:03
wxltsimonq2: so remember you need to use trusty daily22:03
tsimonq2wxl: so Trusty daily to Xenial?22:03
phillwwxl: I used a clean trusty fully on 14.04.322:04
wxlwell maybe phillw's right22:04
wxldaily might be too much of a moving target22:04
wxlon the other hand it can be assumed that a trusty to xenial install would be fully updated22:04
wxlas i believe that's a part of the upgrade instructions no?22:04
phillwwxl: yeah the daily is the next in line for 14.04.422:04
tsimonq2wxl: well let's have tests for Trusty 14.04, 14.04.3, Daily, and Wily!22:04
tsimonq2well minus just plain 14.04 I think22:05
wxlyes agree22:05
phillwwxl: at present you have to do it via cli22:05
tsimonq2but seperate tests would be good22:05
wxltsimonq2: make it your goal to do so before next tuesday22:05
tsimonq2wxl: alright22:06
wxlso that would be the 9th22:06
tsimonq2wxl: I'll also figure out how to crank out testcases22:06
wxlcuz the 9th we should have our trusty milestone to test22:06
tsimonq2wxl: as in making them22:06
tsimonq2wxl: I'll get test cases made and email them to you22:06
tsimonq2wxl: I can get that done within the next few days as well22:07
wxlk great22:07
phillwwxl: after 14.04.4 sounds good. That will be the one in place when 16.04 lands :)22:07
wxlright22:07
tsimonq2well I'll accomodate for that, then once 14.04.4 is released then we can just update the testcases22:07
wxltsimonq2: so don't worry about anything but lts → lts for now22:07
tsimonq2wxl: well I might as well knock them all out22:08
phillwbut, if someone can look into if the cli upgrade with -d hangs for you.22:08
wxlwell if time allows22:08
wxlotherwise prioritize22:08
tsimonq2wxl: dude I can crank them out in the next few hours if parents or something else don't interrupt, don't worry about my time! :P22:08
wxlokok22:09
phillwwxl: what brought it to my attention was the ML where a PPC user asked about the 14.04 --> 16.04 upgrade on his system.... And I thought, yeah - he's got a point.. 14.04 was not an LTS for lubuntu EXCEPT that we said we only do PPC as LTS :P22:09
wxlright22:10
tsimonq2phillw, wxl: I mentioned this about a week ago! Did anybody listen? no! lol :P22:10
wxltsimonq2: sometimes things slip through the cracks. no worries22:10
tsimonq2:P22:11
phillwwxl: anyways, (16:43:40) Sickofthebluescr: Hi All :) I just joined the testing group and I wanted to say hello. I'll be testing LXQT with the new alpha on a G3 iBook PPC later today22:11
wxloh! is that our friend from facebook?22:12
phillwso we have a guy used to filing bugs with a G3 also available :)22:12
phillwwxl: indeed, it was a very painless and swift assimilation :)22:12
tsimonq2wxl: alright, made a bug to keep track of it and subscribed the Lubuntu packaging team22:14
tsimonq2wxl: I'll work on it for the next few hours22:17
phillwwxl: I so love how a bug that affects all of *buntu can be marked as low priority... So glad I'm not on the bug squad :D :D23:22
wxlwhich one????23:22

wxli'm going to remove the default settings crap23:34
phillwteward: I can also pull in the server ones if iso-tracker is still being a bitch for you.23:34
wxlthe issue is nm-manager, no/23:34
tewardphillw: nah, i have to confer with matsubara to determine if we need to do a test on manual package selection23:35
tewardthat appears to be the only thing left on my radar23:35
phillwokies :)23:35
tewardsince the dailies don't let me select a package to add in addition to everythign else (open-vm-tools for my VM envs)23:35
wxltsimonq2: i'll get to your bug later i promise23:35
tsimonq2k wxl23:36
phillwteward: hmm, do let me know as it will kill the issue of the correct method to install LAMP for people wanting to learn about things.23:36
tewardphillw: thought we had LAMP Stack in the tasksel items?23:36
phillwteward: test on manual package selection ??!!23:37
phillwsorry, confused @ phillw23:37
tewardphillw: there's a "manual package selection" tasksel task23:37
tewardit doesn't have a testing task23:37
tewardbut i use it in my installations to select open-vm-tools upon install23:38
tewardso that the VMware Tools are 'there' via the open source variant23:38
tewardi think the other tasksel items work though23:38
tewardwifi's being slow, brb, gotta run a huge LAN cable23:38
phillwteward: I thought we started with 'does the VM not shut down'?? ...23:38
tewardphillw: that's on my list too ;)23:39
tewardphillw: i'm doing multiple tests you know23:39
tewardboth Lubuntu, and Server23:39
tewarddon't forget, server team first, Lubuntu tester if i'm not busy23:39
phillwteward: so will I .... my g3 mac book arrives in next 10 days....23:39
phillwteward: I'm always happy to test things for server team.23:40
tewardindeed, though my tests end up being specific to VMware sometimes :)23:41
phillwserver install system is a pre-requisite really for alternate installer..... I know we can use the net-boot image, but that is asking a lot of  n00b :)23:41
tewardeheh23:41
tewardwow, slow system is slow...23:41
teward>.<23:41
tewardi seriously need to jack into LAN, back in a bit23:41
