| bluesabre | knome: but I think that's related to how planet is configured | 00:17 |
| bluesabre | knome: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PlanetUbuntu#Adding_Your_Blog | 00:18 |
| knome | bluesabre, but the link points to the xubuntu site, and it has worked before | 00:19 |
| * bluesabre shrugs | 00:19 | |
| bluesabre | just a thought, nothing more | 00:20 |
| bluesabre | :D | 00:20 |
| knome | o.O | 00:21 |
| knome | http://release-blog.ubuntu.com/?feed=rss2 | 00:21 |
| knome | see what happens when you access that url. | 00:21 |
| bluesabre | knome: looks fine to me | 00:27 |
| knome | not | 00:27 |
| knome | see the location | 00:27 |
| bluesabre | oh | 00:28 |
| knome | yeah | 00:28 |
| bluesabre | I see.... | 00:28 |
| knome | pointed this out to the IS | 00:28 |
| knome | and i got the http request to work | 00:28 |
| bluesabre | release-blog goes to xubuntu.org | 00:28 |
| knome | yes | 00:28 |
| knome | the IS vanguard is working on it :) | 00:28 |
| bluesabre | :D | 00:28 |
| bluesabre | going out to get some food, bbabl | 00:29 |
| knome | bon appetit | 00:30 |
| knome | ...oh | 00:42 |
| knome | launchpad isn't giving us etag results for the stuff we're requesting in the http headers | 00:42 |
| knome | only in the json | 00:43 |
| knome | that's why they never match | 00:43 |
| sidi | Having some fun with Firejail. http://sidi.mupuf.org/files/xfce-workspace-sandbox.ogv | 04:32 |
| sidi | There's a Wily/Vivid PPA for the curious ones among you at https://code.launchpad.net/~ucl-cs-study-devs/+archive/ubuntu/multitasking-study. Needless to say, use at your own risk. | 04:32 |
| sidi | http://i.imgur.com/YfZS9SC.png is the list of options :] | 04:32 |
| sidi | Feedback is welcome, though at this stage this is alpha, and I will not attempt to merge it into any project whatsoever. | 04:33 |
| bluesabre | sidi: neat! | 04:40 |
| flocculant | !team | anyone awake? | 09:51 |
| ubottu | anyone awake?: bluesabre, dkessel, flocculant, jjfrv8, knome, krytarik, micahg, Noskcaj, ochosi, pleia2, slickymaster and Unit193 | 09:51 |
| dkessel | hey flocculant ! | 10:00 |
| flocculant | dkessel: morning - you're just the man :) | 10:00 |
| flocculant | you got a minute to read a short draft for me? | 10:01 |
| dkessel | flocculant: sure | 10:01 |
| flocculant | dk@ubuntu.com? | 10:02 |
| flocculant | dkessel: ^^ | 10:02 |
| flocculant | sent to what I assume is your ubuntu address | 10:04 |
| dkessel | I think it is good. It emphasizes exactly what is needed | 10:11 |
| flocculant | cheers Daniel - I'll send it now then :) | 10:11 |
| dkessel | np :) | 10:21 |
| flocculant | this is going to be painful ... | 10:39 |
| bluesabre | morning | 11:05 |
| dkessel | hello bluesabre :) | 11:56 |
| Nairwolf | hi flocculant, I've read your mail. I should able to make the two tests for amd64 with hardware | 12:19 |
| flocculant | hi bluesabre :) | 12:28 |
| flocculant | Nairwolf: thanks :) | 12:29 |
| bluesabre | hey flocculant , dkessel, Nairwolf | 12:29 |
| flocculant | bluesabre: how's Saturday - I guess really early :p | 12:33 |
| bluesabre | flocculant: very early indeed | 12:34 |
| flocculant | oh good lord :| | 12:34 |
| bluesabre | my first "morning" was immediately followed by being dragged back to bed because it was too early | 12:34 |
| flocculant | downloaded what I thought was 14.04.4 - seems I need 400Mb of updates :( | 12:35 |
| flocculant | bluesabre: ha ha | 12:35 |
| Nairwolf | I have on my working computer an image of xubuntu 14.04.1. Don't you think it's important to test this upgrade also ? | 12:37 |
| bluesabre | Nairwolf: if its a machine you depend on, I'd recommend not testing upgrades on it at this time | 12:39 |
| flocculant | bluesabre: why in the world would a mirror keep 14.04,.1,.2,.3 as well as having something that's actually up to date :| | 12:40 |
| Nairwolf | bluesabre: yes, I wouldn't do it directly. I think I will firstly clone my system in a "test-computer" | 12:40 |
| bluesabre | flocculant: posterity? | 12:41 |
| flocculant | Nairwolf: how do you have .1 ? | 12:41 |
| * flocculant makes sure to zsync the right one for 64 bit ... | 12:42 | |
| flocculant | ha - it's only 60% wrong then :p | 12:43 |
| flocculant | glad I have FFTH ... | 12:44 |
| Nairwolf | flocculant: I've installed xubuntu when 14.04.1 was the most recent version of the LTS | 12:49 |
| Nairwolf | Something like August 2014 | 12:49 |
| flocculant | yea - but not upgraded since then? | 12:50 |
| Nairwolf | I'm still with linux 3.13 and I've heard on 14.04.4 the kernel version is higher | 12:50 |
| Nairwolf | no, I wanted to stay on a LTS version | 12:50 |
| flocculant | upgrading packages ... | 12:51 |
| flocculant | anyway - whatever - as far as the mails goes - I'm after 14.04.4 to 16.04 upgrades | 12:51 |
| flocculant | so - vm if necessary | 12:51 |
| Nairwolf | what do you mean by "upgrading packages" ? I'm running "sudo apt install && dist-upgrade" everyday | 12:52 |
| flocculant | that'll get you 14.04.4 with the old kernel | 13:02 |
| flocculant | trying the upgrade with the HWE stack (I hope) | 13:02 |
| flocculant | that's a good start ... | 13:17 |
| flocculant | won't authenticate a package - with continue? in the title - no option to continue :p | 13:19 |
| bluesabre | oh nice | 13:32 |
| flocculant | module-init-tools | 13:36 |
| flocculant | moving on to 15.10 :p | 13:36 |
| flocculant | which at least got further | 14:55 |
| knome | 16:54 notice < queuebot:#ubuntu-release: New binary: lxpanel [i386] (xenial-proposed/universe) [0.8.2-1ubuntu1] (lubuntu, ubuntustudio, xubuntu) | 14:56 |
| knome | wut? lxpanel and xubuntu? | 14:56 |
| flocculant | nice | 14:59 |
| bluesabre | knome: its because lxpanel plugins are built from xfce4-power-manager | 15:08 |
| knome | aha | 15:46 |
| cm2 | bluesabre: but why does that imply that lxpanel needs to be in xubuntu? | 15:49 |
| flocculant | 15.10 upgraded to 16.04 \o/ | 15:56 |
| flocculant | half way through today's | 16:01 |
| knome | :) | 16:02 |
| flocculant | I'd like to be able to at least give our testers some pointers :) | 16:02 |
| flocculant | like - try that - confirm the fail please :p | 16:02 |
| flocculant | knome: btw #bbbbbb appears to be ok after a few days | 16:07 |
| mikodo | Hi. Just trying to learn. Not doing the testing now. On the daily digest now from flocculant "Subject: Xenial Upgrade Testing week" states if one can use hardware for release-upgrade it would be preferred.. Question: If one has an usb install with "persistence" for testing, like with mkusb, could that be used for testing and reporting? | 16:20 |
| flocculant | mikodo: to be completely honest - I'm not at all sure whether you can or can't | 16:22 |
| mikodo | Okay, I'll guess I find out in the future. Thanks. | 16:22 |
| flocculant | I would hazard a guess that if you *could* and it had bugs doing so - then the bugs would get marked invalid - they're probably more likely to care about hardware or vm upgrades | 16:22 |
| mikodo | Sorry, I don't understand. Does ^^ that mean it would most likely not be helpful? | 16:24 |
| flocculant | yea - or at least that's how I would see it logically | 16:24 |
| flocculant | we aren't the ones who'd fix upgrade fails - canonical people would | 16:24 |
| flocculant | so I can't really see them being overly bothered about a persisent usb install | 16:25 |
| mikodo | flocculant, Okay | 16:25 |
| flocculant | that's not to say that I'm right of course :) | 16:25 |
| mikodo | :) | 16:25 |
| flocculant | :) | 16:25 |
| mikodo | flocculant, Can I bother you for one more question. Would the persistent usb install of testing images generally be helpful for other testing other than this do you think? | 16:26 |
| flocculant | mikodo: it's not something that I've given a great deal of thought to up to now | 16:27 |
| mikodo | flocculant, I think I will ask that to sudodus the author or mkusb. Thanks1 | 16:28 |
| flocculant | and it's never a bother either :) | 16:28 |
| mikodo | author of ... | 16:28 |
| flocculant | mikodo: just so you know - hot off the press and all that - trusty to xenial upgrades are failing, wily to xenial are passing | 16:30 |
| mikodo | Yea, I was getting that impression from reading the digest notes, you sent or, something like that was happening | 16:31 |
| flocculant | well - we didn't test for the trusty point release at all - so this is catch up :) | 16:31 |
| flocculant | but the one failing was doing so a while back when I looked | 16:31 |
| mikodo | I just started reading the digest this week, but I new their was not the degree of testing done this release as before | 16:32 |
| mikodo | Man my spelling sucks if I don't read what I typed! Thanks. | 16:34 |
| flocculant | testing has been quiet since the testing done for Trusty | 16:34 |
| === pleia2_ is now known as pleia2 | ||
| pleia2 | hey, people pay attention to us http://news.softpedia.com/news/xubuntu-16-04-lts-probably-won-t-come-with-a-default-media-manager-installed-501067.shtml | 16:46 |
| pleia2 | social media-ing the upgrade testing stuff | 16:47 |
| flocculant | nice and also thanks :) | 16:49 |
| mikodo | 'Tis on the Xubuntu wiki right? | 16:50 |
| flocculant | mikodo: that is yea | 16:50 |
| mikodo | I understand, getting the word out. Thanks! | 16:50 |
| pleia2 | flocculant: btw, if you could always provide a link to the iso tracker in these emails, it would help :) (if someone sees a tweet for the first time, what's an iso tracker?) | 16:51 |
| pleia2 | for fb and G+ I manually add it in the text, twitter has not enough characters | 16:51 |
| flocculant | pleia2: yep ok | 16:51 |
| flocculant | I guess that this one I'd mentally aimed at people who normally test for us :) | 16:52 |
| mikodo | ^^ +1 I was wondering about that but, thought I would figure it out when the time came for me to test. | 16:52 |
| flocculant | mikodo: http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/ | 16:55 |
| mikodo | Thanks, I'll have a look. :) | 16:56 |
| flocculant | I've just mailed the direct links to our stuff | 16:57 |
| flocculant | postifx is failing to update in xenial today too :) | 16:57 |
| pleia2 | https://skitterman.wordpress.com/2016/02/26/postfix-3-0-woes/ | 16:58 |
| pleia2 | so, yeah | 16:58 |
| flocculant | aaah - it'll catch up then | 16:59 |
| flocculant | not even sure what postfix is and why I need it - or indeed why I need it updating :D | 17:00 |
| pleia2 | mailserver, it's used by default to send local messages to users on the system | 17:00 |
| pleia2 | error logs go to root, etc, that weird "You have mail." when you log in :) | 17:00 |
| flocculant | right - so not something I'd want really | 17:00 |
| flocculant | wonder why I have it :) | 17:01 |
| pleia2 | it's important for those who use it | 17:01 |
| flocculant | yea of course - I understand that - now I have more idea what it is :p | 17:01 |
| pleia2 | I have a cold, so I'm going back to bed now | 17:01 |
| pleia2 | have fun | 17:01 |
| flocculant | oh dear :( | 17:02 |
| jjfrv8 | flocculant, confirmed the trusty upgrade bug. Working on xenial. | 17:43 |
| flocculant | jjfrv8: cool - thanks :) | 17:47 |
| flocculant | nice to know it's not just local | 17:47 |
| bluesabre | cm2: that doesn't mean it's in xubuntu, but rather that it is in the xubuntu packageset (and therefore able to be uploaded by us) | 19:35 |
| mikodo | re: mkusb https://help.ubuntu.com/community/mkusb See responses following my question on using it for testing: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1958073&page=35&p=13447113#post13447113 | 20:34 |
| mikodo | actully just before my link response to the questions. | 20:35 |
| mikodo | "Actually the responses just before my linked to response to the answers. | 20:38 |
| flocculant | so - that implies I was right then :) | 20:57 |
| mikodo | flocculant, Yes, that is correct! :) | 21:04 |
