desrti went through FRA07:29
seb128Laney, attente, robert_ancell, not good enough, "error-unreadable-package-file: gnome-calculator" ... it gets the source name not the full pathname, which I guess is what it needs07:35

dholbachare you going to look at the appstream stuff in the sponsoring queue at the sprint?08:01
seb128Sweet5hark, do you know if the dpkg-maintscript-helper bug has steps to trigger it? or do we just reports?08:02
Sweet5harkhavent tried to reproduce yet -- so far all I have is those reports ...08:09

Laneywe're meowing from prague08:53
chrisccoulsonhow's prague?08:59
seb128Laney, pitti, do you know about "update-rc.d ... remove" erroring out with  "... exists during rc.d purge"? I've a friend who had his trusty to xenial update failing because ppp.preinst hit that one09:00
pittiseb128: that doesn't ring a bell with me, sorry09:00
seb128the pppd-dns one if that case09:00
pittiwhat exists during rc.d purge?09:00
seb128the ppp.preinst errored out with "pppd-dns exists during rc.d purg" which seems to be the preinst call to "update-rc.d pppd-dns remove"09:01
seb128I don't really understand what the errors means though09:01
Laneysorry09:02
Laneytry slangasek?09:02
seb128yeah, a bit early for him09:02
seb128I'm going to watch out for other reports09:02
seb128it's possible that my friend deleted some conffile or something09:03
Sweet5harkLaney, pitti: https://twitter.com/TheLadBible/status/72385967947925094409:03
seb128the system is like several LTS cycles old with quite some custom changes and upgrades09:03
seb128easier workaround would be to not fail the preinst on errors from that call, unsure if that would be right though09:04

pittioh, there are; I'm getting tons of duplicates on upgrade failures :/09:17
seb128oh? :-(09:21
seb128some common issues?09:21
seb128like one bug we can fix to address most?09:21

=== muktupavels is now known as muktupavels_
pittiwe SRUed the fix to trusty and wily, but so far most people don't update their trusty/wily before dist-upgrading to xenial :/09:22
seb128isn't the dist-upgrader supposed to make you do that?09:22
seb128like ask you to apply SRUs before upgrading?09:22
pittiI thought it would upgrade to the new apt first09:22
pitti(which would work as well)09:22
pittibut not sure why that happens so often still09:22
seb128people upgrading manually?09:22
pittiwell, I got maybe 10 or 15 reports after the release09:23
pittiif several thousand upgraded, that would still count as "few" I guess09:23
pittiyeah, could be manual apt-get dist-upgrade09:23

hikikoTrevinho, https://code.launchpad.net/~hikiko/compiz/compiz.trusty-1442728/+merge/292773 I hope it's fine09:39
xnoxseb128, pitti - upgrading apt alone, results in a cycle, with a pre-depends which old apt fails to handle. Hence the bug.10:05
xnoxthe best we can do, is SRU a fix to all old apts that we can.10:06
xnoxand hope people upgrade to latest updates, before upgrading further up.10:06
xnoxwhich we have now.10:06
xnoxdoes dist-upgrader upgrade people to -updates first, then upgrade apt, then upgrade to next series?10:06
pittixnox: we already SRUed it with fast-tracking last week10:07
xnoxright. so that's the best we can do. and wait for everyones mirrors to catch up10:07
xnoxand upgrades =/10:07
pittiRAOF: are you going to merge colord soon, or want me to? I'm merging gnome-color-manager, and the new version needs a new colord10:51

hikikokgunn, I am in the sprint in Prague, I m going to find a quiet place and join you in a few minutes13:36
hyperairLaney: oh. i thought the appstream stuff was separate from dep1113:36
hyperairLaney: so how do i debug why something's missing from the dep11 dump?13:38

hyperairand yes it was an icon14:51
hyperairi placed it in the wrong place14:51
hyperair /usr/share/icons/hicolor/256x256 instead of /usr/share/icons/hicolor/256x256/apps14:52

ximionLaney: you need to set the dataPriority flag for AppStream metadata in the -updates, -backport, etc. suites to someting >> 015:04
ximionotherwise the new data won't override the old one15:04
trmsuok15:05
hyperairximion: um how do you set that?15:10
desrttrmsu: mmm15:15
ximionhyperair: on the server, set the "dataPriority" property for the target suite in dep11-config.yml15:16
desrttrmsu: i will eat you15:16
trmsueat my beans15:16
desrt*pin drop*15:16
ximionno giraffes, but tiramisu ;-)15:17
trmsuximion: what's the right relative priority for backports?15:18
trmsuproposed < updates < backports?15:18
ximionjup, I think that makes sense15:21
trmsu< updates < security < backports15:21
trmsuactually proposed should be higher than updates15:22
trmsurelease < updates < security < proposed < backports15:22
trmsuprobably15:22
ximionright, proposed beats security and updates15:23
trmsuximion: ok, will be there next time15:35
ximion:-)15:35
ximionif we had versions in AppStream data, we could resolve conflicts by version comparisons...15:36
ximionbut that's likely not a great idea15:36
