[12:39] <tkamppeter> cups 2.1.3-6 does not make it from proposed to release in Yakkety for several days now. What is the problem.
[12:40] <seb128> tkamppeter, http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/proposed-migration/update_excuses.html
[12:40] <seb128> "Depends: cups krb5 (not considered) "
[12:41] <seb128> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/krb5/1.14.2+dfsg-1 build issue
[12:50] <tkamppeter> seb128, this means that CUPS does not update because krb5 does FTBFS on ppc64el? What can be done here?
[12:50] <seb128> tkamppeter, somebody needs to fix the krb5 build issue
[12:51] <tkamppeter> seb128,  it seems that krb5 is not maintained by us, simply auto-syncing from Debian.
[12:51] <seb128> don't change that statement
[12:51] <seb128> somebody needs to debug/fix the build issue
[12:51] <seb128> that fix can be sent back to debian
[12:52] <seb128> or an ubuntu1 revision can be uploaded
[12:52] <cjwatson> I suspect it's due to -O3
[12:52] <cjwatson> Looks like the sort of thing where the compiler does a bit more uninitialised-variable tracking at higher optimisation levels
[12:53] <cjwatson> Would probably go away at -O2, or somebody could adjust the offending function to pacify the compiler; either way
[12:54] <tkamppeter> ppc64el seems to be some more exotic architecture, so if I would try to change anything this would be pure guesswork, and some core-dev also needs to upload it. Can someone of you perhaps fix it?
[12:55] <tkamppeter> cjwatson, seb128 ^^
[12:55] <cjwatson> I'm not going to
[12:56] <seb128> neither am I, my todolist overflow already without that
[14:17] <LocutusOfBorg> Hi, I still hope somebody can help me in removing a couple of binaries (already removed in Debian)
[14:25] <rbasak> LocutusOfBorg: I can't help (not an AA) but I would just ask if I were you.
[14:27] <LocutusOfBorg> vmtk/powerpc <-- we want the insighttoolkit to be removed from Ubuntu too, and removing vmtk/powerpc allows us to
[14:27] <tkamppeter> cjwatson, seb128: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/krb5/+bug/1592841
[14:27] <LocutusOfBorg> this means also removing src:insighttoolkit
[14:27] <cjwatson> tkamppeter: please untag me
[14:28] <LocutusOfBorg> also vtk, needs some removals too, but it should go (fslview seems the last blocker, and its broken in debian too, so maybe demoting is the way?)
[14:29] <LocutusOfBorg> src:libpng seems blocked only by liquidsoap migration
[14:29] <LocutusOfBorg> but I need help here
[14:29] <LocutusOfBorg> rbasak, I wrote the above a lot of time, I hope somebody will pick them up
[14:33] <tkamppeter> cjwatson, I did not tag you, and if the system has tagged you automatically, where do I see it and how do I remove it?
[14:34] <LocutusOfBorg> tkamppeter, I think he means from irc, highlight
[14:34] <tkamppeter> cjwatson, sorry.
[14:39] <cjwatson> tkamppeter: Yes, I mean please don't highlight me further regarding this bug, because I'm not going to work on it; I was helping you in passing but I have too many other things to do
[14:44] <LocutusOfBorg> tkamppeter, what about providing a patch and subscribing sponsors?
[14:45] <LocutusOfBorg> if you look at e.g. cowdancer, you should have a really similar issue, and similar patch
[14:45] <LocutusOfBorg> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cowdancer/0.80ubuntu1
[14:45] <LocutusOfBorg> you can test a patch, upload in a ppa, and ask for a sponsor
[15:05] <tkamppeter> LocutusOfBorg, I will not be able to test it in a PPA as PPAs only support amd64 and i386 AFAIK, but I can do the same change as was done on cowdancer attach the debdiff to the bug and subscribe sponsors. Will this work?
[15:10] <LocutusOfBorg> tkamppeter, you can test ppa
[15:10] <LocutusOfBorg> just go in options and enable ppc64el
