[00:13] <jamie_1> hey is it possible to flash a daily build and then have it update as things are changed? or well update daily if i wanted to do it that much?
[00:14] <Jordan_U> jamie_1: Just install then regularly update with apt.
[00:14] <jamie_1> Jordan_U: really lol
[00:15] <jamie_1> couldnt have just told me that simple answer over in #ubuntu XD
[00:15] <jamie_1> and yea sorry *install not flash... i work on mobile so im used to flashing images not installing them
[00:15] <Jordan_U> jamie_1: Yup. Often times updates will fail to install, and even more often updates will just break things, but that's a development release for you :)
[00:16] <jamie_1> Jordan_U: ah i can live with that, also i know how to revert updates if they break anything major i use
[00:18] <jamie_1> Jordan_U: the only thing i really do is mobile dev... so most of the stuff i use isnt managed by cononical so it doesnt change often. only thing i do use is make which i have to revert to 3.81 anyways so its not like that will change... 3.81 will always be 3.81
[07:51] <lordievader> Good morning.
[11:08] <seek__> hey ChanServ or Drone` can i have your help for a sec
[11:09] <k1l_> seek__: #ubuntu-ops if you have an issue with the ubuntu channels. #freenode if you have an issue with the freenode irc network at all
[11:09] <seek__> thank you
[11:35] <CDFOS123> Hi all , Will Unity 8 be shipped within ubuntu 16.10 ISO image ? or we'll have to install the session manually as in 16.04 ?(NOT asking about weather it will be the default or not ))
[11:36] <k1l_> CDFOS123: if its not standard desktop you need to install it. and i guess it will be the same as on 16.04 where you can install it by installing a package
[11:38] <CDFOS123> That's sad :'(  i thought that we will have it pre-installed tho ..
[11:41] <k1l_> i dont understand where the issue is in installing one metapackage.
[16:14] <SuperLag> Bash-on-Ubuntu-on-Windows... is there a channel for that, by chance?
[16:15] <dax> #ubuntu-on-windows
[16:18] <DJones> Nice, didn't know about that channel
[16:32] <dax> It's a tiny channel we used to partition off questions mainly from #ubuntu
[16:33] <dax> I idle in it and use WSL, and the instructions for setting it up are in /topic there, so yeah
[16:33] <dax> current user count is 12
[21:27] <nacc> is it just me, or does the python-magic magic.py file have a syntax error for python2(.7) -- str(r, 'utf-8'). That seems to be a python3 change.
[21:37] <trism> nacc: looking at the file, it looks like it is fine, it is in a try block, the comments indicate they are trying to work it for python3 first then it falls back
[21:38] <nacc> trism: hrm, try block? on 16.10 here, /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/magic.py's Magic::buffer() method looks like: http://paste.ubuntu.com/22230868/
[21:39] <trism> nacc: ah that's new, yeah looks like they forgot one
[21:39] <nacc> trism: it's how the whole file is
[21:39] <nacc> if/else (not try/catch)
[21:48] <nacc> trism: looks like upstream fixed this in 5.26 and then a commit went in later that reverted just the str() behavior; asking upstream
[21:54] <trism> nacc: yeah, it may still be correct, it is hard to say without know what the lib is doing internally (maybe it always returns a str in python2 so the python3 str syntax is never called)
[21:57] <nacc> trism: yeah, i mean, i got an error (TypeError) from lp-attach in that code :)
[21:57] <nacc> hence my asking
[21:59] <trism> nacc: ahh I notice https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=828833 which seems related
[21:59] <trism> nacc: may have been what broke it
[22:01] <trism> nacc: oh looks like I'm already behind you I see your comment on the upstream linked fix, sorry
[22:01] <nacc> trism: thanks for the pointer!
