seb128pitti, had a nice w.e/trip to spain? How is Sevilla?09:02
Laneyoh09:02
Laneyforgot it was the sprint!09:02
pittiseb128: haven't seen much of it -- I only landed at 19:30, it was dark and raining cats and dogs09:02
pittibut looking nice this morning09:03
pittiwe'll have a scavenger hunt tomorrow evening, then we can actually see $outside09:03
pittiseb128: and Nuernberg on Saturday was nice too; hung out with Steve and visited the Emperor castle and the christmas market09:03
seb128ah, nice09:03
seb128mulled wine and nice food?09:04
Laneyseb128: no, I was watching tv instead and that finished earlier than 09:00 ;-)09:04
seb128:-)09:04
pittiseb128: we had food in a nice pub, so just the Gluehwein and Gluehbier on the market :)09:04
seb128Gluehbier?09:05
seb128like warm beer?09:05
pittiyes, with spices; surprisingly good09:06
desrtwe have this here too09:06
desrti was... afraid09:06
seb128I wouldn't dare trying09:06
desrtwillcooke: good morning :)09:06

seb128warm and beer that doesn't work09:06
desrtthanks for the +109:06
seb128hey desrt09:06
desrtmorning seb :)09:06
seb128looks like those Bluehbier are not even German, they import it from Belgium09:08
seb128"The fruits and spices found in Glühbier are one of the biggest reasons it is so hard to find in Germany. Technically, German brewers can't even make it. They adhere to the German Beer Purity Law, which states beer may only consist of malt, hops, yeast, and water."09:10
desrtlol.  yay for european free trade09:10
desrtprobably explains why it's so easy to find around here.. .pretty quick trip across the border09:11

hikikohey :) question: any tricks to accelerate the build apart from distcc that accelerates it but not so much as I'd like it too... :)10:59
hikikowhat do you do when you have to build huge projects?10:59
popeyif I am building over and over again I use ccache11:01
popeyalso, build on someone elses faster computer :)11:01
hikikolike a build server?11:02
hikikotried ccache and distcc it does accelerate it but not that much11:02
hikikono miracles :)11:04
popeyccache is only really useful if you repeatedly build something11:04
popeyalso, I use PPAs or remote VPSs for big things I don't want to bog my laptop down with11:05
popeybut yeah, no magic bullets11:05
hikikoyeah the build server needs about the same time according to qengho11:06
hikiko1hr or so for a clean build11:06
hikikoso I guess, I'll just switch tasks in the meantime or: https://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/compiling.png11:07

seb128hey Trevinho, how are you? had a good w.e?12:52
LaneyTrevinho: do you have an election now or just a new PM?12:53
seb128Laney, done for n-b-d-u12:53
Laneythanks <312:53
Laneymay this hell end12:54
Trevinhoseb128: hey... Well it was good, then sad because of the referendum results... It's just incredibile how people wants change, then when they can get it, they just protest again.12:56
TrevinhoLaney: hard to say yet... The president has to decide. He's not obliged, but it will be hard to find a majority in parliament now12:57
TrevinhoSo... Probably some interim government, then elections12:58
seb128they don't want that sort of change12:58
seb128they want somebody to throw the table12:58
seb128seems like it's a time where people are just angry and take any opportunity to vote against anything coming from etablished political groups12:59
TrevinhoYeah... But this vortex won't ever end. Since at some point, everybody has to become "the power" to attack.13:03
seb128well it might13:04
seb128I don't know much how it is in italy13:04
seb128but for countries which alternate between the same 2 parties all the time the people got used to share the power and it looks like they don't feel like they need to keep honest, they are just spoiled13:05
seb128having a few elections like the Trump one might bring them back to reality and to realize they need to get work done and work for the country, just don't keep doing nice random void speeches and blaming the ones currently in charge waiting their turn at the next election to change nothing13:06
TrevinhoWell, we never had a single-color government for years, so... It's also that...13:18
Trevinhopeople doesn't really likes compromises, thus the actual democracy.13:21
seb128not sure about that, but they don't like that politics keep saying things until they are elected and not do anything of what they said then13:25

ubot5Ubuntu bug 1592721 in network-manager (Ubuntu Xenial) "Don't write search domains to resolv.conf in the case of split DNS" [Medium,Fix released]16:19
seb128cyphermox, and yeah, happyaron is maintaining it but that SRU has your name and pitti's on it so I'm going with the principle of "who is creating a regression is owning it", especially whoever is doing a change has more context on the change and it makes sense for them to follow up rather than asking to somebody else to try to understand what has been done and why to try to figure out the issue then16:20
cyphermoxI don't know that my name is on that, pitti has been driving the DNS resolution magic16:21
cyphermoxthat doesn't mean that I won't look, just that I don't have much context16:21

seb128cyphermox, oh well, thanks, going to check with pitti what's going on then and why he wrote your name in there16:22
cyphermoxthat's a very old patch16:22
seb128well it was added in the SRU creating the regression16:22
seb128see http://launchpadlibrarian.net/286824187/network-manager_1.2.2-0ubuntu0.16.04.1_1.2.2-0ubuntu0.16.04.2.diff.gz16:22
cyphermoxreally? because seems like it was in before that, IIRC16:22
cyphermoxoh16:22
cyphermoxnevermind16:22
cyphermoxthat's unlikely to be the cause for the regression16:22
cyphermox(in fact, it should be *fixing* such issues, except not some other similar problems)16:23
seb128cyphermox, #1633003 states16:23
seb128"After downloading version 1.2.2-0ubuntu0.16.04.1 copies of libnm-glib-vpn1:amd64 libnm-glib4:amd64 libnm-util2:amd64 libnm0:amd64 network-manager:amd64 and installing them via: sudo -H dpkg -i *.deb my name resolution started working again."16:23
cyphermoxas above, this is a complicated matter, and people in general don't understand how VPNs and split tunnelling in the first place16:23
seb128cyphermox, reading #1633874 it seems the user just connect to a vpn configured with the gui and add a dns in the corresponding config tab16:25
seb128cyphermox, http://neartalk.com/ss/2016-10-16_001_601x625.png16:25
cyphermoxlike I said, that's not how VPNs work16:25
cyphermoxsplit tunnelling isn't that simple16:25
cyphermox(and given dnsmasq, it's explicitly not running things in order of appearance)16:26
seb128can you maybe add a comment on #1633874 saying that?16:28
cyphermoxhum16:28
seb128the user has been doing quite some work16:28
cyphermoxin this context I suppose it *is* a kind of regression16:28
cyphermoxI'm looking at the code to figure out what's the best course of action16:28
seb128cyphermox, sorry to bother you, I just crossed that bug and the user has been downgrading is machine, trying in fresh vms, downgrading packages etc to try to find the issue so it would be nice to give him some ack so he doesn't feel ignored16:31
seb128cyphermox, thanks! :-)16:31
seb128cyphermox, also was that patch upstreamed? there is no bugzilla reference16:31
cyphermoxit might not have been, I'm not sure.16:33
cyphermoxmaybe only on the ML16:33

cyphermoxwell, I already know about the latter, stgraber and I were discussing that in the airport this weekend :)16:41
seb128k, I assumed there would be some direct discussions about it ;-)16:41
cyphermoxseb128: it's a very complicated issue in general, and we've been moving in the right direction to making things work, but all of it needs still lots more love.17:02
cyphermoxtbf though, the patch you pointed to is quite unlikely to be the culprit (after I've reviewed it thoroughly). I think it's a problem with another patch I may or may not have written that may or may not have gone away with a merge, from the look of things17:03
cyphermoxbut even then, it wouldn't apply anymore since NM reorganized a bunch of that code17:03
* cyphermox is ripping his hair out)17:03
cyphermoxI updated the bug and I'll wait for people to add more information17:04
