pittixnox, slangasek: Ian reverted my commit to Debian's sysvinit to keep the package in sync (https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/sysvinit.git/commit/?id=6ac609340af1), so the current zesty-proposed version brings back all the old cruft07:40
pittixnox, slangasek: can you please remove it? remove-package in chroot complains with "Unable to find the server at api.launchpad.net" for me right now07:41

fossfreedom_seb128: hi - when you have a mo' please can I ask you to review the merge request for the gnome-menu patch we discussed on Friday last.  Cheers.  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-menus/+bug/163174511:03

cult-xnox: do you have any planned time schedule for odb of xenial?12:07
xnoxcult-, no. it is not that urgent. even though it does affect your systems =/12:13
cult-xnox: is there anything i can do for it?12:13
xnoxnot really, no change uploads need to be prepared and uploaded. and one needs upload rights for that.12:14
cult-you mentioned that there's paperwork too for lts?12:14
xnoxcorrect, i believe i have already filled all the boiler plate in the bug report description.12:15
melodiehi12:23
melodieI am using a Xenial install and being on a light system, trying to find a way to disable at-spi2. I don't find. There is no service for it so I can't use systemctl, and update-rc.d does not work anymore. If I remove the package it wants to pull off Evolution, which I need. What would be the best move? Create a service? Or ask the packager of Evolution to mark at-spi2 as optional?12:25
seb128fossfreedom_, hey, yes it's on my list, glad that we converged toward a real fix and not a workaround12:42

seb128melodie, hey, what's the issue with at-spi? you might be able to turn off some bits in the a11y u-c-c settings12:43
ilmaisinxnox: did you get till's mail about the cups sru?12:56
ilmaisinxnox: if you ae in hurry i can maybe help with the paperwork if someone will sponsor the update13:00
ilmaisinxnox: as it got little more important as it was noticed that on some systems cups will shut down even with shared printers13:03

xnoxilmaisin, cups did not affect anybody at all. It only affected systems running -proposed, which no human should be doing.13:21
xnoxilmaisin, the fix is in the sru queue, and pending review by ~ubuntu-sru team, which i'm not part of13:21
xnoxilmaisin, also cups sru is available from a ppa, linked on the bug reprot13:21
xnoxilmaisin, also cups sru is available from a ppa, linked on the bug report13:21
ilmaisinxnox: in my last message about cups shutdown i meant the bug 1598300, not the bug 1642966 that is in testing, but they are interwoven that the fix to former depends on the fix to the later one13:32

tjaaltondoko: mesa 17.0.0 was released, I'll switch it to use llvm-4.0 instead of 3.914:02

dokoahh, ok14:03
tjaaltonit'll be backported to xenial later14:03

xnoxtedg_, is cgmanager needed for systemd-ubuntu-app-launch?17:00
tedg_xnox: No it is not17:00
tedg_Which makes UAL a lot faster too :-)17:00
xnoxtedg_, you need click to launch clicks?17:00
tedg_xnox: Yes, and for our click hooks in the package.17:01
xnoxtedg_, is the C library libubuntu-app-launch upstart only?!17:27
xnoxwell the ubuntu-app-launch.cpp part of it?17:27
* xnox guess it's not quite C library but C/C++17:27
tedg_xnox: Yeah, the C code is basically a wrapper on the C++ stuff so that current users don't have to switch.17:28
=== infinity_ is now known as infinity
xnoxtedg_, do you support launching clicks, under systemd? and in that case shouldn't one be launching (click?!) helpers with systemd?17:35
tedg_xnox: Yes, because they'll become snap helpers soon.17:36
tedg_xnox: Once all the interface hooks stuff lands in snapd.17:36
xnoxtedg_, but i see that helpers are only launched with upstart, in libubuntu-app-launch/ubuntu-app-launch.cpp and ripping that out, appears to be breaking the ABI as well.17:39
* xnox pretends that return FALSE; is not good enough here.17:39
tedg_xnox: Yes, that's part of what I'm doing to remove Upstart, is have helpers use the jobs objects, which take care of that.17:40
xnoxtedg_, right, so i can't really rip out build dep on upstart just yet, as that will break things =(17:41
xnoxbugger17:41
tedg_xnox: Yes, we were discussing plans in #ubuntu-desktop this morning. We're gonna work to remove Upstart.17:42

nacctarpman: would you be able to look at some of the autopkgtest failures from the openldap merge in http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/proposed-migration/update_excuses.html#openldap ?18:09
tarpmannacc: looking18:23
nacctarpman: thanks! i think libreoffice is unrelated (as the version in excuses is triggering the same failure on itself), dogtag-pki is probably also not related18:26
tarpmannacc: dovecot one looks like some kind of TLS error? ssl.SSLEOFError: EOF occurred in violation of protocol (_ssl.c:720)18:27
nacctarpman: yeah18:27
tarpmanno idea about libaws really but also doesn't look particularly ldap related :\18:27
nacctarpman: yeah and it's odd that it is passing on a few and not on a few, i'll dig into that one18:28
tarpmannacc: do you happen to know whether the testbeds have anything installed a typical sbuild chroot wouldn't? e.g. ubuntu-minimal18:53
nacctarpman: off the top of my head, sadly, no19:25
nacctarpman: fwiw, the libaws regression is unrelated, i'm pretty sure -- it's also happening for libaws itself, as well on those archs19:27
naccjgrimm: --^ FYI, openldap merge is done, but stuck in proposed while we figure out the tests19:27
tarpmannacc: but they need to be fixed for openldap to migrate, related or not, right?19:27
nacctarpman: right, but the fix might not be in opendldap (e.g., i think the libaws ones needs rebuilds of specific packages)19:28
jgrimmnacc, ack19:28
=== elmo_ is now known as elmo
melodieseb128 still here?19:32
nacctarpman: e.g., looking through excuses, i think all of the ada related packages are in 'regression' status for the same reason19:33
melodieseb128 my issue is about having the hand on the management of services and processes, which I don't have, because systemd-ui does not provide any kind of management19:33
melodieseb128 in Trusty it has been possible to disable the launch of at-spi2 and therefore a11y which is launched by dbus, using update-rc.d, but in Xenial with systemd there is no service written for this feature, so it's started for no reason as I don't  need it, and I can't remove it because it's tied to Evolution, which I do need.19:35
melodieI thought maybe I could somehow tweak the behavior in apt conf as the Arch users do with the pacman.conf file for their package manager, but I found no clue about that in the man of apt or apt.conf …19:36
tarpmannacc: ack. currently looking at dogtag-pki, but only here for a little longer19:36
nacctarpman: if I absolutely had to guess, that one is also unrelated19:37
nacctarpman: as we have very similar regressions across other source packages19:38
tarpmansure, but a better chance of being within my power to do something about :)19:38
jbichamelodie: what's the problem with at-spi2 running?19:41
melodiejbicha resource19:50
melodiejbicha I tend to eliminate any process which is of no use in my system, so I'd like to be able to manage the processes the way I feel fit19:51
jbichayou could try cp /etc/xdg/autostart/at-spi-dbus-bus.desktop ~/.config/autostart/  and then add Hidden=true to that file in ~/.config/autostart19:52
melodiejbicha I will try that, thank you19:52
jbichabut Ubuntu intentionally does not make it easy to disable autostart files in the default install since disabling them often causes more harm than good19:53
melodieshould I comment "NoDisplay=true" before using the Hidden feature?19:54
melodiejbicha perhaps the person who manages the package Evolution could mark at-spi2 as "recommands" and not as hard dependency?19:55
melodiequitting the session and coming back to test19:57
sarnoldmelodie: if you just want to uninstall the thing, there's a package that lets you build a package with nothing in it, that serves only to make apt happy19:57
sarnoldsigh19:57
jbichamelodie: from what I can see, it's not a hard dependency of Evolution; it's a hard dependency of gtk320:01
sarnoldmelodie: if you just want to uninstall the thing, there's a package that lets you build a package with nothing in it, that serves only to make apt happy20:02
sarnoldsadly I still haven't figured out the name of the package20:02
melodiejbicha strange20:02
Laneysarnold: equivs20:02
melodiejbicha because when I try to remove the package it wants to remove Evolution specifically20:02
sarnoldLaney: that's the one! thanks :D20:03
sarnoldmelodie: maybe the 'equivs' package can help you20:03
jbichamelodie: it probably wants to remove everything gtk3 on your system!20:03
melodiejbicha I don't think so20:03
jbichathe package that has that autostart is at-spi2-core: https://packages.debian.org/sid/amd64/at-spi2-core/filelist20:04
melodiejbicha and?20:05
jbichanever mind, it's a different related pkg that gtk3 depends on20:05
melodietried what you suggested it didn't work20:06
LaneyYou probably want to discuss this in a support channel20:06
melodieLaney it would be better if someone in the dev team could tell me if a service file would help have the hand on it20:07
melodieI'm not used to write any of these service files, but if I have to to be able to manage the service I might try to give it a go20:07
melodiethen I could share it with other people20:08
LaneyXDG autostart files can be overridden in your home directory20:08
melodieLaney that's what jbicha suggested but it didn't work20:08
melodiehttp://paste.ubuntu.com/23990496/20:09
dobeyor by using an environment which doesn't do xdg autostart20:09
melodiedobey a20:09
melodiewhat about having a service file which allows people to manage their services the way they like it?20:09
jbichamelodie: there's also systemd user services, at-spi-dbus-bus.service and at-spi-registryd.service20:10
melodiejbicha in this case I try systemctl commands now20:10
* Laney requests that you go to a support channel for 'tweaker' discussions20:10
