| darkxst | jbicha covered under the MRE? | 09:00 |
|---|---|---|
| jbicha | darkxst: https://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2017/05/16/%23ubuntu-devel.html#t09:16 (until 15:16) | 09:02 |
| jbicha | the important part is that the SRUs were accepted | 09:03 |
| darkxst | I meant the kde plasma one | 09:03 |
| jbicha | darkxst: you don't object to us closing gnome-shell/trusty bugs, right? | 09:03 |
| darkxst | from a quick glance I would have queried the first one on the basis of the test case ;) | 09:04 |
| darkxst | so long as they are not rejecting them ;) | 09:04 |
| darkxst | what is the EOL for trusty? April or July? | 09:05 |
| jbicha | April, https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-gnome/2017-March/004211.html | 09:05 |
| darkxst | regardless we are not going to be fixing trusty bugs now | 09:07 |
| darkxst | so yes I am fine with closing trusty bugs | 09:07 |
| darkxst | technicaly gnome updates should be covered under MRE also and not need proper SRU's? | 09:09 |
| jbicha | I think KDE or Kubuntu has some kind of CI/automated testing that GNOME doesn't have? | 09:10 |
| darkxst | or did they can the MRE's in my absence | 09:10 |
| jbicha | but yes, Laney was arguing that GNOME used to have a micro-release exception until SRU policy was rewritten | 09:10 |
| darkxst | CI testing is great for build failures not general user testing | 09:11 |
| darkxst | autopilot never really succeeded totally in the UI testing side | 09:11 |
| darkxst | and its useless on gnome-shell anyway! | 09:11 |
| jbicha | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#New_upstream_microreleases | 09:12 |
| jbicha | (changed in 2015) | 09:12 |
| darkxst | GNOME passes most of those except the last one | 09:13 |
| darkxst | autopkgtest coverage is minimal and only maybe a dozen packages have tests | 09:14 |
| darkxst | I have to pop out for dinner, will be back in a couple of hours | 09:14 |
| jbicha | I think most of GNOME does not really have tests? | 09:15 |
| darkxst | GNOME seem to be back tracking on the "installed tests" that enable autopkgtests | 09:15 |
| darkxst | yeh its a mixed bag when it comes to build time tests, some have very good coverage | 09:16 |
| darkxst | a lot have average/questionable coverage | 09:16 |
| darkxst | and some have minimal | 09:16 |
| darkxst | but certainly build time test coverage is much higher than what autopkgtests can do. | 09:17 |
| darkxst | anyway gtg, will be back | 09:17 |
| jbicha | ok, thanks | 09:17 |
| darkxst | jbicha, back | 11:34 |
