acheronukchrisccoulson: hi. not a moan in the slightest, but a few forum and other places are asking why no Firefox 55 stable updates have been pushed yet. is there a reason I can give?11:58
acheronukoh, there was a 55.0.1 update. that probably delays things a bit12:05
=== Guest81339 is now known as Hirppa
chrisccoulsonacheronuk, yes, it's because there was a 55.0.1 update, and we don't do updates on fridays generally12:35
chrisccoulsonand then I found a crash that needed a rebuild12:35
acheronukchrisccoulson: makes sense. thanks :)12:35

ahasenackapw: hey, around?15:41
ahasenacksru-related15:41
apwahasenack, possibly15:42
ahasenackapw: I got an automated email (looks like) about "[zesty/samba] Increase in crash rate"15:42
ahasenacklink is https://errors.ubuntu.com/?release=Ubuntu%2017.04&package=samba&version=2%3A4.5.8%2Bdfsg-0ubuntu0.17.04.515:42
ahasenackI believe this is not related to the sru15:43
ahasenackthat crash is old, has a bug already, even an upstream one15:43
apwso you would like it re-thingged15:43
ahasenack"Further phasing of this update has been stopped until the errors have either been fixed or determined to not be a result of this Stable Release Update." <-- that :)15:44
ahasenackdpb1: what about getting rid of "check" entirely? Would also have to change .travis.yml15:45
ahasenackis that what you didn't want?15:45
dpb1ahasenack: changed travis and pushed a new copy15:45
ahasenackdpb1: dpkg-buildpackage calls which one?15:46
ahasenack"make", or "make test"? Do you know?15:46
dpb1'make' I think15:46
ahasenackdpb1: change DEFAULT_GOAL to test, and get rid of check?15:47
dpb1k15:47
dpb1ugh15:47
dpb1I don't like setting env vars15:47
ahasenackthat's a magic make var15:48
dpb1keeping the rules file clean feels better15:48
ahasenackwhat do you mean, no change is needed in d/rules15:48
dpb1oh, you mean putting that in the makefile15:48
dpb1I like that even less.15:48
ahasenackthe makefile has that already15:48
ahasenack.DEFAULT_GOAL := check15:49
dpb1hah15:49
apwahasenack, ok re-phased15:49
dpb1that's so unecessary!15:49
dpb1make by default runs first target15:49
dpb1OK ahasenack wait for next15:49
ahasenackI said so15:49
ahasenackbut ack15:49
ahasenackmaybe he found a makefilecheck script somewhere15:49
dpb1just testing15:50
dpb1ahasenack: ok, next rev is pushed15:50
dpb1better?15:50
jbichaLocutusOfBorg: and is dropping boinc from 17.10 going to be a problem?15:51
ahasenackyep15:52
ahasenacklet's wait for travis to finish15:52
ahasenackdpb1: make a d/changelog entry for version 615:52
dpb1really?15:53
ahasenackyes, previous one is 5 right?15:53
dpb1ok, you want a new changelog with every commit?15:54
dpb1it's fine, I'm just checking15:54
ahasenackI think there are two big changes worth mentioning: the updated manpage ("add exit status to manpage") and15:54
ahasenackwell, maybe this shellcheck thing isn't worth it15:54
ahasenacklet me check if there was something else15:54
slangasekkees, mdeslaur, infinity, stgraber: TB 5 minute warning15:55
dpb1ahasenack: ya, let's just land this, then I'll let you do a changelog after15:55
mdeslaurack15:55
ahasenackdpb1: ok15:55
dpb1ahasenack: could use an ubuntu-advantage status16:01
dpb1:)16:01
ahasenackwe sure could16:01
ahasenackfor all?16:01
dpb1ahasenack: ya, I'll put in a gh issue.  I think a summary status and each one with an individual status16:40
dpb1ahasenack: put a few issues in17:17
dpb1ahasenack: looks nice17:17
dpb1manpage++17:17
LocutusOfBorgjbicha, I presume it might be a big problem :)17:43
dpb1ahasenack: I'd say get the non-status issues resolved and it would be worth another SRU20:01
ahasenackdpb1: I had highlighted that problem with trying to enable esm on non-precise during the sru testing20:02
dpb1ahasenack: ya, I saw that20:02
dpb1you think a whitelist is good?20:02
ahasenackhm20:05
ahasenackthe way it is now, if esm is enabled in non-precise, we don't have to do anything20:05
ahasenackit will just work20:05
ahasenackif we have a list, then we need another sru20:05
ahasenackmaybe something smarter could be done20:05

Pharaoh_Atemnacc: you should look at fedpkg for inspiration :)23:51
Pharaoh_Atem(in re "git ubuntu clone" discussion on ML)23:51
Pharaoh_Atemfedpkg is the Fedora Swiss Army Knife of awesome for package maint management23:51
naccPharaoh_Atem: does it do historical imports?23:51
Pharaoh_Atemhttps://www.mankier.com/1/fedpkg23:52
Pharaoh_Atemwhat do you mean by historical imports?23:52
naccPharaoh_Atem: so, no.23:52
naccPharaoh_Atem: meaning the source of a package going back to the beginning of fedora (or as close as possible)23:53
naccPharaoh_Atem: that's why we have so many tags23:53
naccbut I will look at that as a reference for subcommands, etc.23:53
Pharaoh_Atemyes, everything is there23:53
Pharaoh_Atemkeep in mind, we're a top-level distribution23:53
Pharaoh_Atemas opposed to Ubuntu, which deals with both Ubuntu and Debian stuff23:53
naccPharaoh_Atem: right, but I think because someone does their work in fedpkg? or because some runs `fedpkg import <path to srpm`23:54
naccfor each srpm in fedora23:54
Pharaoh_Atemfedpkg import is only for the initial import into Fedora23:54
Pharaoh_Atemeverything else after is direct git things23:54
naccright23:54
Pharaoh_Atemor rather, using all the other fedpkg subcommands23:54
Unit193nacc: Do you use sbuild or pbuilder?23:54
naccthat sounds like a 'do things this way'23:54
naccPharaoh_Atem: we're trying to avoid that :)23:54
nacc(at least for now)23:54
Pharaoh_Atemwell, you *can* use fedpkg import every time23:54
naccUnit193: sbuild23:54
Pharaoh_Atemnothing technically *stops* you23:54
Pharaoh_Atemit works, it's just people don't do that anymore :)23:55
Unit193nacc: Have you run into issues since the 10th with creating i386 build chroots?23:55
Pharaoh_Atemit was more common back when we used CVS for Dist-VCS rather than Git23:55
naccPharaoh_Atem: sure23:55
naccPharaoh_Atem: i think we have slight different goals, in any case23:55
Pharaoh_Atemwell, you're starting at the beginning23:55
Pharaoh_Atemfedpkg was nowhere near as powerful in the beginning times :)23:55
naccUnit193: i've not tried, I can tomorrow to see23:56
Unit193nacc: I'm working with zesty as a host, but just to be sure I bumped debootstrap up too.23:56
Pharaoh_Atemthe original fedpkg was more or less a thin wrapper to make it more manageable to deal with dist-git23:56
Unit193nacc: Thanks.23:56
Pharaoh_Atemnow it does a lot of other things since the initial problem was solved23:56
naccUnit193: ok, i'm on artful, I'lll try first thing23:56
naccUnit193: and let you know23:56
naccPharaoh_Atem: thank you for the pointer, though23:57
Pharaoh_Atemnp23:57
Pharaoh_Atemzyga raves about the awesomeness of fedpkg :)23:57
Pharaoh_AtemI figure if you're going to do a tool like it, base it on something made of awesome23:58
naccwell, i think fedpkg is doing a lot23:58
nacca lot that we are not planning on doing23:58
Pharaoh_Atemsure, not right now23:58
naccwe are not writing an archive management tool23:58
Pharaoh_Atemtrust me when I say that your tool will become that23:58
