| eoli3n | Hi | 10:42 |
| eoli3n | when using kickstart with netboot of 16.04, it's not possible to use sfdisk in %pre section | 10:43 |
| eoli3n | if i understand well, problem is that busybox for netboot install have not be compiled with parted fdisk or sfdisk. Problem is that thoses tools are installed by debian-installer before proceding installation. | 10:44 |
| eoli3n | So when %pre is executed, debian-installer has not run yet | 10:44 |
| cjwatson | you can't do that sort of thing in %pre, indeed, but you could do it by using the 'preseed' extension directive to set partman/early_command to the text of a script that calls sfdisk | 10:45 |
| eoli3n | and sfdisk, etc are not present. is there any way to get sfdisk working in %pre section of a kickstart installation ? | 10:45 |
| eoli3n | cjwatson: i did | 10:46 |
| cjwatson | since partman/early_command runs somewhat later, just before the partitioner starts | 10:46 |
| eoli3n | ahhhh EARLY ! | 10:46 |
| eoli3n | i didn't found it, lets try | 10:46 |
| eoli3n | lets try : http://sprunge.us/eRHH | 10:47 |
| cjwatson | I am not sure that a file name will work there. | 10:49 |
| cjwatson | Checking. | 10:49 |
| eoli3n | cjwatson: you're a god... i'm fighting with kickstart since 5 days... | 10:49 |
| eoli3n | it worked | 10:49 |
| cjwatson | Oh, yeah, I guess it will, it'll be passed to sh -c and that'll exec it. | 10:50 |
| cjwatson | Excellent | 10:50 |
| eoli3n | i did set shebang in script | 10:50 |
| eoli3n | lets go eating, maybe i will come get a bit more help later | 10:51 |
| eoli3n | thx a lot cjwatson | 10:51 |

| sil2100 | coreycb: hey! Could you make sure LP: #1731595 is verified? I guess the artful openstack stack would be good to release 'all together', but this one neutron bug is not verified | 11:50 |

| eoli3n | so cjwatson | 12:16 |
| eoli3n | here is my kickstart file : https://ptpb.pw/2fun | 12:16 |
| eoli3n | the early partman command works | 12:16 |
| eoli3n | problem is that installer still prompting for manual partitionning | 12:16 |
| eoli3n | i removed clearpart | 12:17 |
| eoli3n | it seems that when no clearpart --all is set, it keeps prompting | 12:17 |
| cjwatson | eoli3n: I'm not sure I sufficiently understand what your sfdisk thing is for - you're trying to override some limited bit of the installer's partitioning code, I think? | 12:20 |
| eoli3n | cjwatson: i need sfdisk to overwrite the partition table, and let partman use first partition as a windows one, without erasing it | 12:25 |
| eoli3n | it that case | 12:25 |
| eoli3n | if windows is already there, its not broken | 12:25 |
| eoli3n | and if not, partition is initialized | 12:25 |
| eoli3n | is there anyway to perform an automatic installation without setting clearpart --all ? | 12:26 |
| eoli3n | clearpart --linux dont work too | 12:26 |
| eoli3n | doesnt | 12:26 |
| cjwatson | clearpart --all basically just turns into preseeding partman-auto/disk, and without that the automatic partitioner won't run | 12:26 |
| eoli3n | problem is that it initialize a fake partition table to be sure to destroy all datas | 12:27 |
| eoli3n | in redhat documentation | 12:27 |
| cjwatson | I think you need --onpart or --usepart to be implemented in our Kickstart implementation, but they're not | 12:27 |
| eoli3n | ah ok ! | 12:28 |
| eoli3n | it is | 12:28 |
| eoli3n | but i can't mix --onpart, and part | 12:28 |
| eoli3n | maybe | 12:28 |
| cjwatson | --onpart|--usepart|--ondisk|--ondrive|--start|--end) | 12:28 |
| cjwatson | the RH documentation is not necessarily accurate for Ubuntu; we've implemented a compatibility layer | 12:28 |
| cjwatson | # TODO: --ondisk/--ondrive supported with LVM | 12:28 |
| cjwatson | warn "unsupported restriction '$1'" | 12:28 |
| eoli3n | hm, so your point for now, is that i need to write all partition table with sfdiks | 12:28 |
| eoli3n | sfdisk | 12:28 |
| cjwatson | https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/installation-guide/amd64/ch04s06.html#kickstart documents the differences | 12:28 |
| cjwatson | no, I don't think that would work either | 12:29 |
| eoli3n | and use only --onpart | 12:29 |
| cjwatson | no | 12:29 |
| eoli3n | hm | 12:29 |
| cjwatson | --onpart is unimplemented | 12:29 |
| eoli3n | ah ! | 12:29 |
| eoli3n | should i use preseed commands here ? | 12:29 |
| cjwatson | right, I think you'll need to do that | 12:29 |
| cjwatson | figure out the necessary partitioning recipe in preseeding language, and drop down to that | 12:30 |
| eoli3n | cjwatson: where can i read that ubuntu kickstart implementation does not support --onpart ? | 12:30 |
| cjwatson | mm, it's possible the documentation doesn't say that. I implemented all this to start with but I no longer work on it ... | 12:30 |
| eoli3n | ah so i found the right dev, good point | 12:31 |
| cjwatson | I looked it up in the code to refresh my memory | 12:31 |
| eoli3n | i don't know how works preseed, it seems a bit harder | 12:31 |
| eoli3n | ok so lets preseed | 12:31 |

| cjwatson | in particular https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/installation-guide/amd64/apbs04.html#preseed-partman | 12:31 |
| eoli3n | oh thx | 12:31 |
| cjwatson | and you may need to refer to https://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=d-i/debian-installer.git;a=blob;f=doc/devel/partman-auto-recipe.txt;h=bc8b541c59b319147db652f8db01f5c4f427b249;hb=HEAD for detailed recipe syntax | 12:32 |
| cjwatson | I probably can't help very much more. If you still run into trouble you may be able to find other people in #ubuntu-installer who are more current | 12:33 |
| coreycb | sil2100: all set i've marked that bug as verified for artful | 12:33 |
| eoli3n | cjwatson: just something to clarify, if i use partman preseed, must 'clearpart --all' be set for an automatic install ? | 12:56 |
| cjwatson | eoli3n: not if you separately preseed partman-auto/disk | 13:04 |
| michael-vb | Afternoon. | 13:22 |
| michael-vb | apw: I believe that you are in charge of the vbox* guest modules in the Ubuntu kernel packages? | 13:23 |
| michael-vb | I am wondering how easy it would be for you to update the versions in supported Ubuntu distributions. The newer the better of course, but the versions in the current mainline kernel would do too. We had an ABI break after 5.1. | 13:24 |
| cjwatson | eoli3n: oh and also partman-auto/method will probably need to be preseeded to 'regular' | 13:24 |
| cjwatson | sorry, forgot about that bit | 13:24 |
| eoli3n | cj i just did, i'm searching for a way to set vars with dialog installer, then get my recipe string | 13:25 |
| michael-vb | Of course, our upstream/out-of-tree versions might make your life easier, as the code is intended to build on older kernels. They carefully stripped that out of the mainline ones. | 13:25 |
| eoli3n | cjwatson: | 13:25 |
| cjwatson | I don't know what you mean by "set vars with dialog installer" | 13:25 |

| cjwatson | please note that you cannot use the interactive installer to work out a recipe | 13:25 |

| Laney | i.e. it doesn't want to select bionic-proposed's python3 | 16:11 |

| Laney | I can install it if I add python3/bionic-proposed explicitly | 16:13 |

| doko | RAOF: are you uploading things for the mir transition? | 16:34 |
| jbicha | doko: btw, it looks like you'll need to drop some imagemagick -dev pkgs to universe in order to demote src:graphviz | 16:36 |
| doko | jbicha: hmm, where is the dependency? | 16:40 |
| doko | I only see it in B-D-I | 16:40 |
| rbasak | doko: FTR, I'm fine with dropping graphviz if kirkland and dpb1 are happy. | 16:42 |
| doko | ok, let's wait | 16:43 |
| jbicha | doko: libmagickcore-6.q16-dev depends on libgraphviz-dev for instance but there are a few more related ones | 16:46 |
| doko | wondering why ... I'll have a look. there are no b-d's ... | 16:47 |
| dpb1 | rbasak: What does it gain in dropping? | 16:47 |
| dpb1 | doko: any idea why it was in the seed to begin with? seems like a very odd package to be installed by default | 16:48 |
| doko | # libgraphviz-dev, incompatible license against fftw | 16:48 |
| doko | dpb1: no, as others noticed, it's a very old seed | 16:48 |
| rbasak | dpb1: I can only defer that question to doko really. doko: what does it gain in dropping? | 16:50 |
| rbasak | ~ubuntu-server wouldn't have to maintain it once demoted, but I presume there's another reason you're asking? | 16:50 |
| dpb1 | so, take it out of the seed *and* out of main, I guess you are asking | 16:51 |
| jbicha | doko: cool, obsolete dependency then :) | 16:52 |
| rbasak | dpb1: that's correct. Though in theory our team declares what we want to explicitly keep in main as part of our product via the seeds. So from our perspective it's both. Do we need it in our product as a top level item? | 16:52 |
| rbasak | From my POV that's what doko is asking us. | 16:53 |
| jbicha | graphviz showed up in our gtk2 demotion list, also we diverge from Debian because a few graphviz features require universe deps | 16:54 |
| doko | rbasak, dpb1: we still need it as a b-d for packages in main, so if things fail we have to fix it anyway. but we don't officially support it. yes, and one more step towards GTK2 demotion | 16:56 |
| dpb1 | ok, that goal I agree with | 16:57 |

| slangasek | slashd: infinity is out. I can give you general pointers wrt trigger cycles, but I don't know what all we have or haven't done to resolve this in later releases - for that, best to look at the history of the relevant packages, or ask doko or tdaitx | 20:08 |
| slangasek | slashd: basically the main change that fixes trigger cycles is to change them into noawait triggers; those keywords should be enough to let you find details e.g. how to implement in a package, minimum version of dpkg required in order to support them | 20:09 |
| slashd | slangasek, ack will look at this, thanks much it definitely unblock my troubleshoot | 20:10 |

| slangasek | slashd: ok, I couldn't resist digging a little more. the root cause of the removal is ca-certificates-java in xenial Depends: openjdk-7-jre-headless (>= 7~u3-2.1.1~pre1-1) | java7-runtime-headless; java7-runtime-headless is provided by openjdk-8-jre-headless, but this will not cause apt to install openjdk-8-jre-headless on upgrade when openjdk-7-jre-headless is already installed; | 20:22 |
| slangasek | openjdk-7-jre-headless is only available in trusty, and has a dependency chain on an obsolete version of tzdata, so apt forces removal of tzdata-java -> openjdk-7-jre-headless -> ca-certificates-java | 20:22 |
| slangasek | slashd: sruing ca-certificates-java in xenial to explicitly prefer openjdk-8-jre-headless as the first alternative may be sufficient hint to the package manager for this upgrade to work correctly | 20:22 |
| slangasek | the circular trigger dep will still be there, but side-stepped | 20:23 |
