jamespagecoreycb: dealing with the cmake foobar in queens-proposed now (we need a newer version for debhelper compat 11)09:24
ahasenackrbasak or cpaelzer, hi, could one of you please (re)import ubuntu-advantage-tools into git? I think it's out of date there12:28
rbasakLooking12:29
rbasakImporting12:30
ahasenackthx12:30
rbasakahasenack: it's still running but didn't seem to take anything new12:32
rbasakahasenack: https://code.launchpad.net/~usd-import-team/+git lists it as updated just now.12:33
rbasakahasenack: did we just race the importer?12:33
rbasakOr did cpaelzer just do it?12:33
ahasenackrbasak: anyway, it looks fine now12:33
ahasenackbut odd that we would have raced the importer, since there were no new uploads in weeks12:34
rbasakYou're right12:34
rbasakPerhaps we raced cpaelzer :-)12:34
ahasenackor maybe I missed a --force in my previous pull12:34
ahasenackthanks anyway12:34
rbasakIt's definitely just been pushed to12:34
ahasenackrbasak: I'm getting a debian/patches warning with this repo: https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/26529688/12:46
ahasenackrbasak: to my knowledge there shouldn't be such a directory (it's a native package), much less an empty one12:46
cpaelzerahasenack: rbasak: I didn't import it12:46
cpaelzernot in a racy manner at least, maybe weeks ago but not today12:46
ahasenackit exists here, though: https://git.launchpad.net/~usd-import-team/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-advantage-tools/tree/debian/patches12:46
coreycbjamespage: oh that's a pita12:52
ahasenackrbasak: cpaelzer: there is something wrong with my MP to ubuntu-advantage-tools (https://code.launchpad.net/~ahasenack/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-advantage-tools/+git/ubuntu-advantage-tools/+merge/337213), I could use some assistance13:17
ahasenackfyi the diff is showing "new" files like debian/rules (!)13:17
ahasenackor debian/tests/control13:17
ahasenackbut they exist already in the git repo, branch ubuntu/devel (https://git.launchpad.net/~usd-import-team/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-advantage-tools/tree/debian/tests/control)13:17
slashdhow one can test a partman-partioning patch using a PPA ? So far I have tried to build partman-partitioning and then d-i within the same PPA and redirect the installer to my PPA using "apt-setup/overlay ..." but without success.13:18
ahasenackslashd: maybe you need to create a new iso. I know simpoir has done that to test a landscape-client patch for a bug that happened inside the ubuntu server install, he might have scripts to help doing that13:20
slashdahasenack, tks will ping him13:21
rbasakahasenack: I don't follow what's going on there either.13:23
rbasakMaybe a Launchpad bug or oddity?13:23
rbasak#launchpad might be the place to ask13:24
ahasenackok13:24
cpaelzerahasenack: I don't see d/rules as new file13:26
cpaelzerahasenack: maybe it was an artifact while still updating the diff?13:26
ahasenackcpaelzer: in launchpad?13:26
cpaelzeryes13:27
cpaelzeron https://code.launchpad.net/~ahasenack/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-advantage-tools/+git/ubuntu-advantage-tools/+merge/33721313:27
cpaelzerI thought that was what you linked13:27
cpaelzer... yes it was13:27
ahasenackI just reloaded13:27
cpaelzer3 hits for debian/rules - all ok13:27
ahasenackit's still showing, for examplple, debian/rules (+6/-0)13:27
rbasakI see preview diff c05adda into ae690c9 on 2018-02-0613:27
rbasakLine 11713:27
cpaelzersame preview hashes13:27

jamespagecoreycb: I think its a straight backport - just waiting for the arm arch to build and will re-test ceph13:27
coreycbjamespage: that'd be nice13:28
cpaelzernot for me13:29
cpaelzerah well now I see13:29
cpaelzeryeah the header is null vs d/rules13:29
cpaelzerbut the content is just fine13:29
ahasenackbut it's treated as a new file13:29
cpaelzeror is that just that small of a d/rules13:29
ahasenackall lines are new13:29
cpaelzerchecking the actual mp13:29
cpaelzerjust a sec13:29
ahasenackthat's the whole d/rules13:29
cpaelzeroh I see13:29
ahasenackthe only diff should be in the flake8 line13:30
ahasenackfrom: flake8 tests13:30
ahasenackto: python3 /usr/bin/flake8 tests13:30
ahasenackand that's what you see if you do "git diff ubuntu/devel" while on my branch13:31
cpaelzeryeah I checked git diff c05adda ae690c9 -- debian/rules13:31
ahasenackgit diff bionic-version-14..ubuntu/devel -- debian/rules13:32
ahasenackshows the correct thing13:32
cpaelzeryep13:32
cpaelzerwhich are the names for the hashes I used13:32
ahasenackeven better13:32
cpaelzerbut also the same hashes that LP displays13:32
cpaelzerodd13:32
coreycbjamespage: i'm fixing up heat-dashboard to include the js files13:33
cpaelzerahasenack: do you mind submitting the same in a new branch name?13:33
cpaelzerahasenack: to see if it is reproducible13:33
ahasenackbasically git checkout -b new-name; git push ?13:34
ahasenackand make a new mp?13:34
cpaelzeryep13:34
ahasenackok13:34
cpaelzerwe could also use resubmit proposal, but I'd keep the broken one for later analysis by LP team13:34
ahasenacksame thing13:35
ahasenackhttps://code.launchpad.net/~ahasenack/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-advantage-tools/+git/ubuntu-advantage-tools/+merge/33721513:35
ahasenackdiff is updating still, but the "31 files modified" again shows debian/rules as a new file13:35
cpaelzerI refreshed and see it - same problem13:36
ahasenackI'll delete it13:36
jamespagecoreycb: I need todo some sort of bootstrap dance for networking-bagpipe/bgpvpn right?14:40
coreycbjamespage: yes. i wasn't sure if i should upload directly to -proposed so i didn't touch that.14:40
Odd_Blokecpaelzer: Thanks for that vagrant review!  I'll look at it soon.14:40
coreycbjamespage: if you upload 8.0.0~b3-0ubuntu1 of both first, then you'll be able to upload the latest versions once those publish14:41
cpaelzerOdd_Bloke: y14:42
cpaelzery14:42
cpaelzerdamn14:42
cpaelzeryw14:42
jamespagecoreycb: ok - I'll delete current versions and direct upload to -proposed14:42
cpaelzerIRC stutter14:42
coreycbjamespage: ok thanks14:42
Odd_Blokecpaelzer: Hah, I hadn't nominated it for series because I didn't think I could; turns out I can!14:47
cpaelzeruse your powers Odd_Bloke14:48
Odd_Blokecpaelzer: So I went for ubuntu1 because ubuntu0.1 suggests a security fix to me; more than happy to change it, just explaining my thought process. :)14:52
Odd_BlokeBut I couldn't quite decide (and eventually just went with what dep3changelog produced. :p)14:52
cpaelzerI knew14:53
cpaelzerOdd_Bloke: the format it creates for the LP ref is unique14:53
cpaelzerso one can see that it was dep3changelog14:53
cpaelzer:-)14:53
cpaelzerOdd_Bloke: force pusher :-P15:07
cpaelzerOdd_Bloke: reviewed the new code and acked15:19
cpaelzerOdd_Bloke: added a hint to reuse on the SRU template15:19
cpaelzerOdd_Bloke: do you need me to sponsor this?15:20
cpaelzerI assume you are in ubuntu-cloud-uploaders, so I guess not15:21
jamespagecoreycb: ah15:36
jamespagepython-sphinxcontrib.blockdiag (>= 1.5.4), python-sphinxcontrib.seqdiag (>= 0.8.4)15:36
coreycbjamespage: gah, what's that from. that is my fault.15:36
Odd_Blokecpaelzer: :)  I _think_ I'm fine.15:36
coreycbjamespage: my handy new tool is too precise ;)15:36
jamespagecoreycb: that was from the networking-bgp/bagpipe stuff15:36
coreycbjamespage: oh i thought i got rid of that15:37
jamespagecoreycb: do I just need to skiptest each one15:38
coreycbjamespage: yes, for the first upload and then they'll be good to run tests next upload15:38
coreycbjamespage: maybe you can just do that with DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS15:39
nacc_coreycb: jamespage: buildl profile?16:27
jamespagenacc_: yeah I was pondering that but don't quite know how to get that to happen in a PPA16:31
nacc_jamespage: yeah there is a way, let me see if i can find it16:34
* jamespage sighs16:34
jamespagecoreycb: I messed up with the versioning...16:34
jamespagefixing now...16:34
nacc_jamespage: oh maybe it was just being discussed as possible (by the LP folks), sorry16:36
nacc_possible to implement16:36
nacc_I just did it "in archive" for PHP by commenting out stuff, then re-adding it16:36
Scott0_im getting uncompression error system halted during both full iso and with the mini using usb17:28
Scott0_memtest shows no errors with memory17:29
Scott0_im not sure where to go from here17:29
Scott0_does it try to uncompress to disk or to memory during install?17:30
TJ-Scott0_: have you verified the image on the USB device is not corrupted?17:30
Scott0_yes17:31
Scott0_I compared to checksum17:31
Scott0_im using rufus to write the usb from iso17:31
Scott0_I assume it does a check before it says its completed17:32
Scott0_maybe a bad assumption :/17:32
Scott0_but I've tried the mini afew times and the regular iso a few times17:32
Scott0_is this just a matter of memory bad or the usb being corrupted?17:33
Scott0_is there a version of the installer that's smaller where I can download packages from the net to complete the install?17:34
Scott0_I read one page that talked about the dvd drive being sda and causing conflict with where ubuntu expected to decompress the image17:35
Scott0_but that seems unlikely17:36
TJ-Whenever I've had a doubt I've generated a hash of the image on the USB device itself to be sure it's not corrupt. If that is fine it suggests there's some I/O errors during reading the device, or as you've suggested, RAM problems17:53
Scott0_yeah I've tried 4 different usb drives17:53
Scott0_and memtest ran for 24h with no errors17:54
Scott0_im gonna try an ubuntu livecd and see if I can get that to install. I read that there is no difference in the server and desktop kernel now17:54
tewardthere isn't in the kernel.  there's difference from the overhead needed to run the system.18:08
teward(GUI is evil!)18:08
Scott0_I know18:08
Scott0_im confused as to why there is even a gui on a server install...18:08
Scott0_that seems silly18:08
teward(there isn't, it's a TUI)18:09
Scott0_tui?18:09
dpb1text user interface!18:09
tewardtext-based user interface.18:09
Scott0_odd I remember it loading a gui a while back for server install18:09
tewardinstead of a graphical user interface.18:09
tewardScott0_: never has had a GUI installer for Server.  GUI is Desktop only.  You *could* run a server via the GUI installer, but...18:10
tewardthe GUI adds headaches.18:10
Scott0_so I could use a desktop livecd to install server?18:10
dpb1Scott0_: it shouldn't be warned, the live image as of today hits this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-cdimage/+bug/174772318:10
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1747723 in Ubuntu CD Images "ubuntu server daily has no subiquity snap, installer does not start" [Undecided,New]18:10
Scott0_can I avoid the gui install?18:10
dpb1Scott0_: but, as long as you are not testing bionic, you will be fine.18:10
tewardScott0_: I would use the server ISO if you want a non-GUI installation prompt18:11
tewardthe desktop ISO and server ISO also install different default packagesets in the OS, mostly GUI and such software instead of the 'bare minimum' needed for servers18:11
Scott0_teward, im having an issue installing from the server iso18:13
Scott0_black screen18:13
Scott0_if I use vga=ask and then continue, I get an uncompression error system halted18:13
Scott0_wow, I tried with the livecd and I still get an uncompression error18:20
tewardsounds like you have a bigger problem than just the ISO used for installing18:20
Scott0_yeah18:20
Scott0_if not memory what else could it be?18:20
Scott0_is it maybe something with ahci?18:21
tewardScott0_: have you confirmed that you have valid ISOs, verifying the sums against known good ones?18:21
Scott0_yes18:22
Scott0_every time18:22
tewardhave you run memtest or something to actually test your RAM to determine if it's bad or not?18:22
tewardi know it sounds like stupid questions, but i arrived late :)18:22
Scott0_yes ran 24h with no errors18:22
Scott0_32BG 4 sticks total18:22
Scott0_the ahci bios does say something on boot about being only for sata and dvd drives18:25
Scott0_would this cause issue with the usb?18:26
Scott0_I have not tried as IDE yet, but I didn't intend to install without ahci18:27
Scott0_nevermind, uncompression error on IDE also :/18:30
Scott0_memtest can load to memory and so can freedos, why can't ubuntu?18:30
=== TJ_Remix is now known as TJ-
Scott0_it could be that every usb disk I write is corrupted19:08
Scott0_what would cause that?19:08
sarnoldusb sticks are notoriously crap19:11
apb1963 ubuntu 16.04...  hostapd exits prematurely.   some details here: https://pastebin.com/GcNS6V4J19:14
nacc_!crosspost | apb196319:15
ubottuapb1963: Please don't ask the same question in multiple Ubuntu channels at the same time. Many helpers are in more than one channel and it's not fair to them or the other people seeking support.19:15
apb1963nacc_, yes... many are... and many aren't.19:15
apb1963nacc_, I was addressing those that aren't.19:16
nacc_apb1963: so ... ignoring the faq.19:16
apb1963nacc_, I'm curious... how old are you?19:17
nacc_apb1963: why does that matter?19:17
nacc_apb1963: please stay ontopic19:17
apb1963nacc_, just curious if your attitude can be attributed to your age.19:17
nacc_apb1963: i'm not sure what attitude you have a problem with. You crossposted a question, which we try to discourage, and I pointed you to the reasoning not to do that.19:20
apb1963You mean because of the overwhelming number of questions being asked here?  The tremendous activity?19:22
nacc_apb1963: no, and that's not the reason cited in the faq.19:22
sarnoldbecause it's annoying as hell to work with someone in one channel while they're getting different advice in another channel.19:23
apb1963sarnold, And if I were getting advice in another channel... I wouldn't ask in a second one.19:23
nacc_!patience | apb196319:24
ubottuapb1963: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or https://ubuntuforums.org or https://askubuntu.com/19:24
nacc_apb1963: so one or both of those FAQs apply.19:24
apb1963I didn't repeat it, I asked it elsewhere.19:24
nacc_apb1963: you asked in #ubuntu19:24
apb1963yes... yes I did.19:24
nacc_apb1963: then rather than wait for an answer there, you posted in a *different* channel19:24
nacc_apb1963: so you were both impatient and crossposted.19:25
apb1963I waited long enough to see that nobody was going to respond in a reasonable period of time.19:25
nacc_apb1963: 6 minutes?19:25
apb1963yep19:25
apb1963I should wait for hours?  Days?  What is acceptable to you oh king?19:26
nacc_apb1963: alright, I hope you have a nice day.19:26
apb1963you too19:26
Scott0_teward: when writing to the usb with passmarks imageUSB, I did receive errors on writing to the usb and numerous failures on the verify operation20:17
Scott0_teward: im gonna try a new usb with imageUSB and ubuntu server and see if I have better luck20:18
Scott0_odd that rufus doesn't do verification after the write20:20
Scott0_success!20:30
