willcookemorning all07:42
didrocksmorning willcooke07:43
willcookeuser support question:  I had to install php on my server lat night, but it turns out that I need php5, which isn't in Bionic07:43
willcookeso I found a ppa07:43
willcookeBut first I have to uninstall all the php7 stuff07:43
willcookeif I apt remove php, it leaves behind loads of other bits and bobs07:43
willcookehow do I easily remove all of those?07:44
* didrocks urges to tell "user questions -> #ubuntu" and then remember in extremis that willcooke is his boss of his boss :p phew!07:44
didrocksI guess apt autoremove --purge gives nothing?07:45
willcookeI know, total abuse of power :)07:45
didrocksisn't it? ;)07:45
didrocks(and also… first… php???)07:45
willcookeIKR07:45
willcookeit makes me sad07:45
didrocksI hope it does :p07:45
didrocksso autoremove -> nothing?07:45
willcookeso yeah, autoremove doesn't do anything07:45
willcookeI was thinking apt remove php*07:45
didrocksI guess it's part of the default server install, so mark as installed manually…07:46
didrockshum, well… you will miss libphp*07:46
didrocksand maybe others07:46
* willcooke considers reinstalling 07:46
seb128hey willcooke07:47
didrocksI wonder with tasksel07:47
seb128willcooke, "I need php5" sounds like the part you need to revisit :)07:47
didrockswillcooke: you did install php7.2 manually or was that part of the base install?07:47
didrocksbecause if you did that at some point, you can look at your apt installer logs07:48
didrocksand see the list, then remove, ensuring it doesn't remove php507:48
didrocksseb128: I would say the same nowdays, but even without the 5 ;)07:48
didrocksor have you installed lamp-server tasks directly, which pulled php 7.2?07:49
willcookeseb128, lol07:49
willcookeI just apt installed it07:49
didrocksah, good then07:49
didrockslook at the logs07:49
didrocks/var/log/apt/history.log07:49
didrockssearch from the line where you installed php, and you have the line of things to remove07:50
didrocksensuring it doesn't remove php5 ofc07:50
willcookekk07:50
willcookethanks didrocks07:50
didrocksyw!07:50
didrocksremember that you those are size limited07:50
didrocksand then rolled out in history.log.1.gz, history.log.2.gz…07:50
LaneyHEY!08:02
didrockshey Laney08:05
seb128hey Laney, how are you?08:11
Laneymy laptop's doing something weird08:14
* Laney is on the PC now08:14
Laneyi'm alright thanks!08:14
Laneyah Xwayland crashed08:18
seb128:/08:19
Laneyhmm no this is weird, that happened much later08:20
Laneyand logind and loads of other stuff died too08:20

willcookeis new windows opening at the bottom of the stack a bug or a feature?08:34
willcookee.g. I very often get the message that such-and-such is ready, but the window never opens at the top08:35
willcookeso I have to go and find it08:35
seb128depends what you are doing08:38
seb128if you are typing it might be the focus-stealing-prevention08:38
willcookeah, could be08:38
willcookeI'll watch and see08:38
seb128thx08:38
willcooke(it's bloody annoying)08:38
seb128is that always with the same app?08:38
seb128also how do you open the thing that goes to the bg?08:39
willcookeno, different ones08:39
willcookeoh, it /could/ be that they are snaps08:39
seb128is that always when started from a command line?08:39
willcookeI'll get some data08:39
seb128thx08:39
willcookeIn other news... "search domains" has been removed from settings and in to nm-connection-editor08:39
seb128I don't think I ever used a search domain08:41
willcookewhich is probably why they removed it08:41
seb128or is that the way to specify a DNS server?08:41
willcookenah, it's if your local dns server expects FQDN08:41
willcookei.e. I can't ping "mycomputername"08:42
willcookebut I can ping "mycomputername.mydomain"08:42
seb128.local? ;)08:42
willcooke.local is evil08:42
willcooke:)08:42

willcookenm-connection-editor does the job, I guess things will gradually migrate in to settings over time08:46
seb128right, it they belive it to be useful to "common" users08:49
seb128let's see08:49
* Laney is figuring out gdm bit by bit11:24
Laneyit's like untangling a bowl of spaghetti11:24
* xnox pictures Laney tossing a bowl of spaghetti against a whiteboard to see what sticks, for it to simply start hovering in the air in the same of a moster11:25
Laneyit's a tasty metaphor11:25
willcooke:)11:27
seb128speaking of which, I saw that you and Trevinho have been working hard on the refcount/failed login issue11:28
seb128Laney, is that the one you are looking atm, or doing the systemd session thing?11:29
Laneysecond one11:29
seb128k11:29
seb128the ref issue seems stalled, who is "owning" it at this point?11:29
Laneywaiting for a review11:29
seb128Trevinho, ^ you commented last, do that require halfline to review next?11:29
seb128is 'needinfo' the right bug status?11:30
seb128also, is he at the performance hackfest? ;)11:30

Laney• started again on systemd --user work, first new task is to figure out how to make GDM work in this scenario, so spending some time studying its code, this is me for the next few weeks13:45
Laney• did a bit of documenting / discussing around the git workflow13:45
Laney• got pinged about a debhelper bug in bionic by Niels, SRUed that13:45
Laney• Followed inf_inity's advice on #1768541 (rls bug) and uploaded a fix, also to cosmic13:45
Laney• autopkgtest - amqp went down which broke most things, worked to recover it. It turns out that we had tons of kernel updates piled up on the system which eventually ran it out of space, at which point rabbitmq was very unhappy. After that I spent some time checking all the other machines weren't going to die in the same way.13:45
Laney∘ rbalint is trying to SRU a new version of unattended-upgrades which autoremoves kernels 👍13:45

willcookeOk, let's go through the bugs which have been tagged for B13:50
willcookeaaaand I've lost the link, Laney do you have it to hand?13:50
willcookeAh,13:50
willcookehttp://reqorts.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/rls-mgr/rls-bb-incoming-bug-tasks.html13:50
Laneyzat iz ze badger13:50
seb128not a lot of tagging happened it seems :/13:51
willcookeHm, I think we have bugs missing for that list13:51
willcookelet's review what is there, and then let's get that list updated13:51
seb128yeah, sorry, I meant to review things but I've just been too busy since yesterday13:51
willcooke1st up:  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cryptsetup/+bug/176572413:51
ubot5Ubuntu bug 1765724 in gnome-shell (Ubuntu) "Xenial -> Bionic - System fails to boot after upgrade - gnome-screensaver & gnome-shell fail to start?" [Undecided,New]13:51
jbichanow that cosmic opened, I just target bugs for bionic directly, so -tracking- instead of -incoming-13:51
Laneythat's OK if you are uploading the fix13:52
Laneyif you want to suggest someone works on it, not so much13:52
willcookeyeah, lets use incoming for now13:53
jbichaTriaged means that someone should feel free to work on it, In Progress means the fix is already in unapproved queue13:53
seb12851 o tracking13:53
seb128DOH13:53
willcookeLet's review that tracking list off line13:53
Laneyoh come on, don't mess around with the process please :/13:54
Laneyanyway, jibel's bug, what do you think?13:54
willcookeIs it a foundations issue?13:54
seb128xnox's asked questions and seemed to be looking at it13:54
seb128also what willcooke said13:54
Laneyno13:54
seb128no?13:54
Laneylook at the tasks, those are invalid13:54
willcookeah13:54
seb128I don't understand why13:55
Laneylooks like he looked at logs and decided it was something on the session side13:55
Laneyif you want to argue, skip considering it?13:55
willcookeneeds more investigation I think, who can look at that?13:56
seb128xnox, could you write on bug #1765724 which you think it's a gnome-shell issue?13:57
ubot5bug 1765724 in gnome-shell (Ubuntu) "Xenial -> Bionic - System fails to boot after upgrade - gnome-screensaver & gnome-shell fail to start?" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/176572413:57
willcookek, we can either talk about that some more here in a mo, or come back to it next week13:57
willcookewhat do you want to do about the tracking bugs?  Go through them here and now?13:57
seb128I would remove it from the list at this point13:57
seb128it's not clear it's an important issue13:57
willcookeseb128, let's see what x_nox says and then Ill tidy it up13:58
seb128it has no other reporters/duplicates13:58
seb128k13:58
seb128it's impossible to clean the tracking list13:58
seb128that's a mix of SRU uploaded and other things13:58
seb128we should really gate the review on -incoming13:58
seb128jbicha, ^ please stick to the defined process13:58
jbichawhere is this defined13:59
xnoxseb128, in a call now; will do in a bit.13:59
seb128xnox, thx13:59
willcookeok, so for next week let's get the bugs we know about and are working on tagged so that we can review them next time13:59
seb128jbicha, that's a fair point, but not an useful reply at the same time13:59
jbichafor instance, is there anything wrong with how I filed bug 1769637 except for the part where I didn't get around to actually uploading to bionic?13:59
ubot5bug 1769637 in evolution-data-server (Ubuntu Bionic) "Update evolution-data-server to 3.28.2" [Low,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/176963713:59
willcookelets talk process after the meeting14:00
seb128no, and if you are working on it the nomination is fine14:00
seb128k14:00
jbichaI don't think I need to ask permission first before targeting to bionic…14:00
LaneyIf you want to work on it, you can assign it to yourself14:00
LaneyI don't think there's anything wrong with nominating in that situation14:00
willcookeanything else meeting wise?14:00
seb128#aob?14:00
Laneybut for things that other people are going to work on, use incoming14:00
jbichawhat if I'm not working on it like bug 1768555?14:00

Laneyuse incoming, and we can decide to assign someone or not14:00
seb128Laney, you wrote " • did a bit of documenting / discussing around the git workflow"14:01
LaneyI did14:01
seb128I know you wrote about that on the hub, but might be worth sharing the URL here?14:01
Laneyto the hub post?14:01
jbichaok, I can do that but I'm pretty sure that's a difference process than we had been using for SRUs, anyway, I can adapt to change :)14:01
seb128or the wiki you used14:01
Laneyhttps://community.ubuntu.com/t/desktop-deb-packages-migration-to-git/5746/414:02
seb128thx14:02
Laneydoes that go to a specific post?14:02
seb128just making it easy for people to go and read it :)14:02

seb128jbicha, I +1ed to use them for universe14:03
seb128if nobody objects I think we should just do it14:03
jbichaeveryone else fine with that?14:03
Laneydidn't we want to try to reduce the iso size?14:03
seb128good point14:04
seb128let me have a look to the size diff14:04
seb128I believe that most of those .mo are small14:04
Laneyit's probably not that much in this case14:04
Laneybut you know...14:04
Laneys/this/each/14:04
seb128right14:04
seb128and we probably don't patch those apps14:04
seb128at least not to add Ubuntu specific strings14:05
jbicharight14:05
seb128jbicha, do you have a list of packages we are talking about?14:05
jbichaI think the idea was for all "apps" in Debian GNOME unless you had a reason to be more selective14:06
seb128bah, I'm undecided now :p14:07
jbichaok, let's defer to later then14:07
kenvandine:)14:07
seb128I'm going to have a look to the size we are talking about for next week14:07
willcookethanks seb12814:07
seb128let's decide then14:07
seb128yw14:07
seb128other things I had a question about14:07
Laneyit's just weird to be taking stuff out with one hand and putting things in with the other14:07
seb128right14:08
seb128Robert had that line " - Attended GNOME Stakeholders meeting"14:08
seb128does anyone know what stackeholder/meeting that is?14:08
seb128and what is discussed in those meetings?14:08
willcookeThe one on Monday nights14:08
seb128is that an upstream/downstream thing?14:08
kenvandineProbably GNOME Software14:09
willcookeit's a desktop, store, advocatory meeting14:09

kenvandineyes14:09
willcookeyes14:09
seb128k, nevermind me then14:09
willcooke:)14:09
seb128I though it was talking to upstream14:09
seb128the title was misleading14:09
seb128"GNOME stakeholders"14:09
seb128that was all from me14:10
willcookeanyone else?14:10
xnoxseb128, right, i remember that now. Have we managed to reproduce this? It would be nice to e.g. use willcooke's laptop on which we implemented "rim & reboot" to e.g. install home-encrypted install using e.g. 16.04.4 iso; upgrade to bionic; and check that it still works fine.14:10
willcookexnox, I can do testing14:10
xnoxseb128, the actual bug report there is messy. and it is not clear if "ecryptfs /home xenial -> bionic" is busted for everyone, or just that weird machine.14:10
seb128willcooke, let's wrap the meeting and discuss that boot issue?14:10
willcookeack14:10
xnoxoh sorry.14:10

willcookexnox, np, we needed to end anyway14:11
seb128xnox, jibel reported the bug14:11
xnoxright14:11
seb128jibel, is that easy to reproduce or did you hit the case with a specific install?14:11
xnoxseb128, so it's probably for realz....14:11
xnoxthere is tiny amount of hope it is jibel-only able to discover races =)14:12
xnoxi believe i did retest this, and it did work fine for me, but for me the passwords were matching between login & end system. I guess i can retry with non-matching passwords too14:13
jbichaseb128: actually for bug 1768555, it's fixed for cosmic so the normal way is to actually nominate it for bionic14:13
ubot5bug 1768555 in gnome-calendar (Ubuntu) "Update gnome-calendar to 3.28.2" [Low,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/176855514:13
seb128xnox, in any case, what made you believe the issue is due to gnome-shell? that package has nothing to do with boot nor init14:13
jbichaif we just add a tag to a Fix Released bug, no one will see it14:13
seb128xnox, k, let us know if you need more details14:14
xnoxseb128, reading the logs, there was a lot of failures, none of which were about ecryptfs. E.g. things failing over themself.14:14
xnoxseb128, and i did retest ecryptfs-alone, and it went fine for me.14:14
seb128k, well I guess we need to provide a more detailled way to trigger the issue then14:15
seb128jibel, ^ can you do that?14:15
xnoxseb128, as in during dist-upgrade things failed to connect to the X server. failing to talk over dbus to org.gnome stuff, logind sessions dissapearing, just genenuely all the things collapsing =/ it did not look like a healthy, nor successful fully completed upgrade.14:16
xnoxwhich may be also a bug in itself....14:16
* xnox ponders if there was non-English locale involved14:17
seb128ah, that could be14:17
seb128in session upgrades "fun"14:18
xnoxseb128, this bug report is very much "untrianged" still.14:18
seb128willcooke, sounds like we should untag to me, unless we can provide clear steps that reproduce the issue and which sound like they could hit normal user in their upgrade14:18
seb128xnox, ^14:19
seb128jbicha, right, which whoever does the SRU can do when they upload14:20
jbichaseb128: that would mean there is no tracking at all for these bugs that are fixed in cosmic but not in bionic. What problem exactly are you trying to solve here?14:22
seb128jbicha, willcooke, Laney, looks like foundations also have a lot of unassigned bugs on their -tracking page, it's probably worth having a discussion with them about when we expect that workflow to work for SRUs14:22
seb128jbicha, the same as we do pre-release, having a way for people to propose things to targets and be able to accept/deny them14:23
Laneywe could decide to treat unassigned bugs on tracking the same as incoming14:23
jbichaI think a lot of potential SRUs are just whether someone feels like doing the work, not that we reject many of them14:23
Laneywe want a way to prioritise and track bug work, this is what we're using14:24
jbichaso maybe I just need to assign myself to SRUs that I am actually working on14:24
Laneymakes sense14:24
seb128that would be useful14:24
willcookeseb128, I'm going to set up a regular meeting with Foundations.  I'll get that sorted today14:24
seb128willcooke, ah, right, thx :)14:24

seb128& travelling14:28
jbichaseb128: ok, I'm thinking about doing the g-c-c SRU without that bug then14:29
seb128jbicha, please don't, I just updated the bug to be SRU compliant14:30
seb128jbicha, did the code change that much since 3.28 than you can't figure out how to rebase the patch?14:30
seb128jbicha, in any case andyrock should be back online tomorrow, so wait until there to see if he can do the rebase14:31
jbichalol, I can totally wait until tomorrow :)14:31
jbichaI wasn't able to duplicate that crash btw with the test case14:33
seb128it's a race, so depends if you are lucky or not14:34
oSoMoNkenvandine, https://github.com/ubuntu/snapcraft-desktop-helpers/commit/f07d125e3ba4d1175ab8f4615e453a933e2fffa7 caused a regression in the chromium snap: bug #177138516:21

greybackkenvandine: I'm not sure why, as I read the previous code, fontconfig was reading the file from the snap that has incorrect paths to fonts, not the generated file with correct paths20:26
