Laneyi'm alright, been pruning in the garden this morning 🤘08:04
Laneywhat's up08:04
didrocksnice08:04
dufluUmm, wutup Laney?08:05
Laneycertainly not the volume of the clematis08:05
LaneyMUHAHAHAHAHAHAH08:05
willcooke\o/08:06
Laneythose things would invade the house if they could08:06
willcookeI was going to prune the Buddleia the other day, but the internet told me not to until spring08:07
willcookewas a close call, I had the loppers ready to go08:07
Laneyin the spring I discovered that one of them had gone over the back wall and half way along the neighbour's washing line08:07
willcooketrue story08:07
Laneyhah08:07
* duflu does love the electric pruner. And no I won't do yours...08:08
Laneywe don't have space for one of those08:08
Laneymy next acquisition is going to be a few cannas08:08
Laneyfor containers08:09
willcookeGardeners' World had cannas on the other day08:10
Laneyyep08:10
Laneyonly thing I'm worried about is them being nicked08:13
Laneyas I'll have them out the front probably /o\08:13
Laneythat's the south side08:13

Laneyseb128: not me08:25
seb128:(08:25
Laneyto be fair if I wanted to reject it I should have08:25
seb128sorry, I didn't have time to address your comment before it went accepted08:25
seb128I'm not sure how component-mismatch deals with provides08:26
Laneydid it fix the problem?08:26
seb128maybe we could have demoted notification-daemon without change to the recommends?08:26
LaneyI'd have thought so08:26
Laneyrecommending a notification implementation was probably correct08:27
Laneyit's not a very big deal08:27
seb128right08:27
seb128well suggest/recommends, depends how much you think notifications are part of the experience08:27
seb128but yeah08:27
seb128it didn't solve it because update-notifier has a similar Recommends08:27
seb128let me try to demote n-d and see if component-mismatch complains08:27
seb128I'm unsure if there is a "dry" way to try that?08:28
Laneywhere is the problem visible?08:28
Laneyhttps://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/component-mismatches.txt not there08:28
seb128nowhere08:28
seb128notification-daemon is in main08:28
Laneysomeone randomly noticed?08:28
seb128but we believe it should be in universe08:28
seb128it was part of the "has no owner" packages list08:28
Laneyoh ok08:28
seb128foundations worked making sure all packages in main have an owner08:28
Laneywell kick it out imho08:28
seb128right08:29
Laneyand see if it complains, I don't expect it to but we'll know for sure then08:29
seb128just foundations said that rb/u-n needed fixed first08:29
seb128but maybe they are wrong/didn't notice the g-s provide08:29
seb128right08:29
seb128doing that now08:29
Laneyit's easy to overlook those08:29

willcookeI sent my phone away for a new battery.  Before it went I had to install itunes on the windows box to back it up.  So far, so good.  Phone came back yesterday and I had to plug it in to iTunes again to restore the backup.  Only iTunes now won't run.  The machine has done *nothing* since I backed the phone up on Sunday., and suddenly it just doesnt work08:34

willcookeComputers are a silly thing08:35
willcookeThat's the end of Story Time for today08:35
Laneyseb128: c-m is probably right saying that mozjs52 needs demoting btw, not sure if you wanted to do that?08:41
seb128why is that in c-m-proposed only?08:42
seb128oh, it's not08:42
seb128http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/component-mismatches.svg is misleading08:42
Laneythink the svg only shows the other way08:42
seb128right, looks like it08:43
seb128I deleted mozjs38 yesterday btw :)08:43
seb128back to having only 2 mozjs in the archive08:43
seb128Laney, demoting done08:43

* didrocks wants some secondary/third opinions on a dist-upgrade potential issue08:49
didrocksso, end of last week/start of this week, I was able to reliably trigger this state during dist-ugprade (and once done): https://i.imgur.com/rgEy56h.png08:50
didrocksmeaning, GNOME Shell unloading icons, missing entries in the menu and so on08:50
didrocks(until reboot on cosmic)08:50
didrocksbut it seems now that the package order/(low memory related? (I was still at 1Gb)) changed08:50
didrocksand I can't reproduce it anymore08:50
didrocksso unsure if it was the Shell going OOM or package install order triggering a Shell reloading issue08:51
didrocksthere was a way to workaround: asking the Shell to restart after dist-upgrade08:51
didrocksI even have a do-release-upgrade Quirks for this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/jV7sXFgknq/08:51
didrocksbut as ubuntu.css disappears, it's loading default Shell theme (until reboot, again)08:51
didrocksand ofc, only works on Xorg08:52
didrocksunsure if that worthes pushing the patch (worked, I tested it)08:52
seb128didrocks, I read what you wrote but I don't grasp enough what we are talking about to have an opinion08:59
seb128is that cosmic to cosmic updates?08:59
seb128or bionic to cosmic?08:59
didrocksbionic to cosmic08:59
seb128that's pre reboot g-s reload, so it would mean reloading the 3.28 from the bionic session so it picks up yaru dynamically before rebooting?09:00
didrocksno09:00
didrocksso as you can see in https://i.imgur.com/rgEy56h.png09:00
didrockswe could end up in a situation where there are some icons missing09:00
didrocksno more background09:00
didrocksand menu entries empty09:01
didrocks(that's what I can't reproduce anymore)09:01
didrocksone way to workaround it, is to ask G-S to restart after the dist-upgrade09:01
didrocksbut that loads then default Shell theme (upstream one)09:01
didrocksas there is no more ubuntu.css and no pointer to Yaru ofc09:01
didrocksso, I have a patch ready for this09:02
didrocksbut as I can't reproduce it now (seems like the package install order changed since I found issue)09:02
seb128but you didn't have enough record about the missing icons issue to know what it was?09:02
seb128like .desktop renamed?09:02
didrocksI don't know if that worthes it09:02
seb128or g-s js being screwed?09:02
didrockssounds like it's only g-s being screwed as it's not only desktop icons that are missing09:02
didrocks(and blue background and missing entries…)09:03
seb128difficult to say if it's worth it09:03
seb128we got no report so far so I wouldn't say it's high importance09:03
seb128if it's a side effect of oom I wouldn't bother09:03
didrocksno report -> because people don't dist-upgrade yet IMHO09:03
didrocksbut yeah, no data :(09:03
didrocksanyway, we have a patch ready09:03
LaneyI'd leave it too IMHO09:03
didrockslet's keep it somewhere09:03
didrocksand revisit09:03
seb128k, good09:03
seb128sounds good09:04
seb128thx09:04
didrocksjust wanted to have your opinions on it as well :)09:04
Laneygood one to raise09:04
didrocksok, we are all in agreement, good ;)09:04
seb128:)09:04
didrocksthe patch is tested, so if we really need it, it should be quick to push09:04
* didrocks back on gdm now09:05
seb128good luck with gdm09:12
seb128I'm going to do some dist-upgrades tests in the afternoon09:12
seb128jibel, did you test bionic->cosmic upgrades much? if so what's the status for you, did you ever see the bug Didier was just describing?09:13
jibelseb128, not thoroughly. Mostly standard upgrades09:14
seb128went fine?09:14
jibelyes09:14
jibelwhat is the bug?09:14
Laneysame for me09:14
Laneydidrocks described it just above & shared a screenshot09:14
seb128jibel, see recent backlog, basically https://i.imgur.com/rgEy56h.png09:15
jibelnever seen this or a report of a similar issue09:16
willcookejibel, FWIW - Hyper V works fine09:18
jibelgreat09:19
didrockshum, gjs_dumpstack() doesn't give anything… :/09:19
jibeldidrocks, can you report a bug with ubuntu-bug ubuntu-release-upgrader ? it's easier to help and try to understand what happened during the upgrade than reading lines of chat on irc09:22
didrocksjibel: sure (even if the bug isn't really in ubuntu-release-upgrader)09:24
didrockslet me finish current gdm inspection first09:25

Trevinhobut there's probably no other way now11:43
Laney:<11:43
Trevinhoi'm also quite sure that adding some printing makes things slow enough to make it happen less xD11:44

bcurtiswxjbicha: hi! yes it does13:02
bcurtiswxi can go into recovery and it works as expected13:03
jbichaoften that's because you have some gnome-shell extensions that aren't compatible13:03

jbichait was a pain to get xterm out of main14:09
jbichanotification-daemon is still on today's cosmic iso14:10
seb128right, I demoted it this morning to see14:11
seb128L_aney though the gnome-shell Provides might be enough14:11

jbichayeah, demoting xterm was important because I didn't want its .desktop cluttering the Activities Overview14:18
seb128well, notification-daemon is demoted now, it's just reported on component-mismatch (wrongly)14:19
seb128so technically there is no archive problem, just buggy reporting14:19
jbichait's on component mismatches because n-d is still on the iso14:25
jbichaor maybe component-mismatches and germinate do about the same wrong thing :)14:26
seb128I think you have it backward14:28
seb128Source and binary movements to main (unsubscribed)14:29
seb128notification-daemon: notification-daemon14:29
seb128[Reverse-Recommends: libnotify4 (MAIN)]14:29
seb128it's listed because libnotify is on the ISO/main14:29
seb128and recommends n-d14:29
seb128and component-mismatch doesn't understand that a provides matches that requirement14:29
seb128or at least I think that's the pb?14:29
willcookeTrevinho, Laney - dont know if this is related, or just me, but I've just noticed that when i get a working session, I can't switch vts14:32
seb128willcooke, did you try to configure a vpn on a new install to confirm the bug from cyphermox?14:36
seb128cyphermox, did you manage to report the pb upstream btw?14:36
cyphermoxyes, and they provided a patch14:38
cyphermoxLaney says it works, here it doesn't seem to14:38
seb128:(14:38
willcookeseb128, cyphermox was this openvpn?14:41
willcookeor any14:41
seb128cyphermox, do you have the reference to the bug/fix?14:45
seb128Laney, want me to backport a fix so you can be the one reviewing in the queue?14:46

willcookealthough DNS now seems broken14:50
seb128but I can't find the upstream reference14:50
seb128not the discussion on the IRC log of that channel or devel/r-t14:50
seb128shrug, why are those info in the bug :(14:50
seb128not->nor14:50
willcookeTrevinho, correction - I can switch vts but its very very very slow14:59
willcookeand gnome shell is using 100% CPUO15:00
willcooke*CPU15:00
willcookeand xwayland, which is odd15:00
seb128willcooke, well, unping for now about VPN until cyphermox or Laney can shared the bug/commit reference, unsure where they had the discussion I can't find a record15:02
willcookeseb128, I'm trying an openvon now anyway15:03
seb128thx15:03
willcookeI'm also concerned that when I disconnected the PPTP VPN I lost DNS15:03
willcookeffs15:03
willcookejibel, could you help test the vpn situation too? ^15:04
willcookeI can give you PPTP creds if you need some15:04

cyphermox^ but that doesn't allow me to correctly save TLS Auth properties still; so some VPNs just can't work at all15:06
cyphermoxLaney reported it was working for him15:07
cyphermoxso *shrugs*15:07
willcookecyphermox, are you using the Canonical VPN as an example?15:09
cyphermoxyes15:09
willcookehrm15:09
willcookeI think Till had a problem with that too15:09
willcookeI'll email him15:09
seb128cyphermox, thx15:09
seb128willcooke, the pb from Till was another one which we fixed and he confirmed the fix was working15:10
seb128it was a button not getting enabled in g-c-c15:10
willcookeahhh15:10
willcookeright15:10
seb128well, we should get that fix ^ anyway, it's a step in the right direction15:12
willcookeyeah15:12
* Laney shrugs15:12
Laneyif it's buggy seems a bit pointless15:12
Laneythat bug could equally be SRUed15:13
seb128Laney, Mahtieu said it was working for you15:14
Laneybut not him15:14
seb128so it's not pointless, if it makes things work for some :)15:14
Laneyas you wish, you have my opinion on it15:15
seb128we install that plugin by default started this cycle, it feels like a fail if it's not working until you install SRUs15:15
LaneyI don't agree that taking time to SRU properly working fixes is any kind of failure at all15:15
seb128or we should remove the mention from the release note/hope reviewers don't test that feature15:15
Laneybut I think I say something like this every cycle15:15
seb128I'm not arguing that we should land a workaround or bad fix15:16
seb128but if upstream has an obvious invalid-use fix it's still early enough to include it imho15:16
seb128I don't like memory corruptions, and it's still good to have one less15:17
seb128even if that's not the problem Mathieu is having15:17
seb128anyway15:17
seb128that's my position15:17
seb128discussed enough, let's move back to fixing things15:17
seb128thx for the input Laney15:18
willcookecyphermox, how can I debug a DNS issue.  When I disconnect the PPTP VPN DNS stops working.  My guess is that it's still looking at the VPN's DNS15:18
cyphermoxwillcooke: networkctl output, pretty much15:18
willcookenetworkctl says its not running15:19
willcookenmcli shows the dns as the correct one on my LAN15:20
willcookewhat is it on the local machine which is doing DNS lookups?15:25
willcookelike, resolve conf points at 127.0.0.115:25
willcookesystemd-resolve --status shows the correct dns server15:33

oSoMoNkenvandine, can I help with the gnome-calculator issue?16:27
oSoMoNlooking at what the build failure is16:28
kenvandineoSoMoN: probably, I think a backport needs to be updated16:28
kenvandineoSoMoN, jbicha bumped a build requirement in master16:29
kenvandineThe failure is in our automatic build of our git mirror16:30
jbichamy guess is that you just need to build cosmic's gtksourceview4 in your ppa16:30
kenvandineoSoMoN: actually, just turn off the automatic building16:30
jbichaoSoMoN: ^16:30
jbichagood idea :)16:30
kenvandineWe never promote that version anyway16:31
kenvandineWe only promote the tagged versions16:31
oSoMoNack, I turned off the automatic builds16:31
kenvandineThanks16:31
oSoMoNshall I try backporting gtksourceview4 to xenial?16:32
kenvandineI'll need to bump that in the PPA before 3.3216:32
kenvandineoSoMoN, nah... Not right now16:32

Laneywell not quite, 2h45 left17:17
willcookehear that Trevinho?17:18
willcooke;D17:18
Trevinhoyeah :P17:32
willcookeTrevinho, those extra logs any use?17:35
Trevinhowillcooke: mh, still trying to figure out a pattern :/17:37
willcookeTrevinho, did you see my comment about not be able to switch vts earlier?  Looks like xwayland was crashing(?!?) that cause the slow down17:38
Trevinhoyes...17:38
Trevinhothat's when it boots fine, right?17:38
willcookelet me test is again17:38
willcookeok, booted in to a working gdm17:39
Trevinhois it x11 or wayland?17:39
Trevinhoas on x11 ofc there shouln't be that17:39
Trevinho`sudo strings /proc/$(pidof gnome-shell)/environ | grep XDG_SESSION_TYPE` from ssh should give you that17:40
willcookek, thats in Wayland it seems17:41
willcookenow I will try and switch vt17:41
willcookeyup - I can't17:41
willcookehowever, gdm is still responsive17:42
willcookeso maybe that's a feature?17:42
Trevinhoin theory it should stop it and start again on switch17:42
willcookelogged in ok17:42
willcookeswitching back to 117:43
willcookeit starts17:43
willcookebut I can use the usual trick to find out if its x or wayland17:43
willcookesudo strings /proc/$(pidof gnome-shell)/environ | grep XDG_SESSION_TYPE17:43

willcookethats the PS output ^17:45
willcookeI can switch vts fine17:45
willcookeand no xwayland crash17:45
Trevinho`2190` should be there17:45
willcookeso that might have been a red herring17:45
bcurtiswxis it respawning, causing there to appear to be two ?17:46
willcooke$ sudo strings /proc/$(pidof gnome-shell)/environ | grep XDG_SESSION_TYPE17:46
willcookeXDG_SESSION_TYPE=x1117:46
Trevinhomh ok17:46
willcookeah17:46
willcookeit's when I switch to vt1, then vt2 is still running17:46
willcookewhere my session is17:46
willcookewhen I switch back to 2, the proper session, and gdm shuts down again...17:47
willcookethen the strings thing works17:47
Trevinhofor the two failed logs you sent me (both x11 and wayland) you didn't save the journalctl, right?17:47
Trevinhoas you sent me the procs, but not journalctl so not sure what was making it fail17:48
willcookeok, let me fix up a script to do this for me17:48
willcookeand then I will send you a few good and bad logs17:48
Trevinhogood... add both envs and stuff, but even full journalctl please17:49
willcooke"both envs"?17:49
Trevinhosudo strings /proc/$(pgrep -U gdm -x gnome-shell)/environ | grep XDG_SESSION_TYPE17:50
willcookeah right17:50
=== tomreyn_ is now known as tomreyn
Trevinholet me also try if a clean installation here triggers it...17:56
willcookethat pgrep -U gdm ..... isnt returning anything17:56
willcookeI could just look at the pid for gdm3 right?17:56
willcookeoh, ignore17:57
willcookeI undersatnd now17:57
Trevinhoshould be the same that just filter on user, in case there are multiple instances17:58
Trevinhobut shouldn't be an issue in this case as there is only one17:58
willcookeTrevinho, ok, script is working18:03
willcookeI'll do a few boots until I catch at least 3 broken ones18:03
Trevinhok good thanks18:04
Trevinhomh, my udev seems fast enough, can't reproduce this... :(18:12
willcookeSuddenly I cant either18:13
willcooke:)18:13
willcookeok, I'm going to give it the magic "10 more boots and I'll declare it fixed" thing18:16
willcookeok, something different is going on now18:18
willcookebefore I would get the cursor and that was an indication that it was not goiong to work18:18
willcookenow I get the cursor, and a few seconds later the mouse appears and it works18:18
Trevinhoyeah, so as normal...18:22
Trevinhowhile before was like blinking right?18:22
willcookeyeah exactly18:22
Trevinhoas per the retries..18:22
willcooke(I think I might have done an upgrade on this box earlier,.... )18:23
Trevinholaney's patch is already in?18:23
willcookeI wonder18:23
Trevinhoas one thing I noticed was that in the previous logging there where cases where gdm was starting gnome-session when logind wasn't grahical yet. While we should wait for that.18:24
willcookeI'm going to try silly stuff now, like booting without the ethernet cable in18:26
oSoMoNgoing offline for a long week-end, happy final freeze and have a good week-end desktoppers!18:30
willcookeTrevinho, right I'm 20 for no fails18:31
willcookeI think it might be EOD18:32
willcookeBecause tomorrow it will break again18:32
seb128Laney, thx for the vpn upload, sorry about the assignment, cyphermo_x said here that you had tried a patch was resolving the issue for you but not him so I though you had a fix that was confirmed to be working for the issue you reproduced18:41
willcookequestion:  why is the version mentioned in that patch 1.8, when we're shippnig 1.1218:45
willcookeoh18:45
willcookebecuase it's the openvpn bit that is version 1.8 not n-m18:45
willcookethanks me18:45
willcookeI am tired18:46
willcookeRight.  vbox is fixed.  This gdm thing I now can recreate18:46
willcookeI've logged a bug for the pptp dns thing18:46
willcookethe n-m security issue from last night is all OK18:47
willcookeThe screenshots for the new hyper v image are done18:47
willcookefirefox esr notice is going out tomorrow18:48
Trevinhowillcooke: well I really hope it was related to the fact that some pieces where not updated, as a part than waiting what laney already did I wouldn't have much other idea18:48
Trevinhowillcooke: monitor what the scripts output in case18:48
willcookeTrevinho, if it's just me left that can sometimes reproduce it, I think we should probably give up.18:49
willcookeThere are more important things for you to spend your time on than chasing a maybe imaginary bug18:49
willcookeI'll keep trying18:49
willcookebut not today18:49
Trevinhonot imaginary for sure, just quite hard to debug seen the fact there's not a clear pattern, other than waiting udev, as should be done now18:49
willcookeedit: Right.  vbox is fixed.  This gdm thing I now can recreate -< *CAN NOT*18:50
willcookeRemember I was asking about monitors back in July.18:52
willcookeThe one I wanted, the Dell U2414H, was 160 quid, now 205 quid.18:52
willcookegr18:52
TrevinhoI?ve to leave, dinner time. I guess we have still work for quick SRUs18:53
willcookesee you Trevinho18:53
willcookethat'll do for today.  night all19:00
Laneyseb128: no worries, I figured after all since you made me think about it again that I'd try to reproduce in a VM :P19:03
Laneyrecording screencasts is quite fun19:04
LaneyTrevinho: that CanGraphical thing is a red herring, stop thinking about that19:08
Laneythe plymouth fix is indeed19:08
Laneyin19:08
Laneywell, you can verify CanGraphical by putting loginctl show-seat seat0 in ExecStartPre but we already had lots of cases where this was 'yes' and the bug still happened19:09
LaneyI think we got excited because it seemed to be in a similar area, but it's actually not what you're looking for here19:09
TrevinhoLaney: is wrong to set is as start pre. Has to be launched by gnome session. Anyway, will has logs with that (my tool was checking that too). I can show them later19:14
LaneyTrevinho: why?21:57
Laneyyou're speculating that it goes yes -> no in that tiny window?21:57
TrevinhoLaney: see this log https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/j4PMxt24K6/21:59
Trevinhogrep for gpu-paths.desktop[21:59
Trevinhofor checking gpu we need to have the systemd session name up, and use it for taking control if needed, but well... as you can see sometimes it was not ready. that's why wayland not always work. and sometimes the x11 fallback works otherwise doesn't.22:02
Trevinhowhat happened is sometimes uses wayland sometimes x11. sometimes none of them.22:02
