[08:56] <mantas-baltix> Hi all
[08:58] <mantas-baltix> How I can help to speed-up inclusion of simple 3 lines patch from Debian to Ubuntu 18.04 LTS? See bug #1781746
[08:58] <mantas-baltix> bug is already fixed in Debian initramfs-tools ver 0.132, just 3 lines patch from Debian, see https://salsa.debian.org/kernel-team/initramfs-tools/commit/312393b0cf1231125eeff3d1a2b6b778a935c21d
[09:08] <seb128> mantas-baltix, hey, subscribing ubuntu-sponsors would be better, but you might want to try to nag someone from foundations team on IRC to review it, e.g xnox or cyphermox or vorlon
[09:09] <seb128> mantas-baltix, you can also tag it rls-bb-incoming for nominating for review on the b serie
[19:09] <johnnyfive> Hello, i'm trying to understand why iucode-tools is in both main and restricted (sources are only in restricted, package is published in main AND restricted). Is this a bug?
[19:15] <mdeslaur> johnnyfive: it used to be in restricted but then we decided that the kernel needed to depends on microcode updates, so it got copied to main
[19:16] <jbicha> the binaries are only in main https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/madison.cgi?package=iucode-tool
[19:18] <johnnyfive> mdeslaur, however the sources are still in restricted? is this going to be changed or kept as-is?
[19:21] <mdeslaur> johnnyfive: I don't know...is that a problem?
[19:22] <mdeslaur> an AA would have to chime in to say why the sources weren't copied
[19:26] <jbicha> johnnyfive: you can file a bug against the package and subscribe ubuntu-archive
[19:27] <johnnyfive> mdeslaur, it's not a problem, just need to account for it if this is intended. AFAIK this breaks the contract of how the repositories are set up. If, however, this is intended and I misunderstand the deb ecosystem, that's fine, I just have to prepare for it.
[19:45] <jbicha> johnnyfive: there are several packages where the source is in main but some binaries are in universe
[20:33] <bdmurray> Does anybody have a better idea to check for fglrx or nvidia than this? https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/ubuntu-release-upgrader/trunk/view/head:/DistUpgrade/xorg_fix_proprietary.py#L106
[20:43] <cjwatson> jbicha: That way round is permitted, but source in universe + binary in main wouldn't be.  I think the situation that johnnyfive has pointed out is a clear bug.
[20:45] <cjwatson> vorlon: ^- looks like you missed a bit in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/iucode-tool/+bug/1738272
[20:45] <cjwatson> (comment #3 shows you moving the binaries but not the source)
[20:49] <bdmurray> cjwatson: he's travelling today
[21:06] <johnnyfive> cjwatson, thanks for the investigation/information
[21:28] <cjwatson> bdmurray: yeah, no rush, it's been like this since bionic :)
