thopre01Hi, can someone point me to the procedure to request a package rebuild (from the same source) in an Ubuntu LTS (Ubuntu bionic)?10:52
juliankthopre01: the process is to upload it with increased version number10:55
juliankthere's no difference to any other upload10:56
juliankexcept, if the version does not contain ubuntu, it will be build1 (build2, ..., and so on)10:56
thopre01I see10:58
thopre01How to request such an upload for a universe package then?10:59
thopre01(I am not the maintainer, just one of the upstream developer)10:59
juliankthopre01: what do you want rebuild and why?10:59
thopre01I want the newlib package in Ubuntu bionic rebuild because it was built using an earlier version of gcc-arm-none-eabi than the one currently in bionic and this causes bug LP#176722311:02
juliankUsual procedure for sponsored uploads would be to file a bug, attach a debdiff, and subscribe ubuntu-sponsors. But maybe it's fine to subscribe sponsors for a no-change rebuild?11:02
thopre01Ok, thanks11:02
juliankthopre01: Here it's obviously more complex, as it involves SRU paperwork. If you believe that a rebuild fixes that, write impact, test case, and regression potential sections in that bug, assign it to the correct package11:04
thopre01Ok, on it, thanks juliank!11:05

rbasakjbicha: FYI, patching PHP back to pcre3 seems more difficult than it initially seemed and I don't think it'll be practical.14:36
rbasakSo we'll have to hold on switching to php 7.3 until pcre2 in main is decided.14:36
jbicharbasak: I'm sorry to hear that (ok, I'm honestly a bit happy too 😉 )14:38

seb128bdmurray, hey. The apport autopkgtests seem quite buggy/flakky nowadays, is that a known issue/something you are looking at (e.g https://objectstorage.prodstack4-5.canonical.com/v1/AUTH_77e2ada1e7a84929a74ba3b87153c0ac/autopkgtest-disco/disco/amd64/a/apport/20181215_031628_603b6@/log.gz)14:58
bdmurrayseb128: I think they are failing now because of bug 180850815:27
ubottubug 1808508 in valgrind (Ubuntu) "Valgrind doesn't work in disco [Fatal error at startup: a function redirection which is mandatory for this platform-tool combination cannot be set up.]" [Critical,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/180850815:27
seb128bdmurray, which is being worked on?15:28
bdmurrayseb128: not quite yet15:29
seb128k, thx bdmurray15:29
vorloncjwatson: iucode-tool> hmm indeed, what should be done about this now given that bionic and cosmic both released this way?  Do you think it's worth copying to -updates to update the source component?16:33
vorlonjibel: I am EOY; if you need reviews before then, please escalate to gaughen16:34
cjwatsonvorlon: IMO we can live with it for stable releases but should fix it going forward16:45
jibelvorlon, okay, enjoy EOY break!17:47
Odd_Blokesmoser: Does https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-keyring/+bug/1809027 appropriately capture what we would need for mfdiff?19:02
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1809027 in ubuntu-keyring (Ubuntu) "Make retired Ubuntu keyrings available from the archive" [Undecided,New]19:02
smoserOdd_Bloke: i think that summarizes it well. good job.19:07
smoseri might add that it isn't a "one time only" problem.19:07
smoserat some point 18.04 will also be in such a scenario.19:08
Odd_Blokesmoser: Yep, great point; added.19:09
smoserOdd_Bloke: i guess if we were over engineering things... it might be nice to have that package provide you with a mapping of signing-key to release19:13
