| mwhudson | oh um i guess i should do some live server installer testing | 08:05 |
| mwhudson | although some enterprising soul has apparently done it | 08:07 |
| LocutusOfBorg | seb128, good morning, what do you think wrt merging alsa-utils? a crash fix is always nice :) | 11:56 |
| seb128 | LocutusOfBorg, I was waiting for them to upload 1.1.8, it's prepared in salsa for more than a week | 11:57 |
| LocutusOfBorg | oh... I wondered if they were going, but freeze is coming | 11:58 |
| LocutusOfBorg | so, they will probably not upload it | 11:58 |
| LocutusOfBorg | (or not in unstable) | 11:58 |
| seb128 | k, well we want that version in disco | 11:58 |
| seb128 | I can do the merge/upload | 11:59 |
| LocutusOfBorg | thanks for caring :) | 11:59 |
| seb128 | thx for pointing out why they are probably not uploading :) | 11:59 |
| seb128 | yw! | 11:59 |
| LocutusOfBorg | right now the freeze for buster is ongoing, so the outstanding merges can be done easily | 11:59 |
| LocutusOfBorg | I'm trying to clean up the 130 php merges | 11:59 |
| LocutusOfBorg | :( | 12:00 |

| vorlon | cjwatson: (repeating on more appropriate channel) peeked at your approach to the ucf change; AIUI the result of this is that if the user has tried to dpkg-reconfigure and change a setting through debconf, the new value will be ignored | 17:12 |
| cjwatson | (answered on #ubuntu-meeting, didn't see this until later) | 17:14 |
| vorlon | cjwatson: I don't have a script for it (is there any reusable code for a script-driven debconf frontend?), but I can confirm that with grub-pc 2.02+dfsg1-10, dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc, change the value of GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX, there is no ucf prompt and also the change does not land in /etc/default/grub | 21:35 |
| cjwatson | vorlon: OK. I could try to do something about it, but I'm not very convinced that I care about supporting that method of changing the GRUB config; the filesystem has primacy. Do you have a specific use case for doing that? | 23:32 |
| cjwatson | Aside from preseeding, I think that anything that's trying to change the config that way has better and more robust alternatives available | 23:35 |
| rbasak | I'm not sure what you're talking about exactly, but I'm hopeful you're talking about fixing bug 1747464 and bug 1812752 :) | 23:53 |
| ubottu | bug 1747464 in cloud-images "Regression: users are prompted on upgrade of cloud images" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1747464 | 23:53 |
| ubottu | bug 1812752 in grub2 (Ubuntu) "UX: changing GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT in /etc/default/grub has no effect in cloud images" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1812752 | 23:53 |
| cjwatson | rbasak: I already fixed the first in Debian and am trying to persuade vorlon to take my fix rather than doing other fragile stuff :) | 23:55 |
| rbasak | Thanks :) | 23:56 |
| cjwatson | rbasak: I'm not especially convinced about changing the latter - it could easily end up making the logic even more complicated and therefore worse | 23:56 |
| rbasak | I admit I don't have any suggestions on how to actually fix the second one cleanly | 23:57 |
| cjwatson | rbasak: Well, ifthis is specifically menu.lst, it's probably a variation of the same problem but not directly fixed by what I did in Debian | 23:57 |
| cjwatson | (for the first one) | 23:58 |
| cjwatson | Looks v similar though | 23:58 |
| cjwatson | rbasak: maybe this cloudimg thing should just be appending to or otherwise modifying the variable rather than overwriting it wholesale? | 23:59 |
| cjwatson | I haven't looked at exactly what it's changing | 23:59 |
| rbasak | Would that work? Ie. can it realy on the previous definition? | 23:59 |
| rbasak | Does /etc/default/grub need to define it by default? | 23:59 |
