wxl@tsimonq2: how's bisecting the kernel panic coming along?01:34
guiverc2i'm not getting a response from lubuntu.me; this is known I assume01:36
wxlyeah01:37
wxl@kc2bez: your cala is finally uploaded01:39
lubot<kc2bez> \o/01:42
lubot<kc2bez> Thanks wxl01:42
wxlnow hopefully the darn thing builds unlike lubuntu-default-settings ugh01:42
lubot<kc2bez> It built for me. It has been building in stable CI for a while too.01:43
lubot<kc2bez> I'll keep an eye on it though.01:44
wxlyeah well settings did for me too ugh01:44
lubot<kc2bez> :(01:44
wxlis settings in CI?01:44
wxli wonder if it built there01:44
lubot<kc2bez> CI ?01:45
lubot<tsimonq2> @wxl [<wxl> @tsimonq2: how's bisecting the kernel panic coming along?], I haven't been able to set my machine down for long enough to keep it going, but it's started01:45
lubot<kc2bez> Not sure if it didn't build.01:45
wxlcala looks to have built in everywhere that matters XD01:56
lubot<kc2bez> Nice! That adds the refactored language selection wxl01:58
wxldoesn't look like default settings is part of ci02:02
lubot<tsimonq2> I haven't written native packages into the tooling yet02:02
lubot<tsimonq2> Totally possible, you just have to manually configure the job02:02
wxli wonder if i shouldn't just try to rebuild it02:06
lubot<tsimonq2> Huh?02:06
wxldefault settings02:06
wxlas i said, if i build it twice i have the problem. maybe if i build it twice on the infra it won't XD02:07
lubot<tsimonq2> Stahp02:08
lubot<tsimonq2> Hold on02:08
lubot<tsimonq2> That implies Dirty Tricks are afoot02:08
lubot<tsimonq2> Hmmmmmmm02:08

tsimonq2Roll back to exactly the version in Git, and `debuild -S -d -sa`02:26
tsimonq2Don't build it first.02:26
tsimonq2That will at least restore the po files.02:26

lubot<tsimonq2> It looks right, just want to make sure it's 100% it20:51
TJ-tsimonq2: not tested; but logically it all matches. I have no idea how to even go about working with calameres!20:52
lubot<tsimonq2> ok :)20:52
lubot<tsimonq2> Let's try it, heh.20:52
TJ-tsimonq2: I could check on those dpkg-divert's and wrap them to prove it if you want20:52
* TJ- is confident due to the README calling out Debian installs specifically20:53
lubot<tsimonq2> Sure. For reference TJ-, you can test that change by editing `/etc/calamares/settings.conf` and (re)starting Calamares20:53

-lugito:#lubuntu-devel- [Needs Review] Move the initramfs module down past the bootloader.: https://phab.lubuntu.me/D1421:09
lubot<tsimonq2> I don't quite have the bandwidth at the moment to test and upload.21:10
TJ-tsimonq2: I cannot see your change which I assume is to address this calamares issue, but I'm pretty certain it won't be sufficient based on my investigation so far. I'm just about to test a fix that should work, though21:11
lubot<tsimonq2> ok21:12
lubot<tsimonq2> Now you can see it :)21:20
TJ-tsimonq2: no, that won't solve it. Reason: currently "packages" removes the live-* packages (and others, more of that later) so 'packages' needs to be before the initramfs modules BUT 'packages' includes removal of calameres itself, which removes the /etc/calamares/ directory which causes it to fail because the initramfs module/conf is then missing.21:23
TJ-tsimonq2: !! so !! what I'm testing is creating a new id "remove_calamares" with "module: packages" "config: remove_calamares", reordering the initramfs* after "packages" and then adding "remove_calamares" after those. Then, I've removed calamares* from modules/packages.conf and put it alone in modules/remove_calamares.conf 21:25
lubot<tsimonq2> Nice work!21:25
lubot<tsimonq2> Do you have an account on Phabricator to be able to propose your changes after they're done?21:26
lubot<tsimonq2> phab.lubuntu.me21:26
TJ-tsimonq2: unfortunately I don't think I've quite got the hang of calamares because on re-running the installed it complains it cannot find remove_calamares - i thought that was due to there not being a module of that name but the "id: remove_calamares" ought to work21:26
TJ-tsimonq2: no I don't21:26
lubot<tsimonq2> Can I get a pastebin of the current settings.conf you have?21:27
TJ-tsimonq2: I'll try to get a diff; I'm working in a serial console of the VM to do this21:28

lubot<tsimonq2> ack22:14
TJ-tsimonq2: OK, I've found the problem. From that README warning I presume one of the live-* packages does a dpkg-divert of /ust/sbin/update-initramfs ... those packages get purged, but they've left being the diversion and do the file actually is a shell script that does nothing22:16
TJ-echo "update-initramfs is disabled since running on read-only media"22:16
TJ-tsimonq2: OK... so there are no live-* packages installed, so that diversion is coming from somewhere else22:19
lubot<tsimonq2> That's always confused me, because you're exactly right22:20
TJ-tsimonq2: ahhh... it's coming from the squashfs itself, since it is copied across!22:23
TJ-tsimonq2: so all we need is a one-liner shell callout to remove the diversion before calling the initramfs job22:24

lubot<kc2bez> Scrolling through I think you are right wxl23:12

TJ-wxl: Yes23:14
wxli'm going to have to play with the serial console on the vm. that's a cool idea i've never bothered with.23:14
lubot<kc2bez> Same here. Thanks for your help btw TJ23:14
TJ-wxl: at boot time, hit the syslinux F6 to edit the boot command, hit Esc to dismiss the sub-menu and edit the command line directly. Towards the end you need to add options either side of the "---"  so it looks like: "console=ttyS0 console=tty0 --- console=ttyS0 console=tty0" then hit Enter to boot23:15
wxlnice!23:16
TJ-wxl: the reason for repeating either side of "---" is: those before it are used for the live boot, those after are added to the *installed* system's kernel via GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX in /etc/default/grub23:16
wxllearning something new.. alright!23:17
TJ-console=ttyS0 comes first because that is the one the kernel will expect input from; tty0 will be read-only23:17
TJ-if you're using libvirt/virt-manager GUI, the View > Text Consoles menu will take you to the serial consoles. You may need to tap a key to wake the guest up to draw a login: prompt there23:18

TJ-you don't really need it for this though; from the live just do "apt install openssh-server" and then connect via SSH from host to guest23:21
TJ-serial console is handy for working in the initramfs (when it works!) and being able to copy/paste text23:23
TJ-grr, no wonder I couldn't find the emails... procmail filter on .*ubuntu was moving lubuntu@ to a folder I wasn't checking!23:27
wxloops23:28
TJ-wow, looks like I've been totally wrong! It isn't a fake update-initramfs at all, it is perfectly fine, but it isn't finding any installed kernels!23:37
TJ-that was not what I was expecting23:37
TJ-if so, it looks like a problem in initramfs-tools itself23:37
wxlthis is such a bizarre situation. it just sort of cropped up out of nowhere. no changes to calamares or settings or anything. it certainly, to me suggests some sort of core issue23:44
