mitya57vorlon: why are you trying to sync python-secretstorage? It is still in main, and jeepney is still in universe.06:49
vorlonmitya57: because I forgot that's why it wasn't synced and it showed up on merges06:49
mitya57Ok06:49
* mitya57 should have mentioned that in changelog06:50
mwhudsonxnox: no idea, sorry09:24
xnoxjuliank:  Saviq is stuck in a boot loop, where something creates Ubuntu entry, points it at grubx64 and mokmanager is not being booted (it did boot once, but he quit it rather than completing it)11:34
Saviqo/ juliank - I can boot, but I have to keep the grub entry, hopefully not default11:35
SaviqAnd yeah somehow there's nothing resembling mokmanager on my system…11:35
SaviqNot sure how to add11:36
xnoxonce booted,11:36
SaviqOr is that what mmx is?11:36
xnoxyes it is11:36
xnoxnot memory test thing =)11:36
xnoxi think in verbose mode you should be able to use efibootmgr to add a new entry and set it as bootnext11:37
xnoxdoko:  server team were already looking at xen mini-transition when i poked them due to auto-tracker detecting it. Also it looks like at https://launchpad.net/~lucaskanashiro/+archive/ubuntu/focal-ruby2.7-transition someone from server team is evaluating ruby2.7 transition.11:38
SaviqI was able to add it in setup, but it's unsigned…11:38
xnoxsounds wrong, because it is signed11:38
xnoxah11:38
xnoxwell11:38
xnoxone needs to make shim boot mmx11:38
SaviqRight :)11:39
xnoxthere was like a magic config file or variables to make shim boot mm, instead of grub11:39
xnoxSaviq:  can you use mokutil11:43
xnoxand like re-roll it with:11:43
xnoxmokutil --disable-validation11:44
xnoxmokutil --enable-validation11:44
xnoxand after the --disable-validaion go through the whole password, reboot, type password flow11:44
xnoxand again after enable-validation?11:44
SaviqTrying11:47
SaviqGot mm to start at least11:48
Saviqxnox: ok that got me through, thanks!11:52
Saviqjuliank, I'd still like to talk to you about what went wrong here, maybe we can fix?11:53
juliankSaviq: sure we can do some digging on Monday12:00
* juliank is out today12:00
Saviqack!12:03
ahasenacktjaalton: hi, around? Got a question about your pkcs11 patch on bind912:23
ahasenackbug #1565392 for reference12:23
ubottubug 1565392 in bind9 (Ubuntu) "[FFE] add support for native pkcs11" [Undecided,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/156539212:23
rbasakCan someone remind me where the script is for email address collection for an election please?12:24
ahasenacktjaalton: is that still needed by freeipa? Debian dropped that in their 9.12.0 package, stating that there "is a better solution with openssl engines"12:24
tjaaltonahasenack: 9.12 reimplemented it in some way, I guess. fedora hasn't moved to it yet12:43
tjaaltonjust like they haven't moved to > jdk812:43
ahasenacktjaalton: but does freeipa need a bind with pkcs11 support?12:43
tjaaltonerr, jdk > 812:43
tjaaltonyes12:43
tjaaltonthen again, it got removed from focal, so12:44
ahasenackand that cannot be achieved via openssl configuration?12:44
ahasenackah, that was my next question12:44
ahasenackfreeipa's state in focal12:44
tjaaltonhaven't decided if the server will be reuploaded12:46
tjaaltondogtag got removed and freeipa with it, but jdk8 will be in focal12:46
tjaaltonso experimental has 9.15, you're going to move to it?12:48
ahasenackno, the package in experimental has too many packaging changes, and looks incomplete12:48
ahasenackit doesn't have devel libraries12:48
ahasenackno s ymbols files12:49
ahasenack(all lib packages were merged into bind9-libs, and no symbols with them)12:49
ahasenackno export version too, afaik12:49
tjaaltonthat was for a reason aiui12:49
tjaaltonbut anyway, maybe best to stick to 9.11.x12:49
ahasenackwell, that's the thing12:49
ahasenackthe upcoming 9.16 is their lts release12:49
tjaaltonheh12:50
ahasenackwe could really benefit from moving to it12:50
tjaaltonyour call12:50
ahasenack9.16 will be released this week or the next12:50
* rbasak finds https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~stefanor/+junk/election-tools/view/head:/voter-addresses.py12:54
Laneythat's the one12:57
tjaaltonahasenack: I'm not going to block the update. apparently it's not an easy task to port bind-dyndb-ldap over12:57
ahasenackah, there's that one12:57
ahasenackI haven't checked it12:58
ahasenackand samba, come to think of it12:58
rbasak147 email addresses for the poll. 28 people are eligible but don't have an email address published that I can use13:16
rbasakSome of them are quite active. What have they done in the past? Asked for a poll manually?13:17
LaneyWe've previously said "if you don't receive a ballot, ask for one" in the CfV mail. I don't remember ever receiving such a request though, so maybe that's not enough?13:18
rbasakIMHO it's sufficient to have emailed u-d-a@13:20
rbasak(with instructions)13:20
rbasakAs long as I don't get inundanted with manual requests. 28 seems rather a lot. But it sounds like that won't be a concern then :)13:20
rbasakinundanted13:21
rbasakMy fingers seem incapable of typing that13:21
rbasakinundated13:21
LaneyIt does sound high for active uploaders, I'd have expected the GPG thingy to have found email addresses from their keys13:22
rbasakI disabled the GPG thingy13:22
rbasakMaybe I shouldn't have13:22
rbasakBut don't we no longer trust SKS keyservers?13:22
LaneyI think it should be OK to query keyserver.u.c with the full fingerprint13:23
Laneygtg have lunch, sorry13:23
rbasakThe code has keyserver.leg.uct.ac.za hardcoded13:24
* rbasak fights through some Python 2 induced UTF-8 goodness13:30
rbasakWith the keyserver support fix, 28 errored goes down to 2.13:35
rbasakThat's much better13:35

rbasak"None of the above" is confusing because it'll appear backwards when people actually vote (on that particular page, "None of the below" would make more sense). What's a better term that doesn't rely on the ordering in which candidates appear?14:01
slashdrbasak, do you have an example so I can see ?14:03
rafaeldtinocodepmod: ERROR: ../libkmod/libkmod.c:515 lookup_builtin_file() could not open builtin file '/var/tmp/mkinitramfs_HAauWM/lib/modules/5.4.0-14-generic/modules.builtin.bin'14:05
rafaeldtinocoare you all getting this ^ for focal as well ?14:05
rafaeldtinoco(during update-initramfs)14:05
rbasakslashd: so a quick Google revealed https://civs.cs.cornell.edu/cgi-bin/vote.pl?id=E_7afed1599f666137&akey=09c624659290123f for instance. Imagine if "None" said "None of the above". Try to vote for two of those, and nothing else.14:05
rbasak(I don't mean that you should actually submit the vote, of course)14:05
rbasakHow about "No further candidates"?14:06
rbasakDebian typically calls it "Further Discussion" but of course that doesn't make sense here.14:07
slashdrbasak, I'm good with "No further candidates"14:07
ddstreetrbasak possibly instead of allowing a vote for 'None' it would be better to clarify voters should use 'no opinion' for anyone they don't want to vote for, e.g. https://civs.cs.cornell.edu/faq.html14:08
ddstreetadding a 'None' candidate just means that if it wins, the DMB will be short 1 member, right?14:08
rbasakddstreet: correct, but multiple people have suggested to me that it will give more credibility to the vote to permit that as an option14:08
rbasakI don't see it happening that "No further candidates" will rank higher than any of the current candidates, but giving the electorate that option does make sense I guess.14:09
slashdddstreet, "no opinion" for me sound I don't care-ish ... while I think the vote should be decisive14:09
ddstreeti hope 'None' doesn't win then, unless that also adjusts the threshhold for quorum :)14:09
rbasakI don't think it'll happen, but if it does, I'll ask the TB to decide what to do.14:10
ddstreetslashd no, the 'no option' is an actual ranking choice in the poll, not a title of something you can vote for14:10
ddstreetthe faq explains it in that first question14:10
slashdhttps://civs.cs.cornell.edu/faq.html14:11
* slashd reading14:11
slashdrbasak, ^^14:11
slashd"Voters often pick “no opinion” when what they mean is that they don't like the choice or that they don't have any information about it."14:12
rbasak*If* we want to give the electorate an option to reject a candidate, then I think a "No further candidates" option makes sense to allow the electorate to positively specify that.14:12
rbasakOn the If, there seems to be consensus from the current DMB that we do what to do that.14:13
rbasakSo I intend to go ahead with "No further candidates" rather than enable the no opinion option.14:13
slashdrbasak, sound good to me14:13
ddstreeti guess this means there are only 8 candidates ;-)14:15
rbasakddstreet: why do you say that?14:20
rbasakddstreet: the FAQ "Setting up a poll" question 3 seems to cover this case.14:20
ddstreetrbasak well i assumed we don't need 'None' option if there are more candidates than open positions14:21
ddstreetbut i suppose 'None' could still win over multiple candidates14:21
rbasakIt could14:21
ddstreetrbasak option 3 is possible but it's different than just a 'None', if 'Unacceptable' won first place, then effectively the voters would have chosen *nobody* to serve on the DMB14:23
ddstreetnot just 1 member short14:23
ddstreetanyway, whatever you think is best14:23
slashdif this case happens we will ask TBD to decide what is the next step ^^^14:24
rbasakddstreet: yes. I think that's intentional. It allows the electorate to decide that everyone is unacceptable, which is a valid position to hold and be reflected in the vote.14:24
rbasakIt doesn't help staff the DMB of course, but if that's what the electorate wants... :)14:24
ddstreetsounds like the entry should be named as suggested then, 'choices ranked below this are unacceptable'14:26
sladenaka  "None of the above", which is always included on Debian votes14:31
sladenso you get a result normally like   Alice, Bob, Charlies, None-of-the-above, Drew, Erin, Francis,14:34
rbasakOK poll created, and announcement sent to u-d-a@14:39
rbasakNow let's see how many mistakes I made :-/14:40
slashdrbasak, thanks for the work on this14:41
slashdrbasak, there is a typo in rafaeldtinoco nickname, but I don't think it's big enough to generate confusion about who he is, ... but prefer to let you know14:42
rbasakThanks14:43
rbasakSorry rafaeldtinoco!14:43
rafaeldtinocolol14:43
rafaeldtinocono problem, i just realized that now14:43
rafaeldtinocothat slashd pointed out14:43
rbasakI'm going to pull https://code.launchpad.net/~stefanor/+junk/election-tools into a git repository inside ~ubuntu-core-dev or similar. I have a bunch of fixes to the script, port to Python 3, etc. Any other choices for a good team?14:45
rafaeldtinocou mean a team to place it ? or a name for a new team ?14:49
rbasakAn existing team to place it14:49
rbasakMaybe even ~ubuntu-dev actually14:49
rafaeldtinoco+1 on ubuntu-dev14:50
rbasakNo reason the electorate can't help maintain the script that helps with their own elections14:50
rafaeldtinocoactually its really transparent =)14:50
sunweaverLocutusOfBorg: temporary issue...15:01
sunweaverLocutusOfBorg: I uploaded mate-common 1.24.0-1 to unstable now. Wimpress will see that it syncs over. Then this should be amended.15:05
Laneyoof15:23
Laneyrbasak: I used NOTB before: https://civs.cs.cornell.edu/cgi-bin/results.pl?id=E_7ce24ee3e589e44015:23
Laneysorry if this is underdocumented, must have escaped my parting brain dump AKA the knowledge base15:23
Laneywould be good to update that while it's fresh :)15:27
Laneywhat a great slate of candidates!15:28
LocutusOfBorgsunweaver, nice!16:10
rafaeldtinocobryce: https://code.launchpad.net/~rafaeldtinoco/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+git/initramfs-tools/+merge/37922216:23
rafaeldtinocou think u can +1 this ? its very easy to reproduce and check (if you have time of course)16:23
brycerafaeldtinoco, alright, coffee first16:23
rafaeldtinocodeal16:23
brycerafaeldtinoco, it's taking me a while to get kvm set up, I don't usually use kvm...  it's coming up with no network and so I can't run update-initramfs -u17:15
brycewell, I mean I can run it, but I can't add the ppa before doing so17:16
ahasenackbryce: tried multipass?17:49
ahasenackor you need more low level access, like tweak qemu's command line?17:49
bryceahasenack, I think I need to set up a bridge network device in NetworkManager17:50
ahasenackthat sounds too complicated to be true17:50
bryceahasenack, I know... :-/17:50
ahasenackif you install libvirt, it creates a virbr0 bridge for you17:50
ahasenacksame if you install multipass, it creates a bridge for you17:50
cpaelzerwhy would you create a bridge yourself - do you need a VM that can be reached from the outside?17:53
cpaelzerbryce: ^^17:53
brycecpaelzer, no, I just need to get a kvm vm that can install a ppa17:54
brycebut I rarely use kvm so the directions I'm googling are confusing17:55
ahasenackeasiest I think is multipass; snap install multipass. multipass launch daily:focal17:56
ahasenackmultipass shell <name-it-gave-you>17:56
bryceahasenack, thanks that worked18:08
ahasenackcool18:08
Saviqw00t18:08
brycerafaeldtinoco, ok, mp looks good, +1 -- https://code.launchpad.net/~rafaeldtinoco/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+git/initramfs-tools/+merge/37922218:15
rafaeldtinocobryce: cool! thx bryce !!18:16
cjwatsonricotz: Shouldn't these new transitional packages in libreoffice (-gtk2 and -kde4) actually depend on the things they're being transitional to?  As it stands it's not clear that they achieve anything19:49
cjwatsonricotz: I'll accept them to get things moving, but they look kind of pointless19:51
=== led_dark_2 is now known as led_dark_1
ahasenackany idea why apr-util has a build-depends on python:any?22:59
ahasenacka grep for "python" in the entire source returns only a d/changelog entry saying that the python b-d was annotated with ":any"23:00
