|---|---|---|
| ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 1856539 in linux (Ubuntu) "wireguard package doesn't work on ubuntu eon" [Undecided,Incomplete] | 20:16 |
| zx2c4 | im now directing people toward our PPA | 20:16 |
| zx2c4 | breaking network servers that rely on wireguard for access and then not doing anything about it for lots of days doesnt sit too will with users | 20:16 |

| ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 1862413 in wireguard (Ubuntu Eoan) "wireguard-dkms 0.0.20190913-1ubuntu1: wireguard kernel module failed to build" [Undecided,In progress] | 20:19 |
| apw | zx2c4: indeed | 20:22 |
| zx2c4 | what if you guys bricked people's ethernet cards by accident | 20:23 |
| zx2c4 | and then didnt roll out a fix for a while... | 20:23 |
| zx2c4 | apw: | 20:23 |
| apw | zx2c4: a miss labelling of a tracker let that out, a fix is in play but you moaned it wasn't up to date enough | 20:23 |
| zx2c4 | anyway, im going to start actively recommending people stay far away from ubuntu+wireguard until april | 20:23 |
| zx2c4 | you guys have the ability to trivially bump packages to be up to date easily | 20:23 |
| zx2c4 | no build changes required | 20:24 |
| apw | do what you must | 20:24 |
| zx2c4 | i mean can you blame me? | 20:24 |
| zx2c4 | do i have anohter option here? | 20:24 |
| zx2c4 | i really want ubuntu to be the easy recommendation, because its the os people already know how to use, but when it results in things like this regularly, what am i expected to do? | 20:24 |
| zx2c4 | "sorry i recommended this to you" is about all i can concede | 20:24 |
| apw | the kernel was released in error about 48 hours ago, the fixed packages failed dry and were sent to be respin, and I have spent half of the time since on a family emergency, sometimes these things happen | 20:30 |
| apw | I will get something sorted today | 20:30 |
| apw | if this had been and lts it would have had more.focus | 20:31 |
| zx2c4 | 48 hours? its been a week ive been getting emails from people | 20:32 |
| zx2c4 | https://lists.zx2c4.com/pipermail/wireguard/2020-February/005044.html | 20:33 |
| zx2c4 | good to know about the LTS priority | 20:34 |
| zx2c4 | i'll advise folks to stick to the LTS releases if they want to use wireguard on servers | 20:34 |
| apw | we endeavour to treat them well but lts' have much larger user bases | 20:37 |
| zx2c4 | yea makes sense | 20:38 |
| zx2c4 | priorites are priorities | 20:38 |
| zx2c4 | apw: okay looks like you pushed the wrong version? | 21:34 |
| zx2c4 | i am unimpressed | 21:35 |
| zx2c4 | 21:23:34 <apw> zx2c4: a miss labelling of a tracker let that out, a fix is in play but you moaned it wasn't up to date enough | 21:35 |
| zx2c4 | 21:23:56 <zx2c4> you guys have the ability to trivially bump packages to be up to date easily | 21:35 |
| apw | zx2c4, be unimpresed, that is a working version which is tested with that kernel | 21:36 |
| apw | zx2c4, that is something i can sru in 1 day in an emergency, a version which has not | 21:36 |
| apw | zx2c4, even been tested by us with a developement kernle is not appropriate for an SRU let | 21:37 |
| apw | zx2c4, alone an emergency sryu with no dwell | 21:37 |
| apw | zx2c4, trust me i know how our sryu process works | 21:37 |
| apw | zx2c4, i will then expect tomomrrow to go and make the one in focal new | 21:37 |
| apw | zx2c4, and that can be sru'd at a more normal non-emergency pace which fits within | 21:38 |
| apw | zx2c4, the sru criteria, and therefore is allowed | 21:38 |
| zx2c4 | gotcha so youre saying that whenever 20.04 gets the new version, youll put that into 19.10? | 21:38 |
| apw | yes i am saying that, if debian does it before tommorro that will be better, if not and i get a chance | 21:38 |
| apw | i will try and do it myself, the first time is less easy as i have not changed that package myself so far | 21:39 |
| zx2c4 | gotcha. DalekSec ^ relevant | 21:40 |
