bdmurraythis seems worth taking16:11
bdmurrayI'll target and card it16:12

bdmurrayI also saw this during an upgrade16:13
bdmurrayThis would add a lot of noise to debugging dist-upgrades16:14
dokoI don't care, do what you have to do16:18
rbalint+1 for carding it16:23
bdmurrayWe'll talk about this at the sprint in Frankfurt but will also target and card it16:24
bdmurraybug 1862846 is already targetted and in progress16:25
ubottubug 1862846 in util-linux (Ubuntu Focal) "Crash and failure installing focal" [Medium,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/186284616:25

bdmurraywe'll card that16:27
bdmurrayIt looks like bryce has made progress with bug 1861472 but has a lot of philosophical questions in there16:28
ubottubug 1861472 in openssh (Ubuntu) "upgrade from fresh bionic to focal needlessly prompts user" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/186147216:28
bdmurrayvorlon will follow up on the questions16:29
bdmurraybug 1861470 sounds familiar did we discuss it?16:30
ubottubug 1861470 in linux-signed-5.4 (Ubuntu) "BIOS logo reappears mid-boot after the purple screen" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/186147016:30
vorlonis this the one I've commented on?16:30
vorlonyeah16:30
bdmurrayThis sounds like something we should coordinate across teams so a spec would be appropriate to get agreement and buy in.16:33
bdmurrayOr start via an email which xnox will send.16:33
bdmurraybug 1861082 is a duplicate and think is a won't fix from us16:34
ubottubug 1861082 in apport (Ubuntu) "ubuntu-bug doesn't know how to file bugs against snaps" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/186108216:34
bdmurraybecause there isn't any information provided by snaps about where bugs should go16:35
bdmurrayI seem to recall some previous work about apport telling you something is a snap e.g. if you do ubuntu-bug git-ubuntu16:37
bdmurrayand that does tell you something16:38
bdmurrayxnox will do some stuff with that bug16:39

vorlon[LINK] https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/proposed-migration/focal/update_excuses_by_team.html#foundations-bugs16:43
vorlonthe top one is libyaml-libyaml-perl, which is stuck in both Debian unstable and -proposed because of some upstream incompatibilities16:44
vorlonI took this one last time but didn't make any progress on it16:44
vorlonI'm inclined to deprioritize it, unless someone else is keen?16:44
xnoxkick it out of -proposed?16:44
vorlonxnox: why?  it is likely to be fixed eventually in Debian16:45
xnoxif it can't migrate, and we can't update the package if we need to = bad16:45
xnoxcause /this/ version will never migrate16:45
vorlonwhen have we ever updated this package16:45
xnox=)16:45
xnoxlolz ok16:45
vorlonxnox: no, it's a /related/ package whose autopkgtests are failing16:45
xnoxah16:45
vorlonand that package might get fixed so that they can go in together16:45
xnoxok16:45
vorlonso I would leave it there and ignore unless something else comes up that makes it a priority16:45
vorlongmp16:45
xnoxopen a bug report with update-execuse tag explaining this?16:45
vorlonrbalint: you took this one last week, do you need any help?16:46
vorlonxnox: ok16:46
rbalintgmp is mine, behavour changes16:46
vorlonI'll do that16:46
rbalintneed revdep fixes, on it16:46
vorlonok16:46
vorlonboost-defaults16:46
vorlonxnox: need any help here for this transition?16:46
xnoxcan we just migrate it?16:46
vorlonsounds like no (britney is right!)16:47
vorlonand sounds like boost-defaults+icu is going to be ready to go soon16:47
vorlonpyserial/mu-editor16:48
vorlonwaveform took this16:48
vorlonwaveform: (when you're around) any progress on pyserial, mu-editor on armhf?16:48
vorlonlibsereal-decoder-perl is tdaitx, who is also not around, carry over16:49
vorlonicu, as discussed16:49
vorlonopenjdk-lts is blocked on the i386 autopkgtest regression16:49
vorlonwell, "regression"16:49
vorlondoko: do I need to dig up my patch for i386 autopkgtests and send it to you?16:49
vorlonor have you talked to tdaitx about this?16:50
dokovorlon: not yet, he's still lunching :-/16:51
vorlondoko: so will you follow up with him or should I dig up my link?16:51
dokomaybe digging it up is safer16:52
vorlonok16:53
vorlonapt + libzstd16:53
vorlonjuliank: ^^ any insight?  do you want to take this and dig into it?16:53
vorlonmight just need a retry16:53
juliankill loo16:53
vorlonok16:53
juliankk16:53
vorlonxfsprogs, entangled with icu16:53
vorlonprocps: this was my upload, I've pinged the server team about figuring out why postgresql-common doesn't like the new version, I'll re-ping16:54
vorlon(the postgresql-comomn tests require a VM rather than a chroot, so I can't be bothered to reproduce it locally ;p)16:54

bdmurrayI'm out starting the 25th16:57
juliankI'll have to land libapt-pkg6.0 next week before FF. I might still want a FFe to add more patterns later when I'm less busy16:57
ahasenackcan I bring something up? (don't know what aob is, any other business?)16:57
dokoahh, I wanted to point out the two pending transitions:16:57
juliankahasenack: yes it is16:57
dokohttps://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/transitions/html/python3.8-only.html16:58
bdmurrayits not ahasenack other business though16:58
juliankbdmurray: that's true16:58
dokohttps://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/transitions/html/icu.html16:58
dokohelp on those is welcome16:58
vorlondoko: from what xnox says, icu should be "done soon", are there specific things here that you and xnox want help with?16:58
xnoxdoko:  are unknown actually bad? or unknown actually good?16:58
vorlonI can pitch in but don't want to duplicate effort16:58
juliankbdmurray: we could invite him to share, though, let's be friendly16:59
xnoxvorlon:  there are like 12 packages left, i'm not stuck yet. if i do get stuck i'll ask for help.16:59
vorlonok16:59
dokoxnox: I'm ignoring unknown16:59
xnoxso far it was fallout from new SDL2 and new CMAKE nothing related to icu itself, just generic bitrot FTBFS16:59
bdmurrayahasenack: what do you want to bring up?16:59
ahasenackmy topic is bind 9.16, upstream's "lts" stable version. isc-dhcp, bind-dyndb-ldap (universe) don't build with it, and debian has come up with https://salsa.debian.org/dns-team/bind9-libs/commit/40cab7029da3680cb9e58fa849018d942a6013b116:59
xnoxahasenack:  i asked them to release LTS stable in time for ubuntu LTS.16:59
ahasenackwhich is package 9.16.x as just libraries, to keep isc-dhcp happy, and ship 9.16 with the full blown server17:00
xnoxahasenack:  my hope was that we will take it.17:00
dokoanyway, if anybody is picking up a python3.8 issue, just mention it on irc17:00
ahasenackyeah, I've been working on 9.15.8 for the past few days, trying to pacakge it, check the differences, etc17:00
ahasenackthis affects also freeipa, but it's my understanding we removed it from focal already, due to java issues, or something like that17:00
xnoxahasenack:  we do want to keep isc-dhcp working17:00
xnoxahasenack:  so i guess we do need to do this mess, and take it into focal17:01
juliank:/17:01
xnoxdon't care about bind-dyndb-ldap, but we do care about isc-dhcp to be working17:01
ahasenack#security also prefers to have 9.16 as the server17:01
vorlonxnox: do you want to create a card for the isc-dhcp work?17:01
xnoxcan we fix isc-dhcp or is it hard?17:01
ahasenackand is ok with having 9.11 as libs only, even though they are used (for what?) in isc-dhcp17:01
xnoxor like make isc-dhcp static link?17:01
xnoxcause i'm not sure we want to expose old libs for everyone17:01
xnoxahasenack:  it is ok for having 9.11 as libs only, yes.17:02
ahasenackthere are also the udebs which I don't know how they are used17:02
ahasenackdebian's 9.16 package doesn't build them17:02
vorlononly in d-i, so let's just break those deliberately17:02
vorlon;p17:02
xnoxahasenack:  it's isc-dhcp which is used in d-i.17:02
ahasenackI mean, I know it's in d-i, just not how, or how to test it17:02
xnoxahasenack:  hence you'll probably need the old bind libs as udebs17:02
xnoxbut not the new ones17:03
ahasenackxnox: the bind9-libs src pkg from that salsa link above builds the udebs17:03
ahasenackthe 9.11 ones17:03
xnoxyes17:03
ahasenackso it looks like a working plan17:03
xnoxyeap17:03
ahasenackbut wanted to check with you17:03
ahasenackspecially because we will have two major versions of bind 9 in main then17:03
ahasenackeven though one only builds libraries17:03
vorlon:/17:03
xnoxyes17:03
xnoxahasenack:  alternative is to build systemd-networkd netplan python3.8 into initramfs and udebs17:04
ahasenackI don't know about building isc-dhcp with static bind9.11 libraries17:04
xnoxahasenack:  drop / break isc-dhcp17:04
xnoxand thus drop / break ifupdown17:04
julianknooooooooo17:04
ahasenackI tried merging isc-dhcp once from debian, couldn't do it. Too much undocumented history17:04
xnoxwhich is not going to happen17:04
xnoxahasenack:  i think people at this point depend on the bugs in isc-dhcp as stable ABI17:04
juliankbut .. can't it go to universe?17:05
xnoxjuliank:  we use it in the initrd17:05
juliankifupdown is in universe17:05
xnoxjuliank:  isc-dhcp17:05
juliankhmm17:05
vorlonxnox: isc-dhcp is also used in initramfs17:05
ahasenackI was told by upstream that isc-dhcp is on life support17:05
vorlonsure, but in favor of what17:05
ahasenackisc-kea probably17:06
julianksystemd dhcp client?17:06
ahasenackah, mixed streams, sorry17:06
vorlonjuliank: in initramfs17:06
vorlonthat's not a change to make for 20.0417:06
juliankyes17:06
juliank:D17:07
vorlondid we manage to close out this meeting, or is it going to go forever because bdmurray is afk? :)17:07
xnoxjuliank:  i don't think we can use networkd dhcp client stand alone, as it requests different set of DHCP options / not enough for like ISCSI root mount on Oracle17:07
bdmurrayI'll close it out17:07
