Laneyyeah doing alright09:05
WimpressYo09:06
Wimpressseb128 Laney Brad contacted me about exfat.09:07
WimpressHe filed this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/186202809:07
ubot5Ubuntu bug 1862028 in linux (Ubuntu) "Focal uses the exfat fuse filesystem even though there is support in the kernel" [Undecided,Incomplete]09:07
WimpressWhat are your thoughts on that one?09:07
didrockshey Laney, Wimpress09:07
WimpressMorning didrocks09:08
seb128Wimpress, it's tagged champagne, we will get to it in the next meeting?09:08
seb128but still I'm curious now so having a look09:09
marcustomlinsonhellsworth: so LO arm64 autopkgtests look to be passing now. cool09:12
seb128Wimpress, I commented on the bug, I guess he installed exfat-fuse that we don't install by default. We should probably deprecate/remove that one on update if that's what creates the issue, let's see what Brad replies09:13
marcustomlinsonLaney: hey, I feel pretty confident with that upgrader MR now, got to all your comments, again thanks for that!09:14
Laneyok cool, will look again soon09:14
Laneyif you could add comments for how to test it that'd help09:14
marcustomlinsonok09:15
jibelseb128, hi, has there been any conclusion on this thread ? https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2019-November/040844.html09:20
jibelit landed in today's build09:21
seb128?!09:21
seb128jibel, no, basically people seem to mostly agree on principle09:21
seb128but that's one of the item we didn't manage to even start looking at and no other team stated they would work on it09:21
seb128what landed exactly?09:22
jibela new casper that enable media integrity check by default09:22
jibelit can be skipped with 'S'09:22
jibelhttps://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/1.44109:23
seb128I'm not going to complain, I was just not expecting it09:23
jibeland previous upload09:23
seb128did you test it? does it feel alright as an user experience?09:23
jibelyes09:23
jibelyes twice :)09:24
seb128:)09:24
jibelsome users are surprised an report bugs, I'll just close them and point the to the discussion09:24
jibeland*09:24
Wimpressseb128: Thanks for checking on that.09:24
seb128jibel, thanks!09:25
seb128Wimpress, np09:25
WimpressThat buig actually affect Ubuntu MATE and Kylin. I'll follow up.09:26
LaneyWonder if xnox said anywhere that this was being implemented09:27
seb128Wimpress, exfat-fuse?09:27
WimpressYes.09:27
seb128Laney, I didn't read anything about it09:27
WimpressSeeded in Ubuntu MATE.09:27
seb128:p09:28
WimpressAnd Kylin.09:28
seb128it's probably a good idea to drop it then yes :)09:28
WimpressIndeed.09:28
jibelLaney, he didn't09:37
jibelxnox, I think the type of the partition of the ESP in BIOS mode is wrong, it should be 'ef' not 'b'09:43
seb128(and back now)10:18
xnoxseb128: integrity check improvements are as per email thread and ongoing installer boot options review with mpt. This implementation is not final, but is a massive improvement. Still need to get UX rereviewed with mpt as it simply addressed a long lost of complaints about it from mpt. I.e. I am not sure if I should store the result of the check somewhere, to surface a warning in the installer with11:04
xnoxtranslations once we boot fully.11:04
xnoxjibel: can you please comment on that partman-auto / ubiquity bug report about type of partition? I will not have time to look at that right now, but don't want to loose this information.11:05
seb128xnox, thx for working on it in any case ... I didn't test yet, but we still start the installer if the check failed?11:07
xnoxseb128: at the moment yes, with a warning printed and a longer delay.11:08

GunnarHjHey seb128!12:06
GunnarHjseb128: Aware of any plans for xkeyboard-config? Upstream has recently released 2.29, but Debian is still on 2.26 (quiet there the last year). Should we by-pass Debian and upgrade?12:06
tjaaltonGunnarHj: I can update it there12:16
tjaaltonso far pkg-xorg has been just me the past year..12:16
tjaaltonmore or less12:16
GunnarHjtjaalton: Excellent! Then I await your update before preparing a merge in Ubuntu.12:17
seb128GunnarHj, hey GunnarHj, sounds like you got a reply :)12:18
tjaaltonwhat's the diff like?12:18
seb128GunnarHj, do you want to maybe look at the new ibus?12:18
tjaaltonGunnarHj: since we don't support d-i anymore, I don't think the split of xkb-data-i18n is needed anymore12:19
seb128Trevinho, hey, should gnome-shell-extension-appindicator/exp be synced to focal?12:19
Laneyput it in the silo ?12:19
tjaaltonGunnarHj: and we don't cache xkb data anymore, so I guess it could be synced then, assuming all the others are upstream by now12:20
GunnarHjseb128: Yeah, xkeyboard-config is under control then. Which new ibus are you talking about? slangasek recently updated it.12:20
seb128GunnarHj, 1.5.2212:20
seb128GunnarHj, https://packages.qa.debian.org/i/ibus/news/20200226T120812Z.html12:21
LaneyFeb 27 12:15:39 focal-vm gnome-shell[876]: JS ERROR: Error: Type name Gjs_WindowClone is already registered12:21
Laney/o\12:21
seb128Trevviiinnhhoooo12:22
GunnarHjtjaalton: Ok, syncing is more convenient, of course. I'll take a look and see if there is anything I believe we still need.12:22
seb128GunnarHj, thx12:22
tjaaltonyep12:22
Laneyfixed with upgrading libgjs0g, it's a not strict enough dependency12:23
seb128ah, good12:25
GunnarHjseb128: Will look at ibus 1.5.22. I think the most important stuff is already in via patches. Possibly we should wait until they move it to unstable?12:25
seb128GunnarHj, the version we currently have is also only in experimental, unsure why they don't move to unstable12:26
seb128GunnarHj, https://packages.qa.debian.org/i/ibus.html shows they had the previous version upload to experimental as well so I guess it has more to do with packaging change than with the new version12:27
seb128GunnarHj, anyway I just wanted to know if you could look at/evaluate if we should get the new version, "no" is a valid answer :)12:27
GunnarHjseb128: I looked at it as late as last night, and concluded that it's probably no hurry due to Steve's upload. But sure, I can prepare an upload based on the experimental variant if you like.12:29
seb128GunnarHj, no, I was just wondering if the .22 update from upstream had fixes we maybe should consider12:32
seb128seems not from you say so all good :)12:32
GunnarHjtjaalton: If we don't need xkb-data-i18n any longer, I think we are ready to start syncing. There is a postinst script too, which removes /var/lib/xkb/*.xkm files, but I can't recall that I have seen such files there for many cycles.12:43
tjaaltonGunnarHj: that's the xkb cache, we dropped the xserver patch some time ago because it caused issues bigger than the tiny speedup it gave12:44
tjaaltonso yeah, should be syncable then12:45
GunnarHjtjaalton: Great!12:45

tkamppeterseb128, Laney, I have a question about my gscan2pdf-blocks-everything Merge Request, https://code.launchpad.net/~till-kamppeter/britney/hints-ubuntu/+merge/379911 Is it assigned correctly to "Ubuntu Package Archive Administrators"? Or have I to move it to "ubuntu-release" or so?16:08

marcustomlinsonThe Lion-Eating Poet in the Stone Den16:28
tkamppeterLaney, switched to release-team, let us hope to get rid of gscan2pdf DoS attacks from Debian.16:33
LaneyNot sure if we should use all16:34
LaneyI've added hints for the current version16:34
tkamppeterLaney. I suggested "all" because otherwise we have to fix it whenever some Debian guy uploads a new version. And according what I see on the sane-devel mailing list gscan2pdf upstream is released frequently.16:36
LaneyThen the test should be turned off in the package I think16:36
LaneyOtherwise we're running it unnecessarily16:36
tkamppeterLaney, so the "force-badtest" means that the test is run but the result is ignored? For what does one need this?16:39
LaneyI don't really want to get into an extended debate about test semantics right now, sorry Till16:40
LaneyTrying to review marcustomlinson's branch16:40
LaneyWe can talk about it in person if you really want nto16:40
Laneymarcustomlinson: can you do a bit o'squashing while I test this please?16:43
marcustomlinsonLaney: sqaushing?16:45
Laneyah16:45
Laneyrebase your branch and merge the commits into logical units16:46
Laneybut if you have to learn how to rebase ... maybe don't bother :p16:46
LaneyI am totally going to mess up releasing this16:50
marcustomlinsongotta see the doc now, back later16:59
Laneylaters16:59
marcustomlinsonok nvm, still waiting. and now I remember this is git not bzr17:03
marcustomlinsonLaney: is it not possible to squash merge?17:04
marcustomlinsonwould you like me to squash everything into a sinlge commit on my branch?17:05
LaneyKind of, I can add a merge commit instead of N separate ones, that's pretty similar to bzr merges17:05
Laneydo you think one commit makes sense? if so, then that'd be nice17:05
Laneythen you can describe the idea in the message which would be sweet17:06
Laneyso you can do git rebase -i origin/ubuntu/master, change all the 'pick' except the first one to 'fixup' and the first one to 'reword', and then write a nice message in the editor you get17:08
Laneyshould do it17:08
Laneyah yay, I got the pre-build.sh script to finish17:11
