alkisgHi, /var/lib/snapd/snaps somehow ends up getting copied-up in overlayfs in live CDs, wasting as much RAM as there are snaps installed07:43

ubottuLaunchpad bug 1867415 in snapd "/var/lib/snapd/snaps needs 400 MB tmpfs RAM on live CDs" [Undecided,New]07:43
alkisgInstalled snaps shouldn't consume tmpfs RAM space, they should only use squashfs disk space; if this continues then live CDs won't be usable in the future as snaps will need GB  of tmpfs space07:45
alkisgAnd of course that means that if LTSP users install 5 GB snaps, they'll need netbooted PCs to have 5 GB more RAM, which of course doesn't happen with .debs; I guess this will force them to uninstall snapd...07:57
alkisgI suspect they're hard linked from /var/lib/snapd/seed/snaps/*.snap to /var/lib/snapd/snaps/, and this causes overlayfs copy-ups for all snaps08:29

brlinalkisg: FYI, there's a #snappy channel here10:51
alkisgbrlin: thanks; regarding the forum topic, yeah I opened that after opening the launchpad bug14:48
alkisgbrlin: do you think I should put casper in affected packages, in case it cannot be fixed in snapd in time for 20.04, but it can be worked-around in casper?16:00
brlinalkisg: If it's related (in any way) I suppose it's reasonable.16:01
alkisgI believe it can be considered a bug in snap/squashfs/squashfs.go, function Install, but it can also be worked around by symlinking all the files in casper's initrd-bottom16:03
alkisgMaybe it's best to wait a few days, and if there's no feedback from snap, then put casper too16:04

nicolas17https://packages.ubuntu.com/source/xenial-updates/git is there a git repo for the ubuntu packaging of git?23:28
valorieha23:32
valorieit would be funny if it was in bzr23:33
nicolas17I found the git repo Debian uses, but that doesn't have Ubuntu-specific changes (such as security backports) or the changes done for the PPA https://launchpad.net/~git-core/+archive/ubuntu/ppa23:33
valorienicolas17: you could ask in #ubuntu-devel maybe23:41
