seb128hey mvo, thx for the fontconfig and freetype fix ... do you have any hint on the easiest way to test the change?06:30
zygaTook meds now06:30
zygaWill be able to work in 3006:30
mvoseb128: I can build a custom snapd snap for trying it out, will take some minutes06:31
seb128mvo, that would be nice if you could, I'm happy to give it a try today06:32
mvoseb128: sure, building now and once done will ping you06:35

zygapresets are somewhat different, as they come from the distro09:59
zygabut we could convey the same idea09:59
zygae.g. apache is not started automatically09:59
zygabut the server preset makes that so09:59
zygawhile desktop does not09:59
zyga(just a made up example)10:00
zygaperhaps an app could even have a snapctl level influence over the preset to use10:00

cachiojust need to run the test like this13:41

cachioI didn't see any special config for console conf in the code13:44
ijohnsoncachio: what's the test that doesn't work ?13:45
ijohnsonsorry I had to drop from SU before you could share details13:45
cachioijohnson, snap-set-core-config13:45
ijohnsonI'm all setup to run external spread tests easily now though :-)13:45
ijohnsoncachio: ack I will give it a try right now13:45
ijohnsoncachio: same pc.img.xz as yesterday ?13:45
cachioyes13:46
ijohnsoncachio: much like the other test, if this is being run with an external backend, it functions differently13:52
ijohnsoncachio: the issue is that this test tries to re-enable console-conf after disabling it, but that only works if console-conf was never run manually by the user13:53
mborzeckiheh, 2nd thunderstorm today13:53
ijohnsoncachio: in our case, we manually run console-conf in order to be able to create the test / ubuntu users13:53
mborzeckihah13:54
ijohnsoncachio: which means that snapd does the right thing and when we unset the system config, snapd doesn't undo console-conf disabling itself13:54
ijohnsoncachio: the test needs to be adjust to special case external backend, I will prep a PR for oyu13:54
mborzeckiijohnson: thanks for investigating!13:55

ijohnsonzyga: thanks, one small comment then LGTM15:26
ijohnsonzyga: I'll take a look at the other one today too15:26
ijohnsonxnox: what is the canonical way to know if console-conf ran? I thought it was the presence of the /var/lib/console-conf/complete file, but it doesn't appear that file is ever written by console-conf itself ? that file simply seems to be used to _disable_ console-conf, not to tell whether console-conf ran or not15:45
zygaijohnson: applied now15:52
xnoxijohnson: pass. I am not sure if it is possible to tell if it ran, or did anything, or if it's state was cleared, or like who/what created the managed user....15:53
ijohnsonxnox: I'm wondering about for our tests in snapd about disable console-conf15:53
ijohnsonxnox: we can hack some things into place, but our test was checking for that file, but it seems that file is not actually created when we expected it to be15:54
pstolowskiijohnson: hey, would you take a look at #8928? it's test only PR15:54
mupPR #8928: tests: add spread test for disconnect undo caused by failing disconnect hook <Simple πŸ˜ƒ> <Created by stolowski> <https://github.com/snapcore/snapd/pull/8928>15:54
ijohnsonxnox: if there's not an "official way" that's fine I can replace it with a working hack to see that the test is checking the right thing15:54
ijohnsonpstolowski: sure, will be my afternoon though at this point15:54
pstolowskithanks!15:55
xnoxijohnson: maybe something is buggy? It should be leaving that stamp file at the end... When ran successfully. At least that's what I thought.15:56
mvoseb128: did my updated snapd snap help with the fc-cache issue? no rush, just curious if I can update anything in the PR15:56
ijohnsonxnox: it doesn't leave a stamp file on uc20 or uc18 afaict15:56
ijohnsonxnox: shall I file a bug ?15:56
ijohnsonzyga: thanks for adding that Error(), I'll keep an eye on the PR and merge it for you tonight15:57
seb128mvo, ah, sorry, I meant to comment, I just tested half an hour ago, I wiped the cache, installed your snap and the font was correctly listed in the newly generated cache, so seems to work from that testing15:58
zygathanks15:58
mvoseb128: \o/ yay15:58
zygaonce it lands I need to merge it back into to big helper15:58
seb128mvo, thanks for the quick fix :)15:58
mvoseb128: my pleasure, thanks for all your help with this! (and to jamesh)15:58
ijohnsonmvo: regarding that bug, how will the spread tests get the fix for that? do we build the fc-cache helpers in the snapd deb the way we do for the snapd snap? just wondering how we could properly fix my spread test showing that it works16:01
seb128mvo, I've added a comment on the bug and the pr now16:01
ijohnsoncachio: do you have time today to verify #8933 ?16:02
mupPR #8933: tests/core/uc20-recovery: apply hack to get gopath in recover mode w/ external backend <Test Robustness> <UC20> <Created by anonymouse64> <https://github.com/snapcore/snapd/pull/8933>16:02
mvoijohnson: I think we just merge the fix into edge, rebuild the snap and then re-run your test (that now no longer needed to rebuild the snapd snap). it's not as nice as you test but we can always revert again if needed16:03
mvoijohnson: sorry, it's very low-tech, a real friday evening suggestion :)16:03
ijohnsonmvo: so the test will use the snapd snap ?16:03
ijohnsonmvo: that's fine, just wondering since it's a little annoying in the test to have to revert from the snapd snap to the deb, certainly doable though I think16:03
mvoijohnson: yeah, once fc-cache-builder is in git and the snapd snap is rebuild we should have the right version16:03
ijohnsonmvo: ah actually all the font tests are run on classic, so it's not a problem, the magic spread restore should take care of it16:04
ijohnsonnvm me, thanks mvo16:04
mvoijohnson: aha, ok16:04
mvoijohnson: sorry, I think I was not even grasping the depth of the question :)16:04
mvoijohnson: but happy to help!16:04
ijohnsonmvo: haha no worries it's probably EOW time for you anyways :-)16:04
mvoijohnson: it is - plus it's hot here :)16:05
ijohnsonyah I hear that16:05
* mvo is good at making excuses16:05
* mvo will just write one or two more mails and then call it a day16:05
ijohnsonxnox: seems that /run/console-conf/login-details* is the best indicator if console-conf ran successfully / normally on the system16:10
xnoxijohnson: but that could also be generated if the system got provisioned elsehow too I think16:13
ijohnsonxnox: I don't see it, I tried both with cloud-init and with system user assertions and don't see that dir16:13
xnoxInteresting.16:13
ijohnsonxnox: maybe I checked in bad ways16:13
xnoxAnd after reboot it's still there?16:13
ijohnsonxnox: but I can make my test pass now, so that's all that's important :-)16:13
ijohnsonxnox: afaict yes16:13
xnoxCool. Roll with it.16:14
xnoxNext time I touch consoleconf I will try to understand how it works.16:14
