oSoMoNI spent some time looking into the node-sha.js autopkgtest failures on ppc64el, which (along with other test failures in various node-* packages) prevent the migration of nodejs12:21
oSoMoNit turns out it's a nasty bug in V8 that incorrectly optimizes a function on ppc64el only (https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/34666)12:21
oSoMoNthis requires further investigation upstream, and I'm not sure what the best approach would be to get this moving forward in Ubuntu12:22
oSoMoN(nodejs in turns is blocking firefox and thunderbird)12:22
oSoMoNs/turns/turn/12:22
oSoMoNsuggestions welcome12:23
seb128oSoMoN, would building with a lower -O workaround the optimization problem?12:27
oSoMoNseb128, I don't know, I'm not familiar with how V8 optimizes code, but I can certainly try12:32
seb128oSoMoN, I'm just random suggesting, let's see if maybe doko or xnox can help there12:33
iceyoSoMoN: feel free to ignore me but I'm kind of a fan of the minimal `eval('')` patch you mention in the bug report12:36
oSoMoNicey, that would just hide one symptom of the problem, but V8 would potentially incorrectly optimize other functions in other packages12:37
iceyfair enough12:37
oSoMoNsil2100, hey, I just commented on bug #1889106, if you're still around and have some time for it, would you mind accepting chromium-browser 84.0.4147.105-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 into focal-proposed?13:54
ubottubug 1889106 in chromium-browser (Ubuntu Focal) "[SRU] Upgrading from 18.04 to 20.04 will keep the 18.04 chromium-browser due to a higher version than the transitional deb in 20.04" [High,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/188910613:54
oSoMoNthat would fix the deb->snap upgrade path for users upgrading from bionic to focal13:55
ahasenackseb128: I have a merge ready for gnunet, but the my_bool change is still needed13:59
ahasenackI opened a bug upstream this time13:59
ahasenackthat's our only delta13:59
seb128ahasenack, right, thank you!14:05
ahasenackseb128: it doesn't have dep8 tests, and I really don't know much about the pkg14:05
ahasenackseb128: was it blocking/breaking something else, something I could test with this new version?14:06
ahasenackotherwise, I'll jut get a quick review and upload14:06
seb128ahasenack, something was depwaiting on it on the proposed report but I forgot what ... the delta is minimal and that could be an autosynced update, I would trust Debian and not spent too much effort trying to test it14:07
ahasenackok14:08
ahasenackI just got a build failure, taking a quick look14:08
ahasenackmight be gcc10 fun14:08
ahasenackseb128: ah, gnunet-fuse perhaps14:09
ahasenackand all the other gnunet-* src packages looks like14:09
ahasenackwhich are syncs14:09
seb128ahasenack, right14:10
ahasenackok, I ll handle it14:10
ahasenackok, ftbfs resolved14:27
PinchiukasAre the pipelines that build images for vagrant, etc public? As I understand, people in ubuntu build them.16:18
ahasenackvorlon: hi, good morning/afternoon. While reviewing the base-files changes regarding motd-news-config, cpaelzer came across one case which we are wondering if it's worth addressing17:08
ahasenackvorlon: basically the scenario is you have the current base-files and ubuntu-server installed, and the user removes /etc/default/motd-news (instead of editing it)17:08
ahasenackin that scenario, when you do the upgrade, /etc/default/motd-news is reinstalled when the new motd-news-config package is installed17:09
ahasenackyou start with base-files/ubuntu-server, upgrade, and end up with base-files, ubuntu-server, and motd-news-config, as expected. But with the config file back, as it's now part of motd-news-config, and before, when the user removed it, it was part of base-files17:09
ahasenackis this worth addressing? If yes, how?17:09

PinchiukasAnyone?20:04
xnoxahasenack: I think it's impossible to migrate conffile between packages.21:54
ahasenackI'm doing it for the case of a modified conf file, when there is a backup21:54
ahasenackbut a removed one... that's another story21:54
xnoxahasenack: at most you can check if the file doesn't exist in preinst and re-remove it.21:54
xnoxahasenack: backups and modified ones, also hard.21:55
