ubottubug 1877523 in ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu) "dist-upgrader should provide a better error message if the connection times out" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/187752315:11
bdmurraySo I think ubuntu-release-upgrader could give some suggestions here about switching mirrors of the archive or maybe actually doing it.15:12
bdmurrayI have seen a fair number of this class of report so let's card that.15:13
sil2100+115:13
bdmurraybug 1927994 is a hoot15:13
ubottubug 1927994 in update-notifier (Ubuntu) "/usr/lib/update-notifier/backend_helper.py:FileNotFoundError:/usr/lib/update-notifier/backend_helper.py@166:show_updates:call:__init__:_execute_child" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/192799415:13
bdmurrayIIRC update-notifier-common is seeded in server, but update-manager is not15:14
bdmurrayYeah, that's correct.15:15
bdmurrayThere aren't a lot of these crashes but it seems like something we should fix.15:15
bdmurrayI don't have a great idea of how to fix it though.15:15
bdmurrayvorlon: ?15:15
vorlonwell, I don't think seeding update-manager on server is the right answer15:16
vorlonhow essential are the operations that require u-m?15:16
vorlonshould they become no-ops if u-m isn't present?15:16
bdmurrayI don't recall that part of update-notifier well enough.15:16
bdmurrayIt's also possible there are more error buckets w/ this crash b/c of the line numbers changing.15:18
bdmurraySo let's card it as a spike to figure out how essential the operations are.15:18

bdmurrayIt looks like the desktop team has this well in hand15:20
bdmurrayI'm not sure there would be a benefit to carding it.15:20
bdmurrayBut let's look at it again next meeting.15:20
bdmurray#link http://reqorts.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/rls-mgr/rls-hh-incoming-bug-tasks.html15:21
sil2100I have been poked to do a review, so I'll do that later today or tomorrow15:21
sil2100...possibly tomorrow15:21
bdmurraybug 191665115:21
ubottubug 1916651 in base-passwd (Ubuntu) "asks about irc user home directory during upgrade" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/191665115:21
bdmurrayIs there a way to prevent the prompt from appearing?15:22
bdmurrayvorlon: ^15:22
vorlonwould be a delta to Debian.  I would suggest consulting cjwatson as the upstream maintainer of base-passwd, but in principle I don't see any reason we have to get user consent before changing the irc user's homedir, especially since /var/run is categorically a symlink to /run now15:23
bdmurrayack15:25

bdmurrayunless somebody has an opinion about this maybe we should save this for next week15:29
bdmurrayor vorlon do you think we should card it?15:29
vorlonnot a regression, is it?15:29
vorlonseems like a low-priority bug for it to not detect an existing ESP in this condition and have to create a new one15:29
bdmurraynot as I read it15:29
bdmurrayokay15:30
bdmurraynotfixing then15:30
vorlonI'm sure subiquity implements this perfectly15:31
bdmurray#topic Team proposed-migration report15:31
vorlon#link https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/proposed-migration/update_excuses_by_team.html#foundations-bugs15:32
vorlonthere are only 3 packages waiting and they're all blocked on autopkgtests that appear to be baseline regressions15:32
vorlonI've retried the tests and am not going to bother distributing them today15:32
vorlonI think I saw discussion earlier about automake-1.16 vs bison but don't recall who - did anyone have interest in that?15:33
vorlon(ideally automake-1.16 would have passing tests; but it also shouldn't block bison if they've regressed in the release pocket)15:33
vorlonno answer, so let's move on :)15:35
