[00:12] mwhudson: Which archives? As far as I'm aware the ACL is “if you can upload, you can retry” [00:12] RAOF: this build, for example https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/test-rebuild-20210805-impish/+build/21946102 [00:13] i guess i don't know how copy archives work [00:13] (it's actually too soon to retry these builds, i'm just trying to be prepared) [00:14] Heh. Neither do I! [00:14] It might just be d oko. [00:15] I don't have permission to, for example. [00:21] # Flatly refuse uploads to copy archives, at least for now. [00:21] if self.is_copy: [00:21] return False [00:22] so maybe it's not possible === marcustomlinson_ is now known as marcustomlinson === norwoodites is now known as pinskia === cpaelzer_ is now known as cpaelzer [07:58] hi all, i would like an advice ho to better extend initramfs-tools scripts/hooks for building a custom initramfs image. The problem i'm facing is that i need to set MODULES to dep. And my current solution is creating a custom config within /usr/share/initramfs-tools/conf-hooks.d/ and setting it conditionally depending whether a particular shell variable is set or not. If it set then i override MODULES with dep. Do you see a problem with [07:58] that ? Is there a better way ? Thanks you very much. === tribaal_ is now known as tribaal [08:29] xnox, klebers: hey! How are things looking re: LP: #1934548 ? [08:29] Launchpad bug 1934548 in linux-riscv-5.11 (Ubuntu) "RISC-V: Illegal instruction" [Undecided, Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1934548 [08:53] Hi All [08:53] I have some questions on ubuntu server auto install [08:54] Is this the right channel to ask for help? === juergh_ is now known as juergh === IOhannes_ is now known as IOhannes [10:18] i'm a Debian Developer and one of my packages (src:puredata) has a bug in focal. i wonder: how can i push a fix to focal-updates? [10:20] (in Debian, the bug never made it into stable; and groovy has the fixed package, but people like to stick to LTS...) [10:23] IOhannes: thank you for caring for your package in Ubuntu! https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates has all the details. Please ask if you need any help with it. [10:31] rbasak: thanks. [10:35] i just checked (in a docker-container of focal), and it seems a simple rebuild of the package is sufficient to fix the issue, so i don't need an actual code change. [10:47] IOhannes: we only do sourceful rebuilds in Ubuntu, so it'll still need to follow the same process please. The only source change would be a new debian/changelog entry in the rebuild-only case. [10:48] IOhannes: I wouldn't trust Docker for testing though. It strips so much of the OS out, it can't be used to test the OS itself. [10:48] IOhannes: a lxd container or VM would be more suitable [10:59] Hi sil2100, Is it intentional that the language packs are not updated regularly in impish, or is it some issue? The question was brought up at bug #1939206. [10:59] Bug 1939206 in gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) "Missing translations" [Undecided, Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1939206 [11:11] rbasak: ack. i decided to boot up a VM anyhow, in order to be able to use ubuntu-bug (obviously /me is not very familiar with the specifics of Ubuntu) [12:11] GunnarHj: hey! hm, let me check that [12:33] rbasak: ok i think i did everything required via https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1939293 [12:33] Launchpad bug 1939293 in puredata (Ubuntu) "unable to load externals: undefined symbol '__pow_finite' and similar" [Undecided, New] [12:33] tell me if i missed something. [12:37] IOhannes: looks good, thanks. The version string should be 0.50.2-3ubuntu0.1 but I can fix that for you on upload. Could you check that it's been fixed in a newer Ubuntu release please - preferably Impish - and note that in the bug? [12:45] rbasak: thanks. i've now added a note about Impish (namely: it works!) [12:50] IOhannes: sponsored, thanks! [12:50] IOhannes: I added one other minor change I missed before: [12:50] -Maintainer: Debian Multimedia Maintainers [12:50] +Maintainer: Ubuntu Developers [12:50] +XSBC-Original-Maintainer: Debian Multimedia Maintainers [12:50] That's because of https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebianMaintainerField and implemented in a tool called "update-maintainer" that I ran. [12:52] thanks. i guess there is no central page that would explain/mention all those little details (maintainer-field, correct version,...) (?) [12:53] but: given that you sponsored, am i correct that you do not require me to change these things and upload a new debdiff? [12:53] I'm sorry that the documentation on all of this is quite poor. [12:54] The SRU documentation page links to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/UpdatePreparation#Update_the_packaging on the package version string, but it's buried in there. [12:54] On update-maintainer, if using Ubuntu, then dpkg-buildpackage will complain about it if it is not done. [12:54] No need to upload a new debdiff - I just modified it locally as it's not a subjective change so nothing that needed confirming with you. [12:55] It's awaiting review from the SRU team now. [12:55] cool. [12:55] That usually takes a few days. Then a request for verification will be posted in the bug with further instructions. [12:55] Thank you again for caring for your package in Ubuntu! [12:55] fine. i'm subscribed :-) [12:55] (i would never have looked at the SecurityTeam wiki-page for this ,-)) [12:56] Yeah it's not at all obvious. [12:56] They documented a scheme that works well. We should move it into the SRU documentation page really as a general recommendation. [13:00] GunnarHj: hey! So I took a look at the langpack situation [13:02] GunnarHj: so it seems l-o-m got stuck some while ago, there's a weird mechanism that when something goes really wrong, the updated-packages list stays populated with packages and no new langpacks are uploaded to the archive [13:02] And when I was spinning the focal langpacks I did indeed notice that the updated-packages was not empty, but I cleared it out since I needed to do that for the focal packages [13:03] This seems to have unblocked the impish translations [13:03] So, it seems we have the new langpacks now migrated and they should migrate always [13:03] I wonder if we should set some alert mechanism when this happens, some e-mail notification? I'll write that up in my TODO [14:54] sil2100: Excellent, thanks! Right, an alert email would be useful. === cjwatson_ is now known as cjwatson
