[06:15] bryceh: so your local build which isn't a full container more a chroot did change your systems time, that sounds wrong :-) Was that reproducible or didn't you try to not mess up the system more? [06:16] as sdeziel said, for real containers you do not have CAP_SYS_TIME which some handle better than others, but if your env was really just a (s)chroot then your case isn't the same [06:53] cpaelzer, very reproducible. I created a second fresh lxc container and reproduced it there as well. [06:57] oh so it really was lxd container then [06:58] correct [06:58] bryceh: any chance we could replace ntpd in that env with chrony (the meant to work and supported ntp server) or at least (more a drop in replacement) ntpsec ? [06:58] the world is about to stop caring for classic ntpd in favor of one or the other [06:59] do you mean temporarily for testing, or permanently as in the autopkgtest config? [07:05] cpaelzer, I think my next step will be to redo the merge from scratch and see if it occurs again, or if I can spot where an error crept in. If that still repro's I'll post the branch for someone else to doublecheck. [07:06] sounds fine if it wasn't a 5 day effort that you are now re-doing :-) [07:06] and I meant temporarily for testing, depending on the outcome we can then make long term decisions === slyon_ is now known as slyon === jchittum_ is now known as jchittum === jgee0 is now known as jgee === lotuspsychje_ is now known as lotuspsychje === haggertk_ is now known as haggertk === kenyon_ is now known as kenyon [11:52] good morning [11:54] * kanashiro waves === jgee6 is now known as jgee [14:45] quick non-scientific poll: do you use ansible on ubuntu server? Or is it too old? [14:49] I do. I use the version of ansible currently packaged in Focal. [15:21] ahasenack: I'm sure you've seen it, but there is feedback on the FRR MIR [16:03] cpaelzer: yes, I saw it in the morning [16:28] paride: https://pypi.org/project/ansible/ says latest ansible is 5.2.0, but the github project has "stable-2.X" branches [16:28] and there is a split somewhere, ansible-core [16:28] can you give a quick tl;dr? [16:28] 2.12 seems to be the latest stable, is that? What is 5.2.0 then? [16:29] https://groups.google.com/g/ansible-announce/c/Aw5eGIHgpkg <-- announcement for 2.12.1, ansible-core 2.11.7, ansible-base 2.10.16, just a few months old [16:39] ahasenack, it seems that they ramped up the versions numbers rather quickly https://groups.google.com/g/ansible-announce/search?q=release [16:39] The homepage ansible.com is impossible to use :/ [16:45] ahasenack, the timeline in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ansible_(software) is useful but lacks sources [16:45] I mean, lacks references to official sources [16:46] and meaning [16:46] I see yellow for "extended support" in the legend, but no yellow in the graph [16:47] maybe worth asking in their channel [16:47] their #topic: " * latest releases: ansible 5.2.0, 2.9.27; ansible-core 2.12.2, 2.11.8; ansible-base 2.10.17; ansible 2.8 is EOL 💀; ansible 2.9 EOL announcement https://groups.google.com/g/ansible-announce/c/kegIH5_okmg/" [16:48] maybe https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/reference_appendices/release_and_maintenance.html explains, reading... [16:56] ahasenack, actually the latest NEWS entry helps: https://salsa.debian.org/debian/ansible/-/blob/master/debian/NEWS [16:58] is there another source in debian too? [16:59] yes, ansible-core [17:02] but ansible (2.10.7+merged+base+2.10.8+dfsg-1) they merged ansible-base (= ansible-core) into ansible, for some reason. [17:06] aha, that's what "merged" means in that version [17:07] sounds like debian is still experimenting with this [17:07] hmml, that is not the experimental one even [17:21] it's a huge package, over 200Mb installed [17:21] looks like it has tests installed as well [17:52] paride: I'm finding that many fixes that were in ansible-core (deb) were not pulled into the new merged ansible package [17:52] maybe they were just in experimental at that time, could be [18:54] ahasenack, there's a reason ansible folks recommend using ansible from pip :) [18:55] pip has 5.2, which from my understanding is a bundle [18:55] the core/base bits, and some "curated" playbooks I think [18:57] znf: that's a really common recommendation from most upstreams. Yet most of us use most of our software from distribution packages :) [18:59] some packages have a very fast release/development cycle (like ansible) [19:00] and there's a certain point you kinda want the new features :) [19:02] Every two years, when there's a new LTS out. Then it's on a nice, predictable cadence :) [19:04] Then it's nicely in phase with the support cycles of the machines I'm actually managing, too. The last thing I want is to find some issue with the playbook of an existing deployment that worked previously because something did a major version bump without coordination, or for me to be unable to reproduce a setup that worked previously. [19:18] kanashiro: FWIW https://code.launchpad.net/~sergiodj/britney/+git/hints-ubuntu/+merge/414905 [19:19] sergiodj, thanks! [19:20] after that's processed, there'll be only jekyll [19:38] I have jekyll almost fixed locally === genii is now known as genii-core
