yurtesenI need a sponsor for a small fix on a package. I have made the debdiff. How do I find a sponsor?04:12
lotuspsychjethats not really what volunteers can offer you yurtesen 04:17
lotuspsychjethis community volunteers with ubuntu support the best they can04:17
yurtesenlotuspsychje: what do you mean? aren't most of the sponsors also volunteers?04:32
cpaelzergood morning05:05
cpaelzeryurtesen: do you have a pointer to the bug with your debdiff?05:05
cpaelzeryurtesen: in general this channel is moer (but not exclusively) about ubuntu server discussions and support (see topic) and your request would fit more into #ubuntu-devel. But if complexity is low I can have a look (no matter on which channel I learn about it)05:07
cpaelzerparide: utkarsh2102: if one of you early party people have a minute, trivial change to get swtpm promoted https://code.launchpad.net/~paelzer/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+git/libvirt/+merge/41831305:35
utkarsh2102cpaelzer: of course!05:37
utkarsh2102cpaelzer: done!05:38
cpaelzerglad you didn't spot an issue in this trivial one (would be a bad start of the week) :-)05:40
utkarsh2102hahaha05:40
utkarsh2102cpaelzer: hang on a sec05:42
cpaelzertoo late, but even more so tell me05:42
utkarsh2102yep05:42
utkarsh2102the bug is going to get auto-closed but I do not see a task for libvirt05:43
utkarsh2102is that intentional?05:43
cpaelzerutkarsh2102: yeah kind of, as the libvirt upload only serves as providing the dependency to promote it05:43
cpaelzerutkarsh2102: but I can add that, it makes sense as it will "gain" something by it05:44
utkarsh2102alright, as long as you're aware and it's taken care of05:44
utkarsh2102cpaelzer: yes, that'd actually help05:44
cpaelzerdone05:44
utkarsh2102thank you!05:44
parideo/ morning, it's all done already it seems :)06:02
mirespacegood morning07:22

athosgood morning :)12:06
utkarsh2102athos: o/12:07
utkarsh2102athos: how'd your experimenting with vim over the weekend go? :)12:07
athos:p12:08
utkarsh2102ooh wait, you replied, which I missed! :(12:08
athoshaha12:08
utkarsh2102yurtesen: please tell me your package and debdiff? 12:09
utkarsh2102I'll be happy to sponsor it if it's in universe. If it's in main, we need to contact the team behind it. 12:10
rbasakutkarsh2102: I think it's https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tomcat9/+bug/196488112:32
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1964881 in tomcat9 (Ubuntu Jammy) "Logging/Log rotation does not work for catalina.out" [Undecided, New]12:32
rbasakPlease review if you have the time!12:32
yurtesenutkarsh2102: thanks, it is #1964881.  rbasak also offered looking at it in #ubuntu-motu channel.12:44
rbasakI did, but I don't think I'll get to it for a few days. If utkarsh2102 could do it then that'd be great.12:47
rbasakFWIW, part of the reason is that I've already been reviewing something else for a new contributor that is quite involved.12:47
utkarsh2102Alright, let me take a look at it, this week 13:06

Odd_BlokeHey folks, I'm trying to backport a package from jammy to focal: I've used `backportpackage` to create a source package, and now I'm trying to `sbuild` it.  It requires debhelper 13, so I'm trying to use backports, but the build fails: sbuild --dist=focal task_2.6.1+dfsg-1\~ubuntu20.04.1.dsc --extra-repository "deb http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ focal-backports main restricted universe13:11
Odd_Blokemultiverse"13:12
Odd_Bloke(The failure is "The following packages have unmet dependencies: sbuild-build-depends-main-dummy : Depends: debhelper-compat (= 13)")13:12
utkarsh2102Odd_Bloke: hey, you need to lower the dh-compat prefer. 13:16
utkarsh2102to probably 11 or 12 (whatever it was in Focal)13:16
Odd_Blokeutkarsh2102: Doesn't -backports have the newer debhelper version, though?13:16
utkarsh2102s/prefer./level/13:17
utkarsh2102Odd_Bloke: I don't think so, I'll need to check. 13:17
utkarsh2102did you check? Could you see it?13:17
Odd_Bloke debhelper | 13.5.2ubuntu1~bpo20.04.1 | focal-backports | source, all13:18
Odd_BlokeHmm, I suspect that pinning might be the issue here?13:20
Odd_BlokeYeah, adding a --chroot-setup-command to write 'Pin-Priority: 500' preferences file for backports gets the build started.13:25
utkarsh2102sweet! 13:26
ddstreetutkarsh2102 Odd_Bloke https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports14:04
ddstreetbackports aren't used by default14:04
utkarsh2102ddstreet: aaah, fair, thanks!14:06
utkarsh2102pretty different from Debian (:14:06
Odd_Blokeddstreet: Thanks!14:06
Odd_BlokeI wound up on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBackports when searching around14:08
Odd_BlokeSo I passed `--chroot-setup-command 'cat << EOF > /etc/apt/preferences.d/test.pref` (followed by a prefereces file and EOF), is there a better way I'm missing of building with backports?14:11
ddstreetyeah, sbuild and autopkgtest are kinda difficult to use backports with unfortunately, i don't have a good recommendation for how to enable backports there, your approach is probably as good as any other14:13
ddstreetyou can set a PPA to use backports by default, so that makes it a bit easier, though using a PPA has downsides too like how long it takes to build14:13
ddstreethonestly, i don't use sbuild at all14:14
ddstreeti just use dpkg-buildpackage in a dedicated vm or container14:14
Odd_BlokeYeah, I guess if I was expecting to do this regularly I could set up a separate schroot with backports already configured.14:14
ddstreetyep that's probably the best approach14:14
Odd_Blokemk-sbuild has `--skip-updates` and `--skip-proposed`, I wonder if it could grow `--add-backports` or something similar.14:16
Odd_BlokeAnyway, I'm unblocked; thanks folks!14:17
ahasenackcpaelzer: if you are still around, do you know if a qemu live migration involves at some step a sigstop/cont on the vm? I'm thinking about the last stage, when the bulk of the data was transferred already with the vm running, but since it was running, some data wasn't sent yet. Is the vm suspended/paused then for this last transfer? And if yes, is it a sigstop/cont, or something more complicated?16:24
brycehathos, congrats on MOTU!19:12
brycehathos, btw if there are php (or other universe) packages you plan to work on that aren't already in git-ubuntu, just ping me.  I have scripts to add stuff that are easy to run, they just take some time (~hrs) to fully process.19:13
athosthanks, bryceh !!!19:55
athosack!!19:56
