tewardrbasak: i hear you have a question RE: nginx lua module that I poked bryyce about?20:49
rbasakI'm puzzled as to why we need to remove it. Doesn't a dynamically linked module in universe solve our problems?20:49
tewardrbasak: yes and no20:49
tewardhere's my consideration:20:49
tewardright now all nginx-lua module errors will present as NGINX errors20:49
rbasakApart from perhaps that introducing a lua5.1 dependency in the archive now is probably not good because we want to be phasing it out.20:49
tewardwhich means anyone having an error in the module will by default file against src:nginx20:50
tewardwhich in turn means you, myself, Bryce, and server team will have a plethora of bugs hit our radars that are NOT nginx bugs20:50
rbasakI appreciate that, but I don't think it's a reason to exclude it. We accept dynamic modules in universe in the general case.20:50
tewardand the only way to really fix those bugs is to upgrade the module and in turn affect additional dependencies20:50
rbasakWe can work around that with an apport hook providing a list of enabled modules, for example.20:51
tewardnewer nginx lua module, libluajit2 dependency (means dropping s390x and ppc64el), and additional extra openresty-core module dependencies (not packaged)20:51
rbasakI think the only thing that reason justifies is punting this to the next release because it's close to FF.20:51
tewardrbasak: i'm not adverse to this being included in the future20:51
tewardbut for now in kinetic i'd rather have it nuked so we (Debian) can focus on what we want to do with the module, updating it, etc.20:51
tewardand IMO it'salmost like an alpha-state version of the module with its new source / bin packages20:51
rbasakIt's the normal state of being for random packages in universe to be missing on some archs or get stuck in proposed, etc.20:52
tewardso I'm also for keeping it to 'next release' due to Feature Freeze20:52
tewardbryyce: ^^ awaken20:52
rbasakTo be clear, I'm not nacking the removal request.20:52
rbasakI'm just flagging some things that seem a bit odd to me.20:52
tewardrbasak: i think the primary reason is to keep 'status quo' for the current release and then future add it again20:52
tewardbut there's a plethora of issues that we need to handle for this in Debian too20:52
tewardand I don't want that spilling over down here and causing problems20:53
rbasakAsking for a stay to next cycle because we're close to FF does make sense IMHO.20:53
tewardrbasak: agreed.  also removing the binary and source currently as well until next cycle makes sense20:53
tewardbut i have to prod the other maintainers for some faster action on their end20:53
tewardthey're slow as sin recently20:53
teward(in Debian)20:53
rbasakBTW, ~ubuntu-archive should be subscribed to that bug.20:54
bryycerbasak, will do20:54
bryycedone20:54
bryyceas aluded to in the bug, it may be worth deeper thought next cycle.20:55
bryyceI'm not concerned so much about having invalid bugs reported about it, more about if it clutters the update-excuses board.  I wouldn't want +1'rs wasting time on it.20:56
rbasakThat and the gazillion other universe packages that also holds things up :)20:56
bryycerbasak, of course, but the length of the todo list is not an argument against crossing an item off the todo list ;-)20:57
bryyceanyway, I figure this is sensible followup to the nginx 1.22 remerge20:58
rbasakI think we might differ in opinion on the validity of the different arguments given, but for Kinetic, our conclusion is the same.20:58
rbasakSo let's defer the rest to K+120:58
rbasakI guess I just wanted to register my concern about some of the reasons given, to avoid mismatched expectations about the future.20:59
