[12:55] <juliank> oops I forgot to patch pilot today
[12:55] <juliank> and bryceh you haven't been on patch pilot duty since tuesday :D
[14:14] <luna-> 23.10 time :)
[15:15] <bryceh> oops sorry
[15:15] <bryceh> @pilot out
[18:21] <UnivrslSuprBox> Sorry to interrupt celebrations, but I'm a bit perplexed where to turn. Ubuntu 23.04 and 23.10, and Debian bookworm all released with GNU Coreutils 9.1 which is a little buggy wrt `--preserve`, `--parents`, and some other things in `cp`, `install`, and the like. lp:2017414, debian:1035531, and potentially others track it...
[18:21] -ubottu:#ubuntu-devel- Launchpad bug 2017414 in coreutils (Ubuntu) "cp --parents fails without reason" [Undecided, Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/2017414
[18:21] -ubottu:#ubuntu-devel- Debian bug 1035531 in coreutils "coreutils: fix regressions in copy dir-relative operations" [Important, Open] https://bugs.debian.org/1035531
[18:22] <UnivrslSuprBox> Coreutils 9.4 fixes all these problems, but it seems like the maintainer for coreutils in Debian hasn't uploaded in a while.
[18:23] <UnivrslSuprBox> Where would I turn to get the gears turning on a new release of coreutils of all things? Can that even be NMU'd? Seems like it's something that I or someone else would need to start work on _now_ in order to have it ready for 24.04
[21:05] <tsimonq2> UnivrslSuprBox: Hey stranger :) looks like _doko merged it last, hopefully he can give you some insight.
[21:07] <UnivrslSuprBox> tsimonq2: howdy! Guess who has a build system full of all of the things that are broken in 9.1...
[21:10] <tsimonq2> UnivrslSuprBox: Nice, heh. With coordination from Matthias and related release teams, I'm happy to sponsor related uploads to Debian or Ubuntu :)
[22:04] <Unit193> Can n be open yet?  I have a package that only falis Ubuntu autopkgtests so I have to do a few test uploads to see if it can be easily fixed. :P

[23:01] <tsimonq2> ...before I dig too far, has anyone noticed a change in quilt behavior for the worst recently?
[23:01] <tsimonq2> It loses track of which patch it's on.
[23:03] <jbicha> tsimonq2: I use gbp-pq; takes a little time to learn how to use it but it's reliable https://manpages.debian.org/gbp-pq
[23:06] <tsimonq2> jbicha: TIL, thank you :)
