bdmurray"lost some time learning that a tab after the filename in patches is needed when the filename contains spaces" that sounds awful16:05

schopinbdmurray: yeah I scratched my head vigorously when upils came to me on that one.16:08
bdmurrayCould somebody elaborate on it?16:10
vorlonwhy would you have a tab after a filename in a patch16:10
vorlonsorry16:10
vorlonwhy would you have content after a filename in a patch16:10
cpetewhy does the filename contain spaces?16:10
vorlonbecause it's legal16:10
schopinbecause patch(1) is weird that way?16:11
bdmurrayeven cpete is old enough to know don't use spaces in a filename16:11
vorlonI guell diff $oldfile $newfile means you have to have a delimeter16:11
schopinif you don't have the \t it won't be able to parse the filename correctly if it has spaces in it.16:11
vorlonoh you mean a filename with nothing after it except a magic \t ?!16:11
schopinYes.16:12
vorlonand you ended up with a patch where you had to manually add this?16:12
schopinhttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/patch/+bug/86228016:12
-ubottu:#ubuntu-meeting- Launchpad bug 862280 in patch (Ubuntu) "Patch cannot handle spaces in filenames" [Undecided, Confirmed]16:12
vorlonhngh16:12
juliankOK um let's move on?16:12
juliank#topic Release incoming bugs16:12
juliank#link http://reports.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/rls-mgr/rls-nn-incoming-bug-tasks.html#foundations-bugs16:12
schopinCombine that with people using fancy editors that will remove trailing whitespace automatically...16:12
bdmurrayWho would do that?16:13
dbungertsounds like a text editor bug16:13
juliankdoko raised bug 2049686 and assigned it to the security team16:13
-ubottu:#ubuntu-meeting- Bug 2049686 in dpkg (Ubuntu) "dpkg-buildflags: emit build flags for negated features" [High, Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/204968616:13
juliankI'm not sure why it's also tagged incoming16:13
juliankThis seems like work we need to do and not the security team?16:14
juliankWell I pinged doko on the bug for more info16:15
juliankWe can revisit it next week?16:15
juliankbug 183837216:15
-ubottu:#ubuntu-meeting- Bug 1838372 in apport (Ubuntu) "'ubuntu-bug -w' doesn't work under wayland" [Wishlist, Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/183837216:15
juliankso we said this probably isn't possible under wayland but I don't think anyone had some spare time and interest to check?16:16
schopinWe should probably create a spike card and untag.16:17
juliankcreating one16:18
juliankFR-634716:18
vorlonbut also I don't think that's noble-critical16:18
vorlonor noble-realistic16:19
juliankit's also not targeted to noble, so I guess it's ok16:19
juliankAnd I dropped the tag16:19
juliankbug 204952916:20
-ubottu:#ubuntu-meeting- Bug 2049529 in shadow (Ubuntu) "Extra ZFS-related log line with `useradd -m -R /path`" [Undecided, New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/204952916:20
juliankI remember similar bug elsewhere (but don't remember where) and I believe we should probably fix that16:20
vorlonagree16:20
julianktargeted and tagged todo16:21
Skiathat would be great! ♥16:21
juliankbug 204954016:21
-ubottu:#ubuntu-meeting- Bug 2049540 in initramfs-tools (Ubuntu) "hundreds of differences in module list between initramfs-tools version 0.142ubuntu10 and version 0.142ubuntu11" [Undecided, New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/204954016:21
vorlonyes16:22
juliankso yes, targeted and tagged todo16:22
vorlondracut-install was meant to be a drop-in replacement for previous initramfs-tools behavior so this should be treated as critical16:22
juliankI'm setting importance to high16:23
juliank#link http://reports.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/rls-mgr/rls-mm-incoming-bug-tasks.html#foundations-bugs16:23
juliankWe still only have bugs in the queue that are actually for desktop, so skipping16:24

adrienI didn't finish libxcrypt (or libcryptx?) and ruby but it's in progress16:25
danilogondolfobrowsers crashing in 3... 2... 1...16:25
juliankso vorlon I assigned I think 3 items last week in alphabetical order increasing, so we gotta kind of go backwards or something to make it fair :)16:25
vorlonheh16:25
vorlonwell 2 weeks ago is the last time I assigned anything16:25
vorlonlet's see here16:25
dbungerttextmode browsers can give better results when the proposed-migration report gets this long16:26
bdmurraydbungert: a what?16:26
adrienheh, update_excuses_by_team seems to require much more memory than update_excuses16:26
dbungertbdmurray: like links or w3m16:26
vorlonpython-werkzeug looks like last week was moved from slyon to pushkarnk16:27
vorlonpushkarnk: is this still in progress?16:27
pushkarnkvorlon: I have 2 MPs under review16:27
vorlonok16:28
vorlondebconf is assigned to enr0n - you ok to keep that?16:28
enr0nvorlon: yes - I triggered a retry earlier in the week but never saw a result, so I tried again16:29
vorlonsorry, browser crashed (uh because of that page's memory usage probably), taking a minute to get back in order here16:30
bdmurrayenr0n: and it was queued again when you retried it?16:31
juliankstill need to sort out python-apt and apt it's a bit messy right now16:31
enr0nbdmurray: yes16:31
vorlonnetplan.io vs wpa: ogayot was working on this and raised an MP against britney to badtest it which I rejected16:31
vorlonogayot: are you still working on this?16:31
ogayotvorlon: yes, I'm still working on it, with slyon's help too16:32
vorlonok16:32
vorlonlibxcrypt: adrien: are you ok to keep this?16:32
adrienyeah16:33
adrienI solved it locally, I need to do an MR16:33
vorlonapt vs systemd: I don't see this one mentioned as currently assigned16:33
vorlonso I guess that brings us to the new stuff16:33
adrienbtw, it's impacting ncurses too I think (it's purely in ruby, and everything ruby3.1 will fail)16:33
vorlonok, apt vs systemd. enr0n you uploaded systemd, do you want to follow up on this or do you want someone else to take it?16:36
vorlonlooks like there are a good number of autopkgtests needing sorted for systemd, not just apt16:37
enr0nvorlon: I am working on another systemd upload (real failures in systemd's tests), so yes consider that with me16:37
vorlonok16:37
vorlonenr0n: I assume systemd-hwe is similar, since it's your upload and it's your autopkgtests that are failing16:37
enr0nvorlon: yes, systemd-hwe needs the new systemd16:38
vorlonbut doesn't declare a versioned dependency on it?16:38
juliankheh I said the same thing but I don't remember wehre16:39
vorlon(if it needs the new systemd at runtime and you declare a versioned dependency for this the autopkgtests would just dtrt I think; and also it would dtrt on the user's system...)16:39
vorlongnutls28, I'll take; just some autopkgtests to chase on ppc64el it looks like16:39
schopinWouldn't the autopkgtests just end up with all-proposed?16:39
vorlonum and then the perl transition16:40
vorlonso I'm not going to try to dig through here to find things to assign out16:40
juliankheh16:40
vorlonjuliank: back to you :)16:40
enr0nit's just for autopkgtest; the path to a test binary changed16:41
juliankI still am sorting out apt and python-apt, enr0n are you planning any ubuntu-release-upgrader upload?16:41
vorlonenr0n: ok16:41
enr0njuliank: no nothing planned at the moment16:41
juliankOtherwise I can go and upload a version that adapts to the new deb822 ordering changes in python-apt myself16:41

juliank#topic AOB16:41
tsimonq2I know I'm not a part of this meeting, but https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxc/+bug/2039873 is something that's been going on for a while. My suggestion would be to ask Foundations to help. Either way, now you know. *bows back out*16:42
-ubottu:#ubuntu-meeting- Launchpad bug 2039873 in lxc (Ubuntu) "liblxc-dev was built with LXC_DEVEL=1 in Ubuntu 22.04 and later releases" [Undecided, Confirmed]16:42
bdmurrayI'll be out tomorrow afternoon in case anyone notices16:42
juliankThe lxc stuff is being discussed with server team16:42
tsimonq2<316:42
juliankSo deb822 ubuntu.sources will be relatively forcefully merged by python-apt and not very good at preserving local layout changes - if it can merge two paragraphs together, it will16:43
juliankYou can give them separate comments and it won't16:43
juliankWe need to revisit a deb822 native experience that is better at preserving layout, ultimately the experience would be worse with the current API without that level of merging16:44
juliank(because it needs to split up entries some times, and you then want them to not remain split if you undo your change, you know)16:45
adrienvorlon: I didn't have time to dig in the exim/gnutls one yet but it can/should be for me16:45
adrien(but I don't have a ppc64el machine which might be annoying for reproducing the issue)16:46
vorlonadrien: oh ok16:47
juliankOh we've been silent for a minute, not counting vorlon's oh ok, so I guess we can call it16:47
