-ubottu:#ubuntu-meeting- Launchpad bug 2078449 in ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu) "If packages are marked hold, we should tell the user and not upgrade by default" [Undecided, New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/207844915:11
enr0njuliank: you opened that one15:12
vorlonI thought the current behavior is already that it doesn't upgrade15:13
vorlonit just doesn't explain why15:13
vorlon(I have a package on my system that I hold, and had to un-hold most recently for mantic->noble)15:13
schopinjuliank: do you happen to have references to the 2 or 3 bugs mentioned?15:13
dbungertwill tag it for investigation15:15
adrienhe mentioned libpipewire-0.3-0t64 I think15:15
dbungerthttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/207855515:15
-ubottu:#ubuntu-meeting- Launchpad bug 2078555 in systemd (Ubuntu) "Upgrading from 22.04 to 24.04.01 breaks dnsmasq" [High, Confirmed]15:15
juliankSorry15:15
adrienor maybe I mix things up, not entirely sure15:15
juliankschopin: I failed to record them15:15
schopinthat's OK, I guess we can look through them manually.15:16
vorlonI think LP: #2078555 is wontfix.  systemd-resolved only binds to a specific address to allow for other local resolvers15:17
-ubottu:#ubuntu-meeting- Launchpad bug 2078555 in systemd (Ubuntu) "Upgrading from 22.04 to 24.04.01 breaks dnsmasq" [High, Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/207855515:17
schopinStill, it feels like a bug that it re-enabled itself?15:18
juliankSo I looked at it and we have a quirk to install it explciitöy15:18
juliankdata/DistUpgrade.cfg.jammy15:18
juliank37:PostUpgradeInstall=systemd-resolved15:18
vorlonit should be installed15:19
vorlonI guess if the correct package interfaces were used to disable it, and those didn't translate because of the move to a new package, that's a bug15:19
vorlonI don't think it's a high-priority bug tho15:19
slyonRight, we've had a bunch of bugreports where sd-resolved was missing (after it was split out as a separate package), I guess that's why we have the quirk now15:19
dbungerttriaged-medium no foundations todo?15:20

-ubottu:#ubuntu-meeting- Launchpad bug 2078436 in ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu) "Reject upgrades if packages are installed in a higher version than the target release" [Undecided, New]15:20
juliankOh yeah because systemd is upgraded first and then systemd-resolved is installed, the old data is gone15:20
juliankSo yes, about half of the upgrade bugs are people having newer versions of pipewire installed15:21
juliankNewer versions in 22.04 than available in noble15:21
juliankSo if we do that it cuts down bug triage accordingly15:21
dbungerttagging todo15:24
dbungerthttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/207861915:24
schopinDoesn't feel like a high-prio item either (although people doing u-r-u triage might disagree)15:24
-ubottu:#ubuntu-meeting- Launchpad bug 2078619 in ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu) "stale mirror prevents upgrades" [Undecided, New]15:24
schopinTo put on the roadmap for 25.04?15:26
enr0nyeah that's another common issue. Seems like we could do better for sure.15:26
dbungertwe're contending with similar mirror problems in subiquity, and looking at using mirror+ to help, maybe we want that here?15:27
bdrungPrinting an error message to the user instead of crashing would be useful.15:27
vorlon'mirror+'?15:27
dbungertapt-transport-mirror15:27
ogayotapt-transport-mirror (mirror+file:/)15:28
juliankmirror+file:/ is magic15:28
cpetehey ogayot I think we found a mirror to test15:28
vorlonI mistrust magic15:28
dbungerthah15:28
juliankAnyhow the question here is if we fail to set the mirror, should we just try archive.ubuntu.com15:28
juliankThere is some fallback already, but it doesn't handle all cases15:28
schopinHere the mirror itself is stale, do we have the necessary data to detect that?15:29
ogayotcpete: I'll play around with it :)15:29
bdrungProbably better include the user here to allow them to pick a new mirror.15:29
juliankschopin: In the sense that it does not contain the new release, yes15:29
vorlonwas this an official mirror at the time the user configured it?15:29
schopinAh. Yes, of course -_-15:29
juliankFor the other case, once my valid-until change lands we can enable it for -updates too15:29
vorlonor do they have a broken local mirror config15:29
vorlonI'm not sure I approve of more magic here in general15:29
vorlontrying to fall back to archive.u.c could also fail in the case of a corporate network; it's not like there's a guaranteed "fix"15:30
juliankIt's still better than aborting and telling the user to file a bug15:30
enr0nhm good point, I can't remember off the top off my head if we check if the current mirror has been removed from the official mirror list15:30
enr0nbut I see this with non-local mirrors often15:31
vorlonjuliank: yes, we should not tell them to file a bug :)15:31
juliankIn any case we need to do something15:31
dbungerttagging todo15:31
juliankWe can just tell them to pick a new mirror if we don't find the base-files15:32

juliankJulian has fixes ready15:32
juliankI guess we don't need to tag it todo really15:32
schopinIs Julian talking about himself at the third person? :P15:33

juliankThis needs a long spike15:36
juliankThis is breaking quite a bunch of kubuntu and ubuntu studio flavor upgrades15:36

-ubottu:#ubuntu-meeting- Launchpad bug 2078378 in ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu) "No mirror configured after sources.list rewriting" [Undecided, Triaged]15:38
schopindo we have a repro for this?15:39
juliankThe sources.list looked correct here15:39
juliankschopin: The tarball should reproduce it15:39
enr0nI think this is saying the mirror is out of date too15:39
enr0nhmm maybe not15:40
juliankNo, we did not rewrite the jammy entry for some reason only jammy-updates15:40
juliankall of them exist on the mirror15:40
juliankBut I did not investigate why it was only rewriting some15:41
dbungertthink we should tag this one as well15:41

dbungertI want to cut off there, for proposed-migration15:41

dbungertvorlon:15:41
juliankWe have like 3 packages15:41
enr0nfwiw, for the previous bug, it15:42
vorlonlibselinux/libsemanage just waiting for ruby-defaults15:42
enr0nis because it's not an official mirror. So I guess there is logic for that15:42
vorlonsetuptools, were these assigned out already?15:42
vorlonsl-modem uh cough15:43
juliankI wanted to ping tj aalton on this but got distracted by u-r-u15:45
vorlonsetuptools vs guessit: r41k0u15:46
vorlonsetuptools vs isodate: adrien15:46
vorlonsetuptools vs macsyfinder still with chriscoulson15:46
vorlonsetuptools vs mailman-hyperkitty with bdrung15:47
vorlonsetuptools vs manuel with mwhudson15:47
vorlonsetuptools vs prometheus-xmpp-alerts with tobhe15:47
bdrungsetuptools should retry against the fixed mailman-hyperkitty that I uploaded15:47
vorlonsetuptools vs pylint with andersson12315:47
vorlonsetuptools vs python-mpegdash with rkratky15:48
vorlonsetuptools vs stopit: I'll take15:48
vorlonsetuptools vs python-svg.path: ginggs15:48
ginggsvorlon: are you reassigning some of these?15:49
vorlonginggs: no just restating15:49
vorlonsetuptools vs software-properties: this was created last week but is unassigned?15:49
r41k0uis setuptools vs guessit not done? - https://tracker.debian.org/news/1561888/accepted-guessit-380-3-source-into-unstable/15:49
vorlonso xypron15:49
pushkarnkI've got an MP up for setuptools vs python-svg.path15:49
r41k0uI think it is resolved by a debian sync15:49
vorlonr41k0u: unstable is not oracular-proposed, and it's only resolved once tests get rerun in Ubuntu showing that they now pass15:50
vorlonr41k0u: so this probably just needs tests rerun15:50
bdrungi'll have a look at the python-svg.path MP15:50
ginggsvorlon: juliank said there's already a card for software-properties15:50
pushkarnkthanks bdrung15:50
vorlonginggs: yes but it was unassigned15:50
ginggsvorlon: no, another one.  juliank do you have it?15:51
vorlonfinally, sl-modem vs dkms: mkukri15:51
juliankI do not have it yet I am focusing on upgrade bugs15:52
vorlondbungert: that's all15:52
vorlonnow who uploaded ubiquity, it's time to remove that package from oracular15:52
dbungert#topic AOB15:52
ginggsjuliank: i mean the number of the jira card15:52
