|
[08:12] <pitti> slangasek: oh, you mean because libgnuts-dev still points to 13? yeah, that's bad; I wonder why Debian did it that way |
|
[08:13] <pitti> hm, gnutls26 also builds libgnutls-dev |
|
[08:15] <slangasek> yes, but gnutls26 appears to be ftbfs in intrepid, right |
|
[08:15] <slangasek> I guess I saw that yesterday and have already forgotten :) |

[08:15] <pitti> aah |

[08:17] <slangasek> pitti: question of main promotion vs. neutering the build-dep. Your preference? |
|
[08:17] <pitti> guile 1.6 is in main |
|
[08:18] <pitti> so if we can obsolete this in favor of 1.8, that would be best IMHO |
|

|
[08:19] <pitti> argh slow ssh |
|
[08:20] <pitti> slangasek: so, I'd be fine with promoting 1.8 now and filing a milestoned bug to transition away from 1.6 |
|
[08:21] <pitti> it's just autogen, gnome-games, graphviz, and swig1.3 |

|
[08:22] <pitti> slangasek: gnome-games is fine with 1.8, seb changed it to 1.6 in hardy because only that was in main |
|
[08:23] <slangasek> ok - shall I promote it now, or do you want any kind of paperwork first? |
|
[08:23] <pitti> nah, just a new version |
|
[08:23] <pitti> I'm fine with promoting it now |
|

[08:32] <infinity> Are you guys going to want a mass-give-back after gnutls builds? |
|
[08:33] <pitti> infinity: I guess so far packages just built against gnutls13, so I don't think they actually FTBFSed? or did you notice that? |
|
[08:34] <infinity> pitti: Haven't really been watching like a hawk, to be honest, but I did notice that all my buildd queues are empty, which is usually a sign that something has gone horribly wrong. :) |
|
[08:34] <infinity> Failures build a lot faster than successes. |
|
[08:35] <infinity> (With the exception of mozart...) |
|
[08:35] <slangasek> infinity: libgnutls-dev already exists in intrepid but is the wrong version; feel free to mass-giveback, but I expect most are going to require fresh uploads for the transition |

|
[09:33] <Keybuk> something to debug |
|
[09:35] <cody-somerville> I had setup valgrind and let it run for several hours |
|
[09:35] <cody-somerville> but... then I shut off my laptop. |
|
[09:36] <seb128> I think there is a bug with a valgrind log already |

[09:50] <cody-somerville> seb128, can you take a look at this bug and clarify for the individuals who have recently commented what you feel is the most appropriate procedure? |
|
[09:51] <cody-somerville> IMHO, I would think that commenting on that bug would be the correct action since it doesn't make sense to file a new bug on a package for a version that isn't even uploaded to Ubuntu yet. |

|
[10:48] <Keybuk> or something |
|
[10:48] <Keybuk> it would return a file descriptor |
|
[10:49] <Keybuk> read() on that file descriptor would return siginfo_t structures |
|
[10:49] <Keybuk> equivalent to those that waitid() would have returned, also clearing them from the queue |
|
[10:49] <desrt> oh |
|
[10:49] <desrt> that would be really nice! |
|
[10:49] <Keybuk> wait_fd = waitfd (...) |
|
[10:49] <Keybuk> signal_fd = signalfd (...) |
|
[10:49] <desrt> basically, so you can poll it.... |
|
[10:49] <Keybuk> timer_fd = timerfd_create (...) |
|
[10:49] <Keybuk> select () |
|
[10:49] <Keybuk> yup |
|
[10:49] <Keybuk> it's the only thing you can't do with poll/select/etc. now |
|
[10:50] <desrt> wouldn't work so good for all signals.... |
|
[10:50] <Keybuk> it may even exist |
|

|
[10:50] <desrt> having to wait until you return to the mainloop to deal with SIGBUS wouldn't work so well :) |

[12:23] <dbmoodb> you ah hi i'm wanting to know when you guys will patch the intel driver which is causing me and others using laptops a really bad experience (aka go to vt then back once or twice and the comp freezes... close the screen ditto... on reopen ... i'm asking here because i can't give out hardy cd's until a cd with this fixed in it is put out -- when is the next revision of hardy coming out ?.... |
|
[12:24] <soc> gcc-4.2-base and libtotem-plparser10 cannot be updated since a few days ... is that correct or did i miss something? |
|
[12:25] <soc> removing gcc-4.2-base is not possible because many programs still depend on it ... |
|
[12:25] <soc> and the libtotem one needs an unavailable package, 'perlapi' or something like that |
|
[12:25] <dbmoodb> why is totem being given preference over gcc ? |
|
[12:26] <jdong> dbmoodb: is a bug filed already? (the devs are mostly at the UDS conference currently...) |
|
[12:26] <dbmoodb> it is filled |
|
[12:26] <jdong> soc: I've not observed that on either of my Hardy systems |
|
[12:26] <dbmoodb> oh i see jdong |
|
[12:27] <jdong> dbmoodb: what kind of hardware does this Intel bug affect (I run GMA950 with seemingly no problems doing VT switch) |
|
[12:27] <soc> jdong: oops, sorry, wanted #ubuntu+1 ... |
|
[12:27] <soc> sorry |
|

[12:33] <dbmoodb> triaged means what -- being dealt with ? |
|
[12:35] <liw> dbmoodb, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Status |
|
[12:38] <jdong> dbmoodb: triaged means cause is understood, and possible the fix has been identified |
|
[12:38] <dbmoodb> in the bug report or in within the ubuntu maintainer group ? |
|
[12:39] <jdong> dbmoodb: it can only be set by the bug team or by developers |
|
[12:40] <jdong> dbmoodb: at this point I don't see why it's triaged, I think it was at one of the false-hope stages |

|
[12:41] <dbmoodb> i will try it now |
|
[12:42] <jdong> dbmoodb: the "fix" in Debian doesn't really help us out all that much.... |
|
[12:42] <dbmoodb> ah in debian experimental |
|
[12:42] <jdong> dbmoodb: it's just updating from 2.2.1 to 2.2.99.901 prerelease drivers... doesn't really identify any changeset as the problem |
|
[12:42] <dbmoodb> not in debian anything so far as i can tell |
|
[12:42] <jdong> dbmoodb: this is strictly out of the question for Hardy |
|
[12:42] <dbmoodb> oh really |
|
[12:43] <dbmoodb> so why is firefox beta 3 in |
|
[12:43] <dbmoodb> where did you guys get that from ? |
|
[12:43] <jdong> dbmoodb: but if someone can bisect between those two releases and figure out exactly which change is the fix... |
|
[12:43] <jdong> dbmoodb: ff3 is in because that was a design decision made at the beginnning of the hardy development cycle. |
|
[12:43] <dbmoodb> oh |
|
[12:43] <jdong> dbmoodb: i.e. around this time 6 months ago |
|
[12:43] <jdong> dbmoodb: we do accept beta software, but not upgraded after a release is done! |
|
[12:44] <dbmoodb> that is fine the fix you say is in debian |
|
[12:44] <jdong> dbmoodb: you can imagine, a lot of bugfixing work went into the 2.2.1 driver in Ubuntu; upgrading blindly to a new version might fix your problem but break something else |
|
[12:44] <dbmoodb> dude.. i don't think it has ever worked except in debian etch for my laptop ... lenny was ok |
|
[12:45] <jdong> dbmoodb: if you have some knowledge about compiling source debian packages, I'd suggest trying the experimental driver on Hardy |
|
[12:45] <dbmoodb> and even then --- etch wouldn't bring the screen back on all the time... - blank (black ) computer was still on and if i was in kde it worked .. i.e i could and did close the screen |
|
[12:45] <jdong> report back if it works or not |
|
[12:45] <dbmoodb> well i'm testing that one option |
|
[12:45] <jdong> dbmoodb: identifying a "working" version is definitely a first step towards finding the fix :D |
|
[12:45] <dbmoodb> i'm not compiling it for ubuntu i would remove it |
|
[12:46] <dbmoodb> jdong: the working version is many ago |
|
[12:46] <dbmoodb> i tend to think this is a bug in gnome power manager |
|
[12:46] <dbmoodb> -- will get kde now for a test |
|
[12:47] <dbmoodb> wait wtf i never told hardy to remember my password why did it just store my wpa one ? |
|
[12:47] <dbmoodb> i said no |
|
[12:47] <dbmoodb> i didn't put a gnome password vault up... |
|
[12:52] <dbmoodb> fix is a go |
|
[12:52] <dbmoodb> i can switch consoles |
|
[12:52] <emgent> heya |
|
[12:52] <dbmoodb> --- with that option |
|
[12:53] <dbmoodb> oh wow even better than a go it is a total fix i just closed the lid nice |
|
[12:53] <jdong> dbmoodb: that's good to hear :) Did you add that info to the bug report? |
|
[12:55] <Hobbsee> dbmoodb: not an ubuntu issue, but why am i getting multiple copies of mails? please fix it. |
|
[12:55] <dbmoodb> Hobbsee: it so is |
|
[12:55] <dbmoodb> i'm on ubuntu right now |
|
[12:55] <Hobbsee> good. |
|
[12:56] <dbmoodb> and Hobbsee i want fixed to go upsteam these days not stay within ubuntu / debian |
|
[12:56] <dbmoodb> i don't want another openssl problem |
|
[12:56] <Hobbsee> then send them. |
|
[12:58] <dbmoodb> Hobbsee: multiple emails ? |
|
[12:59] * Hobbsee wonders just how many people have that particular chipset, too |
|
[13:00] <dbmoodb> a lot .... it is an intel graphics chip on a dell laptop want to look at pop-con ? |
|
[13:00] <jdong> it's one of Intel's like 20 different graphics chipsets out there today.... |
|
[13:01] <dbmoodb> it seems to be an error in bullet proof x configs jdong yes i am aware of that i think it affects a large number of them (laptops ) where acpi is used a lot more than the desktop |
|
[13:01] <Hobbsee> dbmoodb: mucs stuff. nina should have spoken to you, that multiple people are getting mass mails. |
|
[13:01] <dbmoodb> oh |
|
[13:01] <dbmoodb> that stopped you might be getting one to kubuntu and ubutu |
|
[13:01] <dbmoodb> i can fix it |
|
[13:02] <dbmoodb> i thought i removed the old one we were a bit trigger happy on the last few emails ... |
|
[13:02] <Hobbsee> cool |
|
[13:02] * Hobbsee got 6, iirc. |
|
[13:03] <dbmoodb> 6... for which event ? |
|
[13:03] <Hobbsee> the monday night grad thing. |
|
[13:04] <dbmoodb> shouldn't have |
|
[13:04] <dbmoodb> that is weird |
|
[13:06] <dbmoodb> wait you got a few from the comp mailing list that we passed on to them ? |
|

[13:38] <siretart> StevenK: do you use backuppc on prodcution systems? - or other way round: are you familiar with the package? |
|
[13:39] <StevenK> I used to |
|
[13:39] <StevenK> Somewhat familiar |
|
[13:39] <siretart> StevenK: would you like to take over the merge from debian? |
|
[13:40] <StevenK> I did the 3.0.0 merge |
|
[13:40] <siretart> StevenK: I started on it, but I don't really understand all te ubunut changes in detail |
|
[13:40] <siretart> StevenK: if you want, I can tar up what I currently have, so you don't need to start from scratch. |
|
[13:40] <\sh> oh ... backup.../me still needs to fix some bacula bugs |
|
[13:41] <\sh> well...it's a good task during linuxtag |
|
[13:41] <StevenK> I played with bacula, it's fun |
|
[13:42] <\sh> StevenK, it's not when you use the mysql backend + the qt4 frontend... |
|
[13:42] <StevenK> siretart: I'll deal. :-) |
|
[13:42] <siretart> StevenK: thanks. do you want my merge directory? |
|
[13:42] <StevenK> siretart: I think I can cope without it |
|
[13:43] <siretart> ok |
|
[13:43] <\sh> StevenK, and the other thing: bacula without ssl sucks a lot |
|
[13:43] <StevenK> I've moved on from the company I was looking at bacula for, so shrug |

[13:44] <Auzy> hey.. I'm wondering if there is a way to get xdg-open to accept program arguments |
|
[13:44] <Auzy> so I can do xdg-open sh program.sh |
|
[13:45] <guysoft42> um, hello m does anyone here know who Michel Vogt is? |
|
[13:45] <Mithrandir> guysoft42: his nick is mvo, why? |
|
[13:45] <\sh> guysoft42, mvo |
|
[13:45] <guysoft42> Martinp23, because i want to ask him about DistUpgradeViewNoninteractive.py .. i need to run it somehow |
|
[13:46] <Auzy> or if there are any alternatives to xdg-open? I need to be able to open up any file, or command in a generic way |
|
[13:46] <Martinp23> Mithrandir: ^ |
|
[13:46] <Mithrandir> Auzy: look at see? |
|
[13:47] <Auzy> hmm.. that does look better mithrandir |
|
[13:48] <Auzy> I'll give it a try now (its the only thing stopping my program being released) |
|
[13:49] <guysoft42> is there anyone here that knows maybe why DistUpgradeViewNoninteractive.py exists, but its not really accessed by anything? and is it possible to use it somehow? |
|
[13:50] <Auzy> sweeet, you are a genius Mithrandir |
|
[13:50] <\sh> guysoft42, what software? |
|
[13:50] * Auzy hugs system() |
|
[13:52] <Auzy> ahh, no.. crap, wont work Mithrandir, its just a viewer |
|
[13:52] <guysoft42> \sh, its a part of the update manager. i basically want to run the update manager, and make it act non-interactive (like placing DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive ) . but no option exists in the code, apart from this file. i also tried fooling it and replacing it with the DistUpgradeViewGTK.py file, but that didnt help |
|
[13:55] <\sh> guysoft42, oh update-manager...the secret software desire of "please let me understands mvos logic here and there" ... yeah...you need mvo |
|
[13:58] <guysoft42> \sh, where can i find him? does he come here? for all i care i can give him a phone call, this is kinda important to me |
|
[13:59] <\sh> guysoft42, I think mvo is somewhere attending a session during UDS prague... |

|
[14:04] <guysoft42> \sh, well , for a start i can go looking at #ubuntu-devel-summit |
|
[14:05] <guysoft42> \sh, do you think it would be alittle out of order going there and asking "has anyone seen mvo?" |
|
[14:06] <cody-somerville> guysoft42, no |
|
[14:06] <Pici> guysoft42: try /whois mvo and /msg nickserv info mvo looks like he was last on irc (or at least last identified) about a day ago |
|
[14:07] <guysoft42> he was here a day ago, but come to think if, it.. if there is someone on irc neaby him here, maybe he can call him to have a look |
|
[14:08] <joaopinto> He is at the UDS judging from a blog :P |
|
[14:09] <guysoft42> joaopinto, i know i was just told.. so i was aking now on #ubuntu-devel-summit if anyone knows where he is |
|
[14:09] <stgraber> guysoft42: if he's not on IRC that's probably because he's attending a session |
|
[14:09] <guysoft42> stgraber, he was here a day or so.. i am sure he is busy |
|
[14:10] <stgraber> UDS finishes at 18, maybe you can get it then before he goes out for dinner |
|
[14:26] <Daenyth> Hi, I know this isn't really the right place, but I thought that since ubuntu uses notification-daemon a lot, I might ask here... Does anyone know of a place to find help using notify-send in scripts? |
|
[14:26] <Daenyth> or just in general, tutorials, guides, or documentation? |
|
[14:27] * Hobbsee wonders who she can bribe to do some work for her. |

[14:29] <Auzy> thanks all, got a workaround |

[14:50] <guysoft42> \sh, why is the update manger pulling code it already has on in its package... thats what DistUpgradeFetcherCore.py is for.. |
|
[14:50] * guysoft42 is confused |
|
[14:52] <\sh> guysoft42, I already had two tries to understand the code...I failed badly...so I'll leave it to mvo to explain the secrets ;) |
|
[14:53] <guysoft42> \sh, and he is in Pruge.. and i need to solve this one as quick as possible |
|
[14:53] <ion_> guysoft: Just a guess: the version of update-manager in Ubuntu 15.04 might not have all the required stuff to properly upgrade to Ubuntu 15.10, so better fetch the most recent dist-upgrade code. |
|
[14:53] <guysoft42> \sh, i understand the code.. but its kinda strange |
|
[14:54] <guysoft42> ion_, yes, but then why keep in on the drive in the first place - so ill try and hack it and then see its not at all used |
|
[15:08] <PsySine> could someone give me a link to information on how the localized folder names in ~ are implemented? |

[15:09] <liw> PsySine, I don't have a ready link, but I think it's on freedesktop.org |
|
[15:10] <PsySine> thanks, i'll take a look |
|
[15:11] <ion_> The xdg-user-dirs{,-gtk} packages handle that AFAIU. |

[15:21] <guysoft42> ok, this is strange, this didn't work : ( while true; do export DEBIAN_FRONTEND="noninteractive"; done ) & sudo do-release-upgrade |
|
[15:22] <\sh> guysoft42, yuk...you won't get DEBIAN_FRONTEND inside your sudo shell imho |
|
[15:23] <guysoft42> \sh, hmm, let me try that |
|
[15:25] <\sh> guysoft42, I even wonder if export DEBIAN_FRONTEND="noninteractive" ; sudo -E do-release-upgrade works ...( -E is preserve env) |
|
[15:25] <guysoft42> \sh, doesnt seem to work :( , let me try your command |
|
[15:27] <guysoft42> \sh, sudo illedal option -e ?? |
|
[15:28] <\sh> -E |

[15:30] <Auzy> guys, is there something better then sourceforge out there? |
|
[15:30] <Auzy> I think sourceforge hates me :( |
|
[15:30] <guysoft42> Auzy, i know some developers that have trouble with SF go to berlios. i still personally use SF |
|
[15:31] <Auzy> I mean, I like the features, but sourceforge seems so danged slow |
|
[15:31] <guysoft42> \sh, maybe there is an internal sudo call within do-release-upgrade then |
|
[15:31] <guysoft42> \sh, that will mess it up for me |
|
[15:31] <Auzy> each commit for even 1 file takes forever for me |
|
[15:32] <Auzy> might check berlios though |
