| [01:35] <CarlFK> ibex alt installer log "Oct 28 01:19:47 debootstrap: BAD signature from "Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key <ftpmaster@ubuntu.com>" | |
| [01:35] <CarlFK> this worked yesterday. I do go though apt-cache. anyone know what's going on? | |

| [09:05] <evand> xivulon: I wouldn't worry about the virus. | |
| [09:06] <evand> It's a scanner that I've never heard of before. I'd be more concerned if it was Symantec. | |
| [09:17] <davmor2> evand: I'd been more concerned if it was avg | |
| [09:18] <evand> :) | |
| [09:44] <xivulon> yep, I have installed that scanner (quite dodgy thing, half in polish) and when installed it did not find anything | |
| [09:51] <xivulon> by the way same results for 8.04.1 and nobody complained :) | |
| [09:55] <evand> wonderful | |
| [10:28] <davmor2> Just thought if it's a new antivir. It might not have tools for opening 7z file only zip and rar so everything else might be highlighted as a possible threat | |
| [10:51] <davmor2> cjwatson: you fix for edubuntu on netboot may of broken it :( | |
| [10:51] <davmor2> just trying again | |
| [10:56] <cjwatson> davmor2: you mean the thing that shouldn't be being tested? | |
| [10:57] <cjwatson> davmor2: in any case, I didn't upload my fix | |
| [10:57] <cjwatson> so it can't have broken anything | |
| [10:57] <davmor2> cjwatson: Ah that would explain it, it get's stuck at 2% any way | |
| [10:58] <cjwatson> it's just thinking, it'll get there eventually I predict | |
| [10:58] <davmor2> How long would you say? | |
| [11:03] <cjwatson> dunno :) | |
| [11:06] <davmor2> cjwatson: just done an install of kubuntu netboot along side it was on 2% for no more than 30seconds | |
| [11:07] <davmor2> it sticks at 6% for ages and then shoots up to 22% I think so I expect that pause | |
| [11:22] <davmor2> meh still stuck at 2% | |
| [17:52] <acoc> hey guys, I'm having trouble with a package's postinst script in livecd-rootfs, basically its trying to see if /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom has been changed | |
| [17:52] <acoc> the script calls for CUSTOMGDM=`cat $GDMCONF|grep "="|grep -v "#"` | |
| [17:52] <acoc> and if it hasn't been changed, it exits with a nonzero error | |
| [17:53] <acoc> can apt handle |? | |
| [18:13] <cr3> pkgsel/include looks for debs or udebs? | |
| [18:22] <cjwatson> cr3: dedbs | |
| [18:22] <cjwatson> debs | |
| [18:22] <cjwatson> acoc: apt has very little to do with postinst execution. That's several processes down the chain | |
| [18:23] <cjwatson> acoc: I need to see the whole script in order to comment | |
| [18:23] <cr3> cjwatson: aha! so in the ubuntustudio image, what might make use of the openssh-server udeb? | |
| [18:26] <acoc> cjwatson: http://pastebin.com/m3fc791f4 - line 19 fails if gdm.conf-custom is not changed, no rush and thanks | |
| [18:27] <cjwatson> cr3: it's on all images, due to network-console, a customised installation mode. see the installation guide | |
| [18:27] <cjwatson> cr3: openssh-server-udeb is not really set up for use by anything other than network-console | |
| [18:27] <cr3> cjwatson: interesting, I'll have a gander at the guide | |
| [18:28] <cjwatson> acoc: I have no idea what that thinks it's trying to achieve | |
| [18:28] <cjwatson> acoc: it's horribly overcomplicated for the only thing I can possibly imagine it's trying to do | |
| [18:29] <cjwatson> acoc: is this your code? can you explain it? | |
| [18:29] <cr3> cjwatson: it's hardware from Intel, so we're not "certifying" it in the strictest sense of the term but it's under "enablement". | |
| [18:29] <cr3> cjwatson: oups, nevermind that | |
| [18:29] <acoc> cjwatson: basically, if gdm config has been changed, the oz-desktop metafile will not replace the config | |
| [18:29] <acoc> cjwatson: and no it's not my code, I'm just trying to figure out why it's failing | |
| [18:30] <cjwatson> acoc: sure, but why would grep "=" | grep -v "#" tell you that? | |
| [18:30] <cjwatson> it's probably failing because it's totally wrong | |
| [18:30] <cjwatson> I'd just get in touch with whoever maintains that package if I were you, and get them to figure it out | |
| [18:31] <acoc> cjwatson: it's just a config file, so he was trying to strip the comments and see if anything was set (ie =) | |
| [18:31] <acoc> an unmodified file would have nothing set | |
| [18:31] <cjwatson> reading some tutorials on shell quoting might be a good idea ... | |
| [18:32] <acoc> personally, I'm learning shell scripting as I go, but besides bad looking code, is there anything wrong with what he's doing | |
| [18:32] <cjwatson> acoc: honestly, I don't know what the problem is, but it's far more likely to be a problem in the package than in livecd-rootfs. The Swiss Army Knife of shell debugging is 'set -x' at the top of the script | |
| [18:34] <acoc> I tried sed to do the same thing and it fails too (sed to stip comments and then grep) | |
| [18:34] <cjwatson> fails how? | |
| [18:34] <acoc> same error exit 1 on postinst | |
| [18:35] <cjwatson> anyway, this really isn't a channel for teaching shell scripting, sorry | |
| [18:35] <cjwatson> exit 1 => could mean anything | |
| [18:35] <cjwatson> use set -x to get an execution trace | |
| [18:35] <acoc> agreed | |
| [18:36] <acoc> alright main reason I wanted to ask here was to see if while installing there were any commands that basically couldn't be used in a postinst | |
| [18:40] <cjwatson> acoc: yes, but none that that script is using | |
| [18:41] <cjwatson> acoc: the non-zero exit might have nothing to do with that line for all you know | |
| [18:44] <acoc> cjwatson: By running it line by line I'm sure it's that line that's causing it, but I don't want to waste your time on an non installer based issue | |
| [18:45] <acoc> cjwatson: thanks for answering my question though | |
| [19:14] <jarias> hi! | |
| [19:14] <cosf> hi! | |
| [19:14] <Basti_dash> hi | |
| [19:14] <jarias> sorry about my really bad english :P but we are from #EdulinuxChile a Chilean Edubuntu based distribution | |
| [19:14] <jarias> we are trying to reduce de ubuntu instalator steps | |
| [19:15] <jarias> and...we are using preseed | |
| [19:15] <jarias> the CD was created, but it's not bootable | |
| [19:16] <cosf> mmmm..... I don't know | |
| [19:17] <jarias> maybe this isn't the best tool to do this...but we don't know any other that works | |
| [19:17] <jarias> anyone?? | |
| [19:21] <cjwatson> jarias: don't be so impatient, please, IRC is asynchronous | |
| [19:21] <cjwatson> jarias: what did you use to regenerate the .iso image file? | |
| [19:25] <cosf> this command ----> mkisofs -pad -l -r -J -V "CD Preseed" -o /tmp/cdpreseed.iso /var/cdpreseed | |
| [19:27] <jarias> cjwatson this is the command, cosf is part of the EdulinuxChile staff | |
| [19:27] <cjwatson> you haven't given any of the options that would make it bootable | |
| [19:27] <cjwatson> the command I would use (given your other options) is: mkisofs -r -V 'CD Preseed' -o /tmp/cdpreseed.iso -cache-inodes -J -l -b isolinux/isolinux.bin -c isolinux/boot.cat -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table /var/cdpreseed | |
| [19:31] <jarias> excelent! thanks cjwatson | |
| [19:35] <cjwatson> persia: did you ever think of allowing passwordless sudo when passwd/allow-password-empty is set? | |

| [21:10] <Basti_dash> what is the best option to modify the ubiquity steps??? | |
| [21:12] <superm1> cjwatson, unfortunately the incomplete language support is still coming up with that daily image from yesterday. i've put a bug together about it to track (bug 290398), but i anticipate not enough time to fix in time for release now unless it's something silly about how i'm preseeding or what i'm preseeding | |
| [21:12] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 290398 in ubiquity "Incomplete language support even with all languages preseeded" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/290398 | |
| [21:17] <Basti_dash> thanks | |
| [21:22] <cjwatson> superm1: ok, thanks | |
| [21:23] <superm1> cjwatson, also you were looking for a log regarding stuff that was getting removed consistently, i put that on bug 290400 | |
| [21:23] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 290400 in ubuntu-meta "DVD livefs always removes java packages" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/290400 | |
| [21:26] <cjwatson> superm1: ok, thanks, the reason is as predicted judging from that so we'll deal with it in jaunty | |
| [21:27] <superm1> cjwatson, it didn't appear so glancing through install.py , but is there any preseed key I could put to prevent them from getting removed? | |
| [21:28] <superm1> such as preseeding those packages as to stay installed? if not, i'm thinking I might populate some hackery into an early command to make /var/lib/ubiquity/apt-installed with them listed | |
| [21:29] <cjwatson> I don't think you can do this from an early_command; that's run from casper and ubiquity clears out /var/lib/ubiquity/apt-installed when it starts | |
| [21:30] <superm1> that's too bad. | |
| [21:30] <cjwatson> superm1: horrible hack alert | |
| [21:31] <cjwatson> d-i pkgsel/language-pack-patterns string language-pack-gnome-$LL icedtea6-plugin <etc> | |
| [21:31] <superm1> oh geez. | |
| [21:31] <cjwatson> it's not designed for that but would work :) | |
| [21:31] <superm1> yeah | |
| [21:32] <superm1> as long as it's temporary for intrepid, and works, it'll save some factory burn time. i'll give it a shot | |
| === ubott2 is now known as ubottu | |
| [23:30] <superm1> hum. this probably isn't a good sign. choosing s-chi in oem-config isn't setting the user's account into s-chi at all w/ oem-config 1.52 or 1.53. going into language support, no default language is getting set | |
