[11:17] <perscitus> It's been verified by one additional person. It's not just me.
[11:48] <Laney> confirm it then
[12:05] <limcore_> dtchen: cool classroom yesterday thanks :)
[12:05] <limcore_> dtchen: is there a list of magic commands etc that we should use to debug problem more when working on a bug report
[12:18] <perscitus> wait wait.
[13:45] <arand> I'm a bit concerned about Bug #419895 and Bug #419929 whose combination is affecting more than 59 users in Bug #419488 (i.e. I'm fishing for high priorities, or temporary fixes)

[15:24] <^arky^> hi, how to use the firefox-lp-improvements stock replies feature, I have greasemonkey installed
[15:28] <mac_v> ^arky^: whats the doubt? just add the extension and you will have it in the replies
[15:29] <^arky^> how do I choice a particular reply, I am using launchpad edge
[15:29] <mac_v> why edge , use regular lp , i havent tried with edge...
[15:30] <mac_v> with regular lp it works fine
[15:31] <^arky^> ok, let me change that
[15:38] <^arky^> ok mac_v I now using regular lp, how do I select a particular stock reply?
[15:39] <mac_v> click the down arrow in the yellow bar on top , you will see the replies , if you dont see the replies yet , click reload in the +reload+
[15:39] <mac_v> i think you havent installed the extension yet
[15:40] <^arky^> the preference say, 'Refresh launchpad to apply your changes'
[15:40] <^arky^> the plugin in installed but doesn't seem to be configured
[15:52] <^arky^> does this firefox-lp-improvements work with firefox-3.5
[15:54] <^arky^> ah! got it
[15:54] <^arky^> thanks

[16:23] <ubot4> Launchpad bug 419895 in ubuntuone-client "ubuntuone bug reports lists possibly private filenames/paths" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/419895
[16:23] <mac_v> ooh! thats bad... i'll be sure not to report U1 bugs ;p
[16:25] <arand> ;) And the crash that generates those reports seems to happen to pretty much everyone currently... It does make the involved parties U1 & lauchpad look kinda bad :(
[16:29] <mac_v> arand: why dont you ping the mailing list about this , to get quicker attention
[16:30] <arand> mac_v: good Idea, I'll try to compose something appropriate.
[16:35] <arand> mac_v: that would be -devel right? or U1 and LP specific lists?
[16:36] <mac_v> U1 has its own mailng list
[16:41] <arand> mac_v: Yea, but the issue comes about because of the combination of U1 report contining private data, and launchpad not deleting those attachments when bugs are declared dupes and made public... I've asked in #ubuntuone and they were indecisive about removing this data from the reports, since the filenames may give a good hint about where U1 fails (questionable point in my opinion), so I'm guessing that a mail to the U1 mailing list mi
[16:43] <mac_v> arand: cc them to both ;)
[16:43] <arand> mac_v: What would be the best temporary fix is to simply privatise all those dupes and continue manually doing so for incoming ones... Which'll be a pain, untill either U1 removes the data from reports or the retraces gets patched..
[16:44] <arand> mac_v: LP and U1 then? (who is concened with the "apport retracing service" really)
[16:44] <mac_v> arand: i would guess devel and U1 but what the heck send it to LP too
[16:45] <arand> mac_v: Ok, let's just hope something happens quickly then, since it's a grand advertisement doing this as well :/
[16:46] <arand> Although I hope not many use U1 for seriously private files with seriously private filenames...
[16:48] <Laibsch> Hi
[16:48] * Laibsch is looking for help troubleshooting bug 407583
[16:48] <ubot4> Launchpad bug 407583 in samba "karmic smbclient fails to access NAS box" [Unknown,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/407583
[17:10] <arand> mac_v: so the lists to send to are ubuntuone-users launchpad-users and ubuntu-devel then?
[17:11] <mac_v> i dont think lp-users , lp has a devel right?
[17:12] <arand> mac_v: right you are, ok, off it goes
[18:17] <migolo> hi

[20:04] <andol> dhillon-v101: please read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBugControl
[20:04] <dhillon-v101> oh I did that, but where do I submit my application
[20:05] <andol> dhillon-v101: read again :)
[20:06] <LimCore> Ok I reproted bug 421216

[21:28] <mac_v> dtchen: hi... for the pulse audio memory leak , Bug #411274 , do you need more info? valgrind?
[21:28] <ubot4> Launchpad bug 411274 in pulseaudio "Pulsaeaudio hogs memory" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/411274
[21:30] <dtchen> mac_v: yes, that would be helpful
[21:30] <dtchen> i'll describe it briefly:
[21:31] <mac_v> $ G_SLICE=always-malloc G_DEBUG=gc-friendly valgrind -v --tool=memcheck --leak-check=full --num-callers=40 --log-file=valgrind.log pulseaudio
[21:31] <mac_v> ^would that do it?
[21:31] <mac_v> oh you are going to describe ... :) OK
[21:32] <dtchen> well, yeah, that was it, but please make sure you append -vvvv
[21:33] <mac_v> dtchen: hmm... append -vvvv? could you give me the full command so that i dont mess up , Pls :)
[21:34] <mac_v> should i do a pulseaudio -q &&.... or pulseaudio -k &&....
[21:34] <dtchen> just make you've set pulseaudio to not respawn:
[21:34] <dtchen> echo autospawn = no|tee ~/.pulse/client.conf
[21:34] <dtchen> killall pulseaudio
[21:35] <dtchen> G_SLICE=always-malloc G_DEBUG=gc-friendly valgrind -v --tool=memcheck --leak-check=full --num-callers=40 --log-file=valgrind.log pulseaudio -vvvv
[21:35] <dtchen> for GDB, it's a bit more complicated:
[21:35] <dtchen> (you also need autospawn disabled for GDB)
[21:36] <dtchen> gdb pulseaudio 2>&1 | tee ~/gdb-pulseaudio.txt
[21:36] <dtchen> set args -vvvv
[21:36] <dtchen> handle SIGXCPU SIGPWR SIG33 SIG34 SIG42 SIG43 SIG44 SIG45 SIG46 SIG47 SIG48 SIG49 SIG50 SIG51 SIG52 SIG53 SIG63 SIG62 SIG61 SIG60 SIG59 SIG58 nostop noprint
[21:36] <dtchen> set pagination 0
[21:36] <dtchen> run
[21:37] <dtchen> the valgrind output will be quite useful
[21:37] <mac_v> oh.. OK.. thank you... I'll run the valgrind and add it to the bug report... Thanks :)
[21:38] <mac_v> i'll then run gdb ,too
