[01:54] <arges> yes?
[02:26] <psusi> just saw a question on askubuntu about installing the gdb64 package on amd64 and it wants ot remove a bunch of important packages. It looks like this is an i386 only binary with no multi-arch header, so why is it even coming up as installable from amd64?

[04:12] <ari-tczew> infinity: hey, are you gonna to get debootstrap updated in trusty (incl. utopic's script), as well?
[04:12] <Logan_> [13:55:46] <barry> infinity: are you SRU'ing a backport of debootstrap into trusty (for the utopic symlink)?
[04:12] <Logan_> [14:00:56] <infinity> barry: I hadn't prepped one but, yes, I should do so for all supported releases.
[04:15] <pitti> infinity: yes, we found out why, missing .result files; we have them now, but they are broken
[04:27] <ScottK> ari-tczew: It's in the queue for ubuntu-sru review.
[04:47] <pitti> infinity: so what needs to happen now is to roll out current lp:auto-package-testing to tachash and poke all the jenkins jobs to update themselves; I can't do that unfortunately, needs jibel

[05:41] <jayaura> I believe this is a proper channel to ask. How do I get information on a kworker thread? I hdd is continuously being written by a kworker every second. I disabled journalling.
[05:42] <jayaura> How can i get more info on this kworker? On who's behalf is it working ?
[05:42] <jayaura> And, oh yes I'm on trusty
[05:45] <jayaura> its /proc/<TID>/stack doesnt give any useful information.

[06:35] <alkisg> Hi, in 12.04+ the keyboard layout switching is managed by unity-settings-daemon instead of XKB. Due to Xorg limitations, unity-settings-daemon doesn't get notified when the layout switching shortcut is pressed inside full-screen applications that grab the keyboard (e.g. LP bug #388547).
[06:35] <alkisg> The result is that now that apps like `tuxpaint --fullscreen` etc are completely unusable for non-latin environments.
[06:35] <alkisg> In 12.04 we did manage to work around that issue by telling gnome not do manage the keyboard layout, but allow XKB to do it. In 14.04 that's not doable anymore because of unity-settings-daemon regressions.
[06:35] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 388547 in X.Org X server "Volume keys don't work inside a full-screen game" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/388547
[06:35] <alkisg> My question is, if I spend a fair bit of time trying to file bugs and send patches in that direction (let XKB manage the keyboard), is Ubuntu willing to accept them even if Gnome does not? Or should I try to solve that upstream with Gnome first?
[06:55] <dholbach> good morning
[07:56] <GunnarHj> dholbach: Hi Daniel!
[07:58] <dholbach> hi GunnarHj
[07:58] <GunnarHj> dholbach: Thanks for your help yesterday with bug 1310738.
[07:58] <ubottu> bug 1310738 in Ubuntu "Please sync svtplay-dl from debian unstable" [Wishlist,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1310738
[07:58] <GunnarHj> dholbach: Is there any chance that it can be queued to trusty as well, or would that need to be some kind of SRU?
[07:59] <dholbach> GunnarHj, hum - not sure how we go about adding new packages to stable releases
[07:59] <dholbach> ^ does anyone know? pitti maybe?
[08:01] <pitti> dholbach: it either needs to be synced to trusty-proposed *only* and then binary-copied to unicorn (not the usual approach though), or synced to utopic and uploaded as ~trusty to trusty-proposed (the usual approach)
[08:01] <pitti> GunnarHj: ^
[08:02] <GunnarHj> dholbach, pitti: Thanks pitti. Sounds like it would be easiest then to remove it from the utopic queue and queue it to trusty instead.
[08:05] <pitti> the SRU team might still insist on building the utopic sync with the utopic tool chain
[08:06] <GunnarHj> pitti: Is "and uploaded as ~trusty to trusty-proposed" something else (aka easier) than the SRU process?
[08:08] <pitti> GunnarHj: no, that is the SRU process (and it's an SRU either way)
[08:08] <GunnarHj> pitti: Ok, I see. So then I suppose I'd better wait until it gets approved to utopic, and then SRU it.
[08:10] <GunnarHj> dholbach: ^ So I just wait and apply for an SRU later on.
[08:11] <dholbach> ok cool

[09:05] <pitti> cjwatson, infinity: is http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/proposed-migration/update_excuses.html stuck or just busy?
[09:22] <cjwatson> pitti: It only cycles when the archive changes, normally
[09:23] <cjwatson> (Which is a slight problem for autopkgtests, but usually the archive is busy enough that it doesn't matter ...)
[09:23] <cjwatson> pitti: Do you need a manual run?
[09:23] <pitti> cjwatson: ah, ok
[09:23] <pitti> cjwatson: we just fixed a couple of autopkgtest bugs and the results files (which were making everything appear as RUNNING)
[09:23] <cjwatson> pitti: OK, let me run it manually
[09:23] <pitti> cjwatson: we just retriggered the worls, so maybe in an hour or so, when we have a bunch of results?
[09:23] <pitti> world, too
[09:24] <cjwatson> Oh, well, I already started it
[09:24] <cjwatson> But sure
[09:46] <dholbach> seb128, do you know if there is a reason we never updated gnome-bluetooth?
[09:46] <seb128> dholbach, "never"?
[09:46] <dholbach> sorry, I meant "since 3.8.something"
[09:46] <seb128> dholbach, the newer versions require bluez5
[09:46] <dholbach> ahhh ok
[09:46] <seb128> which is a big transition
[09:46] <seb128> why?
[09:47] <seb128> do you need something from 3.10?
[09:47] <dholbach> I was just looking at a SRU bug regarding a microsoft mouse or keyboard
[09:47] <seb128> k
[09:47] <dholbach> 3.12
[09:47] <seb128> we can probably backport selected changes
[09:47] <seb128> but updating is blocked on bluez
[09:47] <dholbach> and I helped fix a bug like that some time ago already
[09:47] <dholbach> ok, I see
[09:47] <dholbach> makes sense
[09:48] <seb128> if that's a list of devices in some xml/test list, we should backport the update
[09:48] <seb128> though I think I remember they slightly changed the format, so we might need to tweak or backport code changes as well
[09:48] <dholbach> no worries - I'll just take care of the single fix right now
[09:49] <seb128> thanks
[09:50] <dholbach> seb128, do you know if anyone had a look at bluez5 already?

[09:50] <seb128> yw
[09:50] <dholbach> seb128, you still know bug numbers by heart! :)
[09:50] <seb128> that's likely going to happen this cycle

[10:00] <doko> pitti, jibel: are gcc-4.9 autopkg tests really running=
[10:00] <doko> ?
[10:05] <cjwatson> pitti: Oh, proposed-migration crashed
[10:05] <cjwatson> In adt-britney
[10:05] <cjwatson> pitti: http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/proposed-migration/log/2014-04-25/09:23:43.log
[10:06] <cjwatson> doko: ^- hence out of date
[10:19] <jibel> cjwatson, fixed in r341
[10:20] <cjwatson> pulled, thanks
[10:21] <cjwatson> rerunning
[10:31] <jibel> doko, test crashed, re-running
[10:33] <cjwatson> pitti: http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/proposed-migration/update_excuses.html - happier?
[10:40] <doko> jibel, the subversion fail looks like an infrastructure problem
[10:45] <pitti> cjwatson: thanks; we might need a re-run in a bit
[10:46] <pitti> doko: you mean the libapache2-mod-svn install failure?
[10:46] <pitti> doko: that looks like the kind of transient failures with arches being out of sync, I'll retry it
[10:49] <doko> what should be out-of-sync at this time?
[10:50] <doko> cjwatson, infinity: any reason to keep the general freeze block?
[10:52] <doko> ahh, ruby-defaults is in place
[10:54] <pitti> doko: sorry, not out of sync; the postinst failed, not depends:
[10:57] <cjwatson> doko: I'm waiting for us to be sure of the autopkgtest stuff before dropping it
[10:58] <doko> cjwatson, sure, but libreoffice seems to be bit oversized for a test of libgcc1 ...
[10:58] <cjwatson> I mean in general
[10:59] <cjwatson> Like, making sure that we're actually picking up failures, which we weren't earlier
[10:59] <pitti> cjwatson: I think now-ish would be a good time for re-running britney; the queue is empty now, just testing a few stragglers
[10:59] <doko> cjwatson, sure, but how can you see this while the general block request i still in place?
[10:59] <pitti> to see the pass/fail/running for gcc
[11:00] <pitti> oh, no cdbs merge to do this cycle -- a first!
[11:00] <pitti> tribute to dh 9, I guess :)
[11:00] <cjwatson> doko: autopkgtest output is visible even with a block
[11:00] <cjwatson> pitti: running
[11:21] <pitti> doko: hmm, so both https://jenkins.qa.ubuntu.com/job/utopic-adt-subversion/3/ARCH=amd64,label=adt/console and https://jenkins.qa.ubuntu.com/job/utopic-adt-subversion/3/ARCH=i386,label=adt/console still fail in libapache2-mod-svn's postinst

[11:57] <pitti> cjwatson: mind running britney again? everything except apport and eglibc has finished
[11:57] <pitti> there's still an awful lot of RUNNING on current excuses; I wonder if it's just out of date, or our .result files are still buggy
[11:58] <jibel> pitti, I think that the first run from this morning with the buggy output
[11:59] <jibel> pitti, I'll retry unar to verify
[11:59] <pitti> e. g. ceph is PASS, unar's test never succeeded (also in trusty), it's broken
[11:59] <pitti> jibel: no, cjwatson restarted it an hour ago
[12:00] <pitti> jibel: thanks (can't look at logs, keeps hanging)
[12:00] <jibel> pitti, but unar for example didn't run since 0701UTC
[12:00] <jibel> which before the fix
[12:00] <jibel> +is
[12:01] <pitti> ah right, I misremembered; https://jenkins.qa.ubuntu.com/job/trusty-adt-unar/? is all green
[12:02] <jibel> pitti, it's all red but marked running
[12:02] <pitti> jibel: http://d-jenkins.ubuntu-ci:8080/job/utopic-adt-unar/5/ARCH=i386,label=adt/console doesn't look like an infrastructure problem, though
[12:02] <pitti> jibel: perhaps missing dependency?
[12:03] <pitti> (which was installed in the bigger trusty VMs)
[12:04] <jibel> pitti, it fails because there is an error on stderr "Unable to create time zone ..."
[12:05] <pitti> yes, that's the error
[12:05] <pitti> or rather, failure
[12:06] <jibel> pitti, isn't it because the base VM is provisioned differently than in trusty?
[12:06] <cjwatson> pitti: It ran by itself 12 minutes ago - is that enough?
[12:06] <pitti> jibel: yes, surely; it's certainly not something liek a missing allow-stderr, as otherwise it would have failed ealier, too
[12:07] <pitti> cjwatson: yes, I think so
[12:07] <pitti> jibel: so http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/proposed-migration/update_excuses.html still has a lot of RUNNING for stuff which finished; still something wrong with *.results?
[12:09] <jibel> pitti, that's all the tests that have been triggered before 0700
[12:10] <jibel> pitti, I re-ran unar to check if reconciliation is correct now and will do the other if it's fine
[12:10] <pitti> jibel: oh, ok; so we'll need to re-run ceph & friends?
[12:18] <jibel> pitti, in utopic VM /etc/timezone starts with a comment, is it valid?
[12:19] <jibel> pitti, if it is then it is a bug in unar testsuite
[12:19] <pitti> jibel: ah, systemd's timedatectl also fails, I'm currently looking at that
[12:20] <jibel> pitti, http://paste.ubuntu.com/7329429/
[12:20] <pitti> jibel: hm, given we ship that kind of file in cloud images, I guess/hope it is..
[12:21] <pitti> jibel: ah, in run-adt-test we copy the host's timezone into the VM, so we didn't notice
[12:23] <pitti> or rather, we set "timezone: $TZ" there, while adt-buildvm-ubuntu-cloud just hardcodes "timezone: Etc/UTC"
[12:24] <jibel> pitti, unar thinks otherwise. I added a comment in /etc/timezone and it returns a warning
[12:24] <jibel> ⟫ unar foo.zip
[12:24] <jibel> foo.zip:
[12:24] <jibel> Unable to create time zone for name: '# Created by cloud-init v. 0.7.5 on Thu, 24 Apr 2014 14:03:29 +0000
[12:25] <pitti> yes, timedatectl also fails on that
[12:26] <pitti> actually no, it doesn't stumble over the comment, timedatectl is something else
[12:27] <pitti> right, I need to filter out comments in that test
[12:29] <pitti> ok, fixed in systemd
[12:30] <pitti> jibel: I'm still not sure whether comments are legit there (and frankly it seems like unnecessarily making things hard for programs)
[12:30] <pitti> jibel: but I think it's a good idea to copy the host's timezone like in run-adt-test, I'll do that
[12:32] <kirkland> infinity: doh, thanks
[12:34] <pitti> jibel: filed bug 1312701, will do that when I have bandwidth again (need cloud image for testing)
[12:34] <ubottu> bug 1312701 in autopkgtest (Ubuntu) "VM builds: Copy host's timezone" [Medium,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1312701
[12:37] <jibel> pitti, so for unar the problem is in NSTimeZone.m in gnustep-base which loads /etc/timezone in a string and assumes it is the timezone.
[12:39] * zyga sees objc and wonders what happens in #ubuntu-devel
[12:40] <kirkland> infinity: thanks a lot for that; fix released
[12:40] <cjwatson> pitti,jibel: So is this just test setup / individual test suite problems, and we're confident that the p-m integration is working now?
=== ikonia is now known as Guest8168
[12:45] <jibel> cjwatson, I'm checking that tests marked RUNNING are leftover from this morning and going through the list of failures to confirm if they are problems in the testsuite or not
[12:49] <rbasak> Where can I get old Debian binaries - that were in sid but now superceded and never released? I'd like to reproduce an upgrade bug.
[12:49] <rbasak> Or do I need to rebuild them?
[12:50] <cjwatson> snapshot.debian.org is your best bet
[12:50] <rbasak> Ah - thanks.
=== Guest8168 is now known as ikonia
[12:59] <xnox> cjwatson: jibel: so comparing http://d-jenkins.ubuntu-ci:8080/view/Trusty/view/AutoPkgTest/ and http://d-jenkins.ubuntu-ci:8080/view/Utopic/view/AutoPkgTest/ there are "Red" tests in Trusty that are not at all present in "Utopic" view. Don't we want to trigger all tests against utopic, to have a baseline?
[12:59] <xnox> eg cherrypy3, bzrtools missing, unless i'm failing at jenkins navigation.

[13:39] <zyga> xnox: thanks
[13:39] <xnox> although that also has other caveats.
[13:39] <zyga> xnox: I noticed you uploaded a few packages to utopic yesterday
[13:40] <zyga> xnox: can I just patch that file inline quickly?
[13:40] <xnox> zyga: so 0.9.3.6 from unstable already has utopic.
[13:40] * zyga looks
[13:40] <xnox> zyga: so we just need that.
[13:41] <zyga> xnox: is that in proposed yet by any chance?
[13:41] <xnox> zyga: no it's nowhere at the moment.

[14:42] <jibel> cjwatson, http://paste.ubuntu.com/7330086/ is the list of tests potentially failed because of the new testing env. I'm fixing the 2 first points. I am not sure about u-drivers-common and need a review from pitti if he hasn't already done so
[14:43] <caribou> infinity: is it normal that lintian on Debian build (makedumpfile) complains that ppc64el is an unknown architecture ?
[14:43] <caribou> infinity: this is to remove the remaining delta b/w ubuntu & debian for makedumpfile
[14:44] <ScottK> doko: FYI, the ruby2.1 maintainer accepted the changes I needed to make to get it to build in Ubuntu for Debian and the resulting sync is waiting in the queue.
[14:46] <cjwatson> caribou: Yes, we haven't got round to teaching lintian about ppc64el yet; you can safely ignore that
[14:46] <caribou> cjwatson: ok, thought so but just wanted to be sure; thanks
[14:48] <cjwatson> jibel: OK, none of those feel like opening blockers to me - would you agree?
[14:49] <pitti> jibel: rolled out, restarting systemd and unar
[14:50] <infinity> caribou: Err, which version of lintian?
[14:50] <infinity> caribou: That should be fixed in both sid and trusty.
[14:50] <caribou> infinity: lemme check
[14:51] <caribou> infinity: 2.5.10.3
[14:51] <infinity> caribou: A version not shipped in any Ubuntu or Debian release. Well done.
[14:52] <infinity> caribou: Anyhow, 2.5.22 understands what ppc64el is, from trusty, sid, jessie, and wheezy-backports.

[14:56] <pitti> jibel: I'll look into the $HOME thing
[14:56] <xnox> caribou: in my ~/.sbuildrc i have "$run_lintian = 1;" that way lintian is run at the end of build with the right and up-to-date lintain, e.g. sid's at the end of sid build, precise at the end of precise build etc.

[14:57] <caribou> xnox: thanks; I'll take note of that

[14:58] <cjwatson> infinity: ppc64el/lintian> ah, I was assuming that because the table of file(1) output wasn't up to date that the rest wasn't either; OK

[15:00] <cjwatson> infinity: But I guess we can drop the block-all source, leave things frozen until binutils is done, and then open

[15:04] <infinity> k1l: I'll send out an email today. It is extended by a tiny bit to give some overlap and unwind confusion between the 18mo->9mo support cycle change.

[15:06] <k1l> infinity: ok. there was some info ( idont get the source anymore) that it was the 18th april. i am fine with it already beeing EOL :)

[16:18] <infinity> pitti: Is there any way of reproducing the exact state (a package list of installed packages in that environment might help, as well as the apt cmdline that I wish was echoed to the logs but isn't)
[16:18] <infinity> jibel: ^
[16:24] <jibel> infinity, I'm on it, I can reproduce it in the lab with autopkgtest/run-from-checkout subversion --- qemu cache/disks/adt-utopic-amd64-cloud.img
[16:25] <infinity> jibel: Also, how do I go about getting the right creds/access to retry jobs, so I don't keep bugging other people?
[16:26] <infinity> (Looks like a bunch failed due to a network blip or something causing DNS resolution failures)
[16:28] <jibel> infinity, someone playing with interfaces on one of the machine. I brought it offline
[16:30] <rbasak> infinity, jibel: I can't see why libapache2-mod-svn.postinst might fail, but if it does fail, it looks like it'll fail silently.
[16:31] <rbasak> Doesn't look like it could be anything but apache2 packaging (dh_apache2 etc) if it is a bug there. I can't see one.
[16:31] <infinity> rbasak: From the mangled output, it looked more likely that apache2 (or apache2-data) is failing...
[16:31] <rbasak> infinity: right, but see the last few lines.
[16:31] <infinity> But it's hard to tell, and without a reproducer I can play with locally, a bit of a mystery.
[16:32] <rbasak> That makes me pretty sure it's libapache2-mod-svn.postinst. And that fits the (broken) line 287.
[16:32] <infinity> Yeah, perhaps.
[16:37] <rbasak> infinity, jibel: reproduced. I duplicated the unpack and configure ordering. I'll dig further.

[16:56] <infinity> mvo: Sure, it's probably not critical, but since the changelog claims it affects bzip as well (which is our default), I assume it's only a matter of time before I see it on trusty like I was seeing in sid... If that was the bug causing my issue. :P
[16:59] <mvo> infinity: not sure if thats the case, but I will upload a fix nevertheless probably later tonight

[16:59] <mvo> haha
[17:00] <mvo> happy eating to you as well then
[17:09] <rbasak> infinity: it's a bug in apache2 packaging. Reproduced on sid, too. I'll file bugs.
[17:09] <rbasak> In the meantime, I don't see an easy workaround (or a trivial solution to the bug).
[17:10] <infinity> rbasak: Huh. Weird that it never tripped until now. :/
[17:10] <infinity> rbasak: I guess I'll just ignore the failure for now, since it seems touchy to reproduce.
[17:10] <rbasak> It happens only if apache2 is unpacked and not configured when libapache2-mod-svn is configured.
[17:10] <infinity> rbasak: That's a prefectly reasonable state to expect your deps to be in.
[17:10] <rbasak> libapache2-mod-svn wants to enable dav_svn, which depends on dav, which is supplied by apache2 but not enabled.
[17:11] <infinity> rbasak: The obvious solution to that would be to make a2invoke or whatever it's called be a trigger.
[17:11] <infinity> rbasak: So all the calls run at the end of the dpkg run, instead of in postinst.
[17:12] <rbasak> infinity: that would make any real problems fail in trigger though. Also, aren't triggers sort of optional, in that if dpkg decided to run triggers at different times, the bug would still occur?
[17:12] <infinity> rbasak: The broken (and easy) solution would be to change all the deps to pre-deps. Please warn them against that, as it makes apt's life WAY harder.
[17:12] <rbasak> Well, libapache2-mod-svn doesn't even depend on apache2.
[17:12] <infinity> Oh!
[17:12] <rbasak> It only tries to enable the module if it thinks that it should (because apache2 is "installed")
[17:12] <infinity> That's the bug, then.
[17:13] <rbasak> Except it just checks for the presence of /usr/sbin/apache2-mainscript-helper, which is unpacked but apache2 is not configured in this case.
[17:13] <infinity> If it depends on a module from apache2, it needs a packaging level dep as well, obviously.
[17:13] <infinity> Sorry, I misread your ordering issue, I think.
[17:13] <rbasak> It doesn't really need apache2, since they allow for /etc/apache2/ to be managed by you entirely.
[17:13] <rbasak> (and for you to only use apache2-bin)
[17:13] <rbasak> But if you *do* have apache2 installed, then installing a module will automatically enable it.
[17:13] <infinity> Well, they allow, except for the postinst failing if not.
[17:14] <infinity> Unless that's all well-guarded.
[17:14] <rbasak> It is, mostly. Except for this.
[17:14] <infinity> Curious problem, I guess.
[17:14] <rbasak> If you don't have apache2 installed, then it's supposed to just not try to do anything in /etc/apache2/

[19:50] <jobin_> Hey, all! I am trying to check the status of cron service using sudo service cron status as a non-privileged user on ubuntu 14.04 desktop 64-bit but get a status: Unknown job: cron error in return. However, if I do the same thing on ubuntu 12.04 64-bit desktop I get the appropriate result. I notice that I can check the status if I am root on 14.04. Why is this happening and how can I solve this?
[19:52] <infinity> (base)adconrad@cthulhu:~$ sudo service cron status
[19:52] <infinity> [sudo] password for adconrad:
[19:52] <infinity> cron start/running, process 1106
[19:52] <infinity> jobin_: Works for me?
[19:53] <Laney> Is it using the user session? (Can't test that here)
[19:54] <Laney> (i.e. does `status --system cron' work?)
[19:55] <jobin_> infinity: Do you mean to say you can check the status without being root on 14.04?
[19:55] <infinity> jobin_: You said you were using "sudo service cron status" which *is* root.
[19:55] <infinity> jobin_: But if you're just using "status cron", then as Laney says, you need --system
[19:55] <infinity> (base)adconrad@cthulhu:~$ status cron
[19:55] <infinity> status: Unknown job: cron
[19:55] <infinity> (base)adconrad@cthulhu:~$ status --system cron
[19:55] <infinity> cron start/running, process 1106
[19:56] <jobin_> infinity: This is what i get: sudo service cron status status: Unknown job: cron
[19:56] <infinity> (base)adconrad@cthulhu:~$ service cron status
[19:56] <infinity> status: Unknown job: cron
[19:56] <infinity> (base)adconrad@cthulhu:~$ service cron status --system
[19:56] <infinity> cron start/running, process 1106
[19:56] <infinity> If you prefer that syntax.
[19:56] <infinity> jobin_: You shouldn't need sudo/root at all, just --system
[19:57] <jobin_> Laney: Yes, if I use --system as sudo service cron status --system then i get cron start/running, process 1152
[19:57] <Laney> Job done
[19:57] <jobin_> infinity: This is what I get for service cron status: status: Unknown job: cron
[19:57] <infinity> Why your sudo is behaving differently from mine in that regard is likely a local configuation thing.
[19:57] <Laney> It's probably passing through UPSTART_SESSION
[19:57] <infinity> Maybe you're intentionally preserving your environment, while mine scrubs it.
[19:58] <infinity> Preserving environment in sudo generally considered harmful, part III.
[20:01] <jobin_> infinity: Oh yes, I see that i had aliases sudo as sudo -E for using my proxy variables, however, I get status: Unknown job: cron for service cron status but cron start/running, process 1152 for sudo service cron status
[20:01] <jobin_> Laney: I don't need to use --system for service cron status on 12.04, but have to on 14.04, why is that?
[20:02] <Laney> You have an upstart instance running in your session in 14.04, which service is looking at in preference
[20:02] <jobin_> Laney: I see that cron in /etc/init.d/cron is a soft link to upstart-jobs
[20:03] <jobin_> Laney: No, I didn't get you there
[20:03] <infinity> jobin_: You might want to add http_proxy to env_keep in /etc/sudoers instead of preserving your ENTIRE user environment with "sudo -E".
[20:03] <infinity> jobin_: You're asking for trouble doing the latter.
[20:04] <jobin_> infinity: yes, i would avoid that now on, but then how do you explain service cron status returning unknown job on 14.04 but not on 12.04?
[20:04] <Laney> jobin_: http://ifdeflinux.blogspot.co.uk/2013/04/upstart-user-sessions-in-ubuntu-raring.html is the feature
[20:04] <Laney> If that's available, which it is by default in 14.04, then service will behave differently (try to use the 'user' upstart) by default
[20:04] <infinity> jobin_: Because 14.04 uses user sessions, so "service" is looking at your user session, not the system session, and your user isn't running cron.
[20:05] <infinity> jobin_: So, "sudo service" will default to the system session (if you don't leak your user env), and "service blah blah --system" will poke at the system session bypassing your user session.
[20:06] <jobin_> infinity: And what did
[20:06] <jobin_> the version before 14.04 use?
[20:07] <infinity> jobin_: User sessions didn't exist in 12.04. I think Laney's explained this more than well enough, given this isn't a support channel.
[20:08] <jobin_> infinity & Laney: I had to explain this on askubuntu.com. Do you mind if I share this transcript publicly?
[20:08] <ScottK> jobin_: It's already public and logged.
[20:08] <infinity> It's already public.
[20:09] <jobin_> infinity: great! Thanks!

[20:36] <xnox> infinity: ah, sorted.
