[10:23] <harmw> smoser: don't forget your promise :P
[13:06] <smoser> harmw, i'll look at that right now.
[13:06] <smoser> are you going to paris ods ?
[13:27] <harmw> no, afraid not
[13:29] <smoser> booo
[13:43] <harmw> :)
[14:07] <harmw> smoser: let me know if you need feedback on reviewing that merger, I haven't got much time though
[14:12] <smoser> k
[14:59] <harmw> 30minutes left :P
[17:50] <harmw> smoser: I think LP is broken
[17:50] <harmw> it still didn't send me any notification about an accepted merge request :>
[17:50] <smoser> :)
[17:51] <smoser> it should have sent you some info though
[17:51] <smoser> i've been going through bugs in cloud-init all day.
[17:51] <smoser> i do sitll paln to get on that mp thoug h today.
[17:51] <harmw> haha
[17:51] <harmw> well, I don't think I've ever submitted bugs to c-i
[17:51] <harmw> hence I didn't get any mail today :p
[17:52] <harmw> but nice, fixing bugs is also needed :)
[17:53] <TTimo> https://code.launchpad.net/~cloud-init-dev/cloud-init/trunk <- th
[17:53] <TTimo> this the main source, right?
[17:53] <harmw> yep
[17:54] <TTimo> I might try to submit my problem with not being able to use NoCloud and a seed as a bug
[17:54] <TTimo> bring some closure to the issue, well at least for me :)
[17:54] <harmw> go ahead :)

[18:15] <smoser> harmw, you still there?
[18:49] <harlowja> smoser harmw if u guys want, https://code.launchpad.net/~harlowja/cloud-init/schema-validate/+merge/231950 , probably useful for documentation purposes and validation and all that...
[18:49] <harlowja> can be progressively expanded to include other modules
[18:52] <smoser> i'm ok with that. i like it even :)
[18:53] <smoser> harlowja, if we can make jsonschema usage optional that would be goodl
[18:53] <smoser> ie, wherever it loaded it it would just try/except importerror
[18:53] <smoser> and if not there, then say "looks good to me"
[18:53] <harlowja> hmmmm, and then no do validation?
[18:53] <harlowja> k
[18:53] <harlowja> thats easy with that way of decorating stuff
[18:55] <harlowja> if done correctly we can suck these schemas into the docs somehow
[18:56] <smoser> yeah. i really like that harlowja
[18:56] <smoser> yeah, if jsonschema isn't available, then dont' do validation.
[18:57] <smoser> i'm only thinking that i still care some about precise.
[18:57] <smoser> and probably other linuxes dont have jsonschema
[18:57] <smoser> RaginBajin, you there?
[18:57] <RaginBajin> yep
[18:58] <smoser> good
[18:58] <harlowja> smoser k, updated with optionalness
[18:58] <smoser> so lookoing at your mp
[18:58] <smoser> RaginBajin, i dont like lazy unmount
[18:58] <smoser> it just seems prone to error.
[18:58] <RaginBajin> Which part do you mean
[18:59] <smoser> cloud-init admittedly should not do this... but during search-for-datasource it often mounts and unmounts devices
[18:59] <harlowja> smoser i think i might have a new cloud-init contributor guy that might want to/be ok with flushing out all the rest of the modules there
[18:59] <smoser> and if a lazy unmount happened, and then another came in and mounted...
[18:59] <smoser> then i think unexpected behavior
[18:59] <smoser> RaginBajin, why did you add "lazy mode" for umount
[19:00] <RaginBajin> because in FreeBSD there is no such thing as the -l option
[19:00] <smoser> but we didn't use -l before
[19:00] <smoser> so you didnt' have to do anything
[19:00] <RaginBajin> it's in the code that I pulled.
[19:01] <RaginBajin> http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~cloud-init-dev/cloud-init/trunk/view/head:/cloudinit/util.py#L1302
[19:01] <RaginBajin> umount_cmd = ["umount", '-l', umount]
[19:01] <smoser> stop showing me that i'm wrong!
[19:01] <RaginBajin> ha sorry
[19:02] <RaginBajin> If there is a better way, I'm all ears. That's the only way I could think that would make that option work
[19:03] <RaginBajin> I figured my crappy code would be critiqued and shown a better way.
[19:04] <smoser> bah. that code blames to harlowja
[19:04] <smoser> harlowja, why did we 'umount -l'
[19:04] <harlowja> hmmm
[19:04] <harlowja> errr
[19:04] <harlowja> not sure, lol
[19:06] <RaginBajin> Well probably because in linux it's makes systems less angry a bit.. You say just get rid of it so I can't see it, and when I'm no longer in the directory or something is using it do the work in the background
[19:06] <RaginBajin> instead FreeBSD wants to choke you out till you umount it cleaning
[19:06] <RaginBajin> cleanly*
[19:07] <smoser> RaginBajin, yeah, i understand why you want lazy
[19:07] <smoser> but i explicitly think its a bad idea here.
[19:07] <smoser> i want it unmounted now!
[19:08] <harlowja> maybe we should have that contextmanager have a lazy=True or lazy=False option?
[19:10] <harlowja> smoser didn't u add http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~cloud-init-dev/cloud-init/trunk/view/550/cloudinit/util.py?start_revid=550#L697 ;)
[19:10] <harlowja> before JH arrived, lol
[19:11] <harlowja> ;)
[19:12] <harlowja> back-in-them-olden-days
[19:12] <smoser> i'm not making this stuff up, harlowja
[19:12] <smoser> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8116527/
[19:13] <smoser> i mak ea lot of stuff up. but i dont htink i'm making htis up
[19:13] <harlowja> ;)
[19:13] <smoser> you even snuck it in
[19:14] <harlowja> lol
[19:14] <smoser> anyway. i'm gonna take it out.
[19:14] <harlowja> http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~cloud-init-dev/cloud-init/trunk/revision/517 ?
[19:14] <harlowja> lol
[19:15] <smoser> RaginBajin, so there is no 'mount -t auto' ?
[19:16] <RaginBajin> correct
[19:16] <smoser> hm.. yeah, that looks bad, harlowja
[19:16] <smoser> why would i have done that.
[19:16] <harlowja> :-P
[19:17] <RaginBajin> You have to be explicit in everything. But they don't even name their cdrom like everyone else. iso9660 vs cd9660
[19:18] <harlowja> smoser u were young back in 2011
[19:18] <harlowja> times were differnent
[19:18] <RaginBajin> had more hair, etc right?
[19:18] <smoser> that is true.
[19:18] <smoser> i hate you all.
[19:19] <smoser> next time i say that one of you is wrong, just accept it.
[19:19] <smoser> rather than proving that it is me that is wrong
[19:19] <harlowja> lol
[19:19] <smoser> ;)
[19:37] <smoser> RaginBajin, what does platform.system() show ?
[19:37] <smoser> can you let me into a system RaginBajin ? i guess i can just luanch one on ec2...
[19:39] <RaginBajin> 'FreeBSD'
[19:44] <smoser> thanks.
[19:44] <smoser> seems like a better long term thinking idea to be able to specify a list of types
[19:45] <smoser> RaginBajin, so if its not a cdrom
[19:45] <smoser> if its not a cd device
[19:45] <smoser> then we'd not try to mount with -t
[19:45] <RaginBajin> It's a CDROM device
[19:46] <RaginBajin> but it's called something else.
[19:46] <smoser> not always.
[19:46] <RaginBajin> atleast in freebsd
[19:46] <smoser> the config drive does not have to be a cdrom
[19:46] <smoser> and it can be vfat formated
[19:46] <RaginBajin> right.
[19:46] <smoser> so it could just be /dev/sdb with either iso9660 format or vfat format
[19:50] <smoser> RaginBajin, ok. lets say i booted this "freebsd" thing..
[19:50] <smoser> how would i a.) do anything
[19:50] <smoser> b.) install python
[19:51] <RaginBajin> python should come already installed.
[19:51] <RaginBajin> It shoudl work like your linux box
[19:51] <RaginBajin> just a little bit more explicitness is needed most of the time.
[19:51] <smoser> $ python -c 'import platform; print(platform.system())'
[19:51] <smoser> python: not found
[19:51] <smoser> http://www.daemonology.net/freebsd-on-ec2/
[19:52] <RaginBajin> check /usr/local/bin/python
[19:52] <RaginBajin> actually.
[19:52] <RaginBajin> /usr/local/bin/python2.7
[19:52] <RaginBajin> so you may have to create a symlink to /usr/local/bin/python
[19:53] <smoser> good user experience, that :)
[20:10] <smoser> RaginBajin, are you wliling to fix things up a bit ?
[20:10] <RaginBajin> absolutely Just let me know what you need. I'm a little tight for time today, but over the weekend I can
[20:10] <smoser> k
[20:10] <smoser> i'll put comments in there.
[20:21] <smoser> RaginBajin, do we have a prayer at mounting windows
[20:21] <smoser> er... vfat on freebsd
[20:28] <smoser> RaginBajin, thank you
[20:45] <RaginBajin> smoser I'm not sure about windows or vfat. I don't know if it has support. I assume it does
[20:46] <smoser> i dont know.
[20:46] <smoser> do my comments make sense?
[20:56] <RaginBajin> I haven't looked at them just yet
[20:57] <smoser> k
[21:06] <smoser> harmw, finally, smoser looked at your MP.
