[00:09] slangasek: hi :-) [00:10] Nafallo: hey-o [00:10] slangasek: I haz release question :-) [00:11] I haz release answers! [00:11] slangasek: since we are pushing this 3G thing quite a lot in the release notes, would a small update to hal-info be able to make it into the archive before final is made? [00:12] it has a chance, at least [00:12] basically adding four usb device ids and have support for four popular nokia phones. [00:12] their flagship N96 being one of them. that one is on every damn advertisement incl. mobiles in the UK right now :-) [00:13] so support OOTB would be handy :-) [00:14] slangasek: what do you think. should I prep a debdiff for it? :-) [00:15] Nafallo: sure [00:15] slangasek: perfect. I'll go to work right now with it :-) [00:15] Nafallo, while you're at it, if hal-info is being uploaded, squeeze 288888 in too maybe? [00:16] bug 288888 that is [00:16] Launchpad bug 288888 in hal-info "Dell 5720 Sprint device not detected by NetworkManager" [Wishlist,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/288888 [00:16] i already got it landed upstream [00:16] * Nafallo looks [00:16] I'd imagine that hal-info will be getting a bit of SRUing. [00:18] wgrant: we should support as much as possible, and if each new device comes of a cost of 5 character whitelisting I can't see a reason not too include something that cheap. [00:18] Nafallo: Yep. [00:20] does hal have facilities for pulling fdi files from /etc too? I'm thinking maybe a session about discussing a tool for generating an FDI file for testing purposes, and then filing a bug to get it added if it works properly [00:20] superm1: /etc/hal/fdi/policy [00:20] You can drop whatever you want in there. [00:20] I think I've altered all wiki docs to put things there rather than /usr. [00:21] wgrant, yup that'd be exactly what I was thinking. I'll think more about this type of tool and what would be involved then === RAOF_ is now known as RAOF [00:34] does anyone know what kind of restrictions the guest account has? for some reason under the guest account OOo can't run [00:38] calc: They're very nasty. See /etc/apparmor.d/gdm-guest-session [00:44] Woot. NBS is empty [00:45] superm1: ehrm. the dell usbid is different from the bug and in that commit you link to. can you confirm if it's 34 or 44? [00:48] Nafallo, woops, that's a typo from when i made the patch to submit [00:48] Nafallo, the one in the bug is right [00:48] i'll send an email up to the ML [00:49] superm1: ta. [00:52] Nafallo, good eyes on that catch :) [00:52] :-) [00:55] slangasek: thoughts on bug 284961 ?

[00:57] Nafallo: adding to what package? The bug seems to be filed against two packages [00:57] slangasek: hal-info [00:57] slangasek: basically get it recognised as a modem and not support mode switching. [00:58] "not support mode switching"? what does that mean? [00:58] slangasek: it switches between mass storage and modem (aiui?) [00:58] i vaguely recall arne talking about them at uds [00:59] and we're going to include an .fdi file that prohibits using the device in the other mode? [00:59] the mass storage side has the windows driver in it, iirc [00:59] well, are we sure of that? [00:59] i'm not... ask arne :) [00:59] this doesn't sound like an obvious regression-free change to me [00:59] * calc reading bug now [01:00] Nafallo: if you're not confident in the correctness of the fix per se, then please leave it for SRU [01:00] slangasek: i'd ask arne to review that bug [01:00] * Nafallo checks up on ReZero [01:00] since he seemed to be heading up the 3g modem stuff at least used to be [01:01] slangasek: oki. I agree :-) [01:01] Keybuk | mdz: mind moderating my post to ubuntu-devel-announce? [01:01] rezero is a utility to disable the ZeroCD (fake USB CD-Rom) [01:01] temporarily at run time for Option 3G cards. [01:01] slangasek: ^-- I think I'll let go of that one :-) [01:02] ok :) [01:02] three bugs less \o/ [01:03] and four nokias and a dell card supported :-) [01:03] right, we shouldnt try to tackle modeswitch devices right before release ;) ... in future drivers should support that properly. only solutions available are hacky and not suitable for mass-rollout [01:05] I have two modeswitch devices : hardlocking in either mode would be very annoying. [01:06] (mine pass different USB device IDs, so I'm not affected by the bug, but I do use the use-case) [01:18] slangasek: http://home.nafallo.info/bugs/hal-info_20081013-0ubuntu3.debdiff [01:18] slangasek: also uploaded to my PPA [01:19] already building -) [01:19] on a 5U server ;-) [01:25] 5u is a bad thing O_o [01:26] o_o; [01:26] no necessarily :-) [01:26] what makes good use of a 5u chassis? [01:27] that box :-) [01:27] anyway. forget I said anything :-P [01:28] last 5u box i had was crashy junk :/ [01:29] you're generalizing about servers based on their size? :) [01:30] yes! [01:31] ehrm. where did my binary go... [01:32] Nafallo: You'll see it in 8 minutes, or you can hack URLs.

[01:39] slangasek: hehe. I know. but you're like the only core-dev I can see awake ;-) [01:39] since that means either one fewer set of eyeballs on the upload than normal, or it means reducing the pool of available reviewers [01:40] asac: are you awake?

The package is in the joyous position of being neither installable nor buildable and it'd need to be completely ported to KDE4 to get out of that position. [03:50] Launchpad bug 288949 in boson-music "Please remove boson, boson-data, and boson-music source and binary: Boson is uninstallable and unbuildable in Intrepid" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/288949 [03:50] ScottK: Will do, when I stop getting distracted [03:51] StevenK: Thanks. [03:51] I figured you might need a break for some fun. [03:53] if a source package builds lots of binary packages and one of the binary packages goes away in a new version shouldn't the old version of the binary package not be there to install either? [03:54] No, it just becomes NBS. [03:54] And an archive admin needs to remove it. [03:54] ah [03:54] But I thought it was said that NBS was empty a few hours ago. [03:55] It is empty. [03:55] openoffice.org-ogltrans on amd64 shouldn't still be installable on intrepid [03:55] * wgrant checks. [03:55] unless i am misunderstanding something [03:55] It's arch-specific? [03:55] yes [03:55] there is a version for i386 still but the amd64 version is broken [03:56] so it went away for the newer builds [03:56] Bug #276629, perhaps.

[04:15] persia, ping [04:17] persia, I can confirm the cegui-mk4 maintainer has no clue what they are doing [04:17] persia, SILLY still isn't compiled in the latest upstream. [04:17] ^package [04:17] NCommander, You're saying it's complex enough that you think it needs an SRU rather than a quickfix? [04:18] Unless i'm mistaken [04:18] This is backports realm because we need a new library in intrepid [04:18] * NCommander is still making sure the missing codec actually isn't packaged [04:18] NCommander, Thanks for looking. Please comment at http://qa.ubuntuwire.com/bugs/rcbugs/ [04:18] oh [04:18] persia, there is a second work around [04:19] Hold on [04:19] As long as a PNG supported backend is compiled [04:19] smc can be made to work [04:19] Given the list of codecs that support PNG [04:19] minimally invasive workarounds are where we are today :) [04:19] This can be fixed [04:19] persia, well, if this workaround holds water so the speak, we can fix this bug [04:19] * NCommander first opens the debian bug, and points the maintainer to the build log [04:20] * NCommander looks up how to re-open a bug [04:21] NCommander: For debbugs? found [04:21] * NCommander nods [04:22] thanks [04:22] Does it need to be reopened in Debian? [04:22] persia, I'm cooking a fix now [04:22] persia, yeah [04:22] persia, not the smc one [04:22] Darn. [04:22] a bug in cegui [04:22] The maintainer is smoking crack since SILLY wasn't uploaded, and there are warnings in the build log about it [04:23] But I can fix smc in intrepid [04:23] persia, was there an Ubuntu bug? [04:24] TheMuso: #274124 likely needs another fix; at least one person has confirmed that 70pulseaudio fails whereas 59pulseaudio does not fail [04:25] NCommander, Not that I saw : just an entry on the RCbugs list. [04:25] crimsun: Trouble is that will cause pulse to run before dbus, and pulse/hal etc uses dbus. [04:25] persia, ok, we need an ack from release because this adds a new feature (the library is compiled with an additional codec), [04:25] persia, and well, an ack in general since its final freeze [04:26] TheMuso: hmm, currently, is dbus invoked via the GNOME session script or via 75dbus_dbus-launch? [04:26] crimsun: by the latter. [04:27] TheMuso: ok, so we're currently counting on 75dbus_dbus-launch completing before 70pulseaudio does? [04:27] NCommander, Then we need a bug, with a patch, and request to MOTU-Release. [04:27] persia, well, there are no code fixes, just a build-dep added [04:27] * NCommander looks up what he needs in the FFe [04:27] After I confirm this fix work [04:28] crimsun: it doesn't quite work like that. Each script adds their executable to the STARTUP variable, which the last file executes: 99x11-common_start [04:28] 6/c [04:28] ScottK, what are your bug?

[04:31] it doesn't appear to have broken, but I'll gather more testers in the next day [04:32] ok [04:34] NCommander: I'd at least like to distill what's there into as reasonable an upstream bug as we can. They're releasing a new version in a week and a half and their RCs don't usually get a lot of testing, so this is likely news for them. [04:34] ScottK, can you reproduce? [04:34] The backtrace is giving me very little so to speak [04:35] (it looks like thunderbird and clamav's talk to each other over sockets, and thunderbird sent a bad command causing the segfault) [04:35] But thats just specuation without some serious debugging [04:35] I haven't had any crashes here, but I don't have Thunderbird or said plugin. [04:35] Has that plugin been binary rebuilt against the new API/ABI? [04:36] It's a non-packaged plugin, but the clamd API is pretty stable. [04:36] It's libclamav that's all over the map. [04:37] I don't think this plugin compiles against any clam protocol [04:37] No. It just talks across the socket. [04:37] My guess? Bad data [04:37] Granted [04:38] That shouldn't cause a segfault [04:38] Yes. [04:38] Crashes are by definition bugs. [04:38] * NCommander grumbles [04:38] I have no real interest in weeding bugs out of clamav, but I can help improve the bug report if I can reproduce it [04:38] OK.
