I now have scripts generating all the needed networks, configurations and LXC containers (router and tester). 15:03:07 - Did some manual testing of the DUID changes by cyphermox (bug 849994) 15:03:08 Launchpad bug 849994 in network-manager (Ubuntu) "FFE: add NetworkManager DUID support" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/849994 15:03:11 - Will run a batch of manual tests of netcfg as automating them is taking longer than expected (I really need to find a way of running d-i in a LXC container ;)) 15:03:15 - iSCSI 15:03:18 - Made some progress on bug 838809. The problem is that open-iscsi is now being started at boot time ;) 15:03:19 Launchpad bug 838809 in Ubuntu Oneiric "authenticated and unauthenicated iscsi clients fails to complete boot" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/838809 15:03:21 - Need to spend more time finding a way of starting iscsid without disconnecting existing sessions. 15:03:25 - An easy workaround would be to "exit 0" when open-iscsi detects that we have run iscsistart in the initrd. This would restore the old behaviour. 15:03:28 - Problem with the workaround (and the pre-Oneiric open-iscsi) is that we only mount one lun from initramfs (the one needed for /), any other luns defined in /etc/iscsi aren't getting connected. 15:03:34 - friendly-recovery 15:03:36 - With the suggestions of James and Colin, got a bunch of debdiffs attached to bug 575469 15:03:38 Launchpad bug 575469 in friendly-recovery (Ubuntu Oneiric) "[UIFe] [FFe] recovery mode mounts filesystems read-write rather than read-only" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/575469 15:03:40 - This moves friendly-recovery out of /usr, add a read-only mode and splits recovery and single-mode into two different things. Currently waiting for the FFe and UIFe. 15:03:43 - TODO 15:03:46 - Figure out how we want to fix that open-iscsi bug 15:03:48 - Do a last seed review and update for Edubuntu, possibly dropping at least Gnome Nanny (doesn't seem to work...) 15:03:52 - Finish the automated IPv6 testing and push the code somewhere 15:03:57 - Still need to spend more time trying to get TPM working in a PPA 15:04:00 \o/ 575469 15:04:30 - NBS, http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/nbs.html looks mucher nicer now ;) 15:04:34 stgraber: what's the status of getting the ipv6 automated testing handed off to qa? 15:04:52 do we expect that in place between now and release? 15:05:08 slangasek: I'm first trying to get it working here ;) I'll have it running daily on a box of mine and will send the scripts to QA 15:05:32 slangasek: I don't expect we'll have working IPv6 in DC very soon so it may take a while until it's running on QA infrastructure 15:05:46 hmmm, ok 15:06:46 at least the current implementation runs on LXC so I can get it running on anything that I have around and has ipv6 connectivity. 15:06:51 doko: nbs> yay! 15:07:05 - and FTBFS 7x24 15:07:07 .. 15:07:40 from what we discussed at the sprint, it seemed unlikely we'd be allowed to get an IPv6 tunnel or native connectivity from the QA infrastructure, at least not quickly. 15:07:46 who did want to look at indicator-applet? 15:07:50 stgraber: maybe the test configs should include a router with a tunnel? 15:07:55 hmm 15:08:22 doko: surely that should be flagged to the desktop team to clear up? 15:08:40 I thought it had been and they kind of stalled 15:08:54 I'll assign it 15:09:00 doko: thanks 15:09:34 slangasek: I guess I could have the router act as a DNS server and HTTP proxy which might be enough to install and run some tests when we don't actually have public ipv6 connectivity 15:09:41 doko: anything else? Perhaps something you were working on during day 8 of the week, or hours 25-26 :) 15:09:53 ohh, it is, bug 829491 15:09:54 Launchpad bug 829491 in indicator-applet (Ubuntu Oneiric) "indicator-applet version 0.4.12-0ubuntu1 failed to build in oneiric" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/829491 15:10:12 * cjwatson gets slangasek a moon on a stic 15:10:14 *stick 15:10:23 no, only openjdk-7 update, fortran rebuild, and some unrelated bug fixes 15:10:31 http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/moon-on-stick.jpeg 15:10:33 deep-fried, I trust 15:10:45 haha 15:10:50 :) 15:10:55 i guess i'm up then... 15:11:01 bug 407862; bug 839588; bug 621242; bug 831102; bug 835001; bug 770882; python bug 11715 (multiarch on kubuntu); python27 for lucid work (not totally given up yet, but close :). done. 15:11:06 Launchpad bug 407862 in Rsyslog "Messages not being sent to system logs" [Wishlist,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/407862 15:11:07 Launchpad bug 839588 in python2.7 (Ubuntu) "Python 2.7 unable to find it's header files in virtualenv" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/839588 15:11:08 Launchpad bug 621242 in mocker (Ubuntu Oneiric) "[MIR] mocker" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/621242 15:11:09 Launchpad bug 831102 in python-django-nova (Ubuntu Oneiric) "python-django-nova version 0.3~git20110711-0ubuntu1 failed to build in oneiric" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/831102 15:11:10 Launchpad bug 835001 in pyacidobasic (Ubuntu Oneiric) "pyacidobasic version 1.0-3 failed to build in oneiric" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/835001 15:11:21 stgraber: could use tayga and totd to do NAT64 :-) 15:11:41 maybe 15:11:55 branch and merge proposal for apport to add the apport version to apport bug reports 15:11:58 branch and merge proposal for ubiquity apport source package hook changes 15:12:01 merge proposal / upload for dkms apport hook fixing bug 816199 15:12:02 Launchpad bug 816199 in dkms (Ubuntu) "dkms_packages.py crashed with ValueError in _apt_pkg(): package does not exist" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/816199 15:12:04 hmm, i thought i uploaded the fix for 839588 15:12:04 review and merging of bugpattern branchs from Vadim 15:12:04 review of bug patterns merge proposal(s) from RedSingularity 15:12:04 wrote, tested and added a bzr plugin for bug pattern commits 15:12:04 blog post regarding bugpattern_written bzr plugin 15:12:31 porting of patch subscription script to bug bot, modification of process to add a comment and subscriber ubuntu-sponsors to debdiff attachments 15:12:34 research into using bug_supervisor advanced search parameter in the web user interface 15:12:37 modified / updated launchpad greasemonkey tagging script to work again (been broken for about a year) 15:12:40 ubuntu bug day no package bug participation 15:12:43 ubuntu bug squad meeting 15:12:45 done 15:13:07 FTBFS; 40+ so far this week. 15:13:07 Repeated attempts to get an ubuntu-defaults-image build to work on the livefs buildds. Finally succeeded today so am unblocked on dealing with the publishing scripts; that's my next task. 15:13:11 Firefighting eglibc/apt breakage yesterday due to C.UTF-8 collation order change. 15:13:15 Arranged for oem-config et al to be on the USB images again. 15:13:17 Waiting for RT#47856 resolution to complete multiarch-translations. 15:13:20 .. 15:13:43 - Very short week; at Linux Plumbers and vacation on Tuesday. 15:13:43 - Catching up on emails. Coordinating installer testing with Gema of QA. 15:13:43 - Slideshow merges. 15:13:43 - Fixes to the wireless networking page when an AP disappears. 15:13:44 - Progress on setting the wallpaper in the GDK3 world. 15:13:47 (done) 15:14:19 cjwatson: oh, indeed, nat64 could do the trick. I'll need to poke at it once I get the rest of the test setup working :) 15:15:58 short week for me, what with being on vacation through Monday 15:16:24 proposed an FFe for plymouth to get flicker-free boot enabled with lightdm; one-liner change, but could use some more testing from folks with different video hardware 15:16:49 I can test it with the free ati drivers if that helps 15:16:50 (bug #849954) 15:16:51 Launchpad bug 849954 in plymouth (Ubuntu Oneiric) "FFe: enable flicker-free boot with lightdm" [Medium,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/849954 15:16:56 mvo: that would be most welcome! 15:17:44 also spent some time on a plane hacking on a startpar-upstart bridge, so that we can push a usable upstart into Debian 15:17:59 ...and working on email backlog 15:18:01 that's about it :) 15:18:04 jhunt: 15:18:11 Still finishing tests for Upstart job logging (necessitated 122 *new* 15:18:11 tests so far!). Would be beneficial to have access to a system with NFS 15:18:11 home directories. Merged code into Ubuntu branch and updated my 15:18:11 "upstart-testing" PPA. Works, but with caveats: display manager doesn't 15:18:11 initialize (who needs a GUI right? :), and there are minor problems with 15:18:13 dbus and getty (currently investigating). One of the new tests has found 15:18:16 a kernel bug. I've whipped up a test case and the fix looks relatively 15:18:18 easy so I might have a go at that soon. Recreated problem on bug 15:18:21 818177. Tested with new kernel but no change. Trying to better 15:18:23 understand the problem, but will need to talk to slangasek/cjwatson on 15:18:26 this one. 15:18:28 ❖ 15:18:35 I'm afraid the last time I had NFS home directories anywhere was at job-2 15:18:53 (and good riddance) 15:18:53 hey, me too! :) 15:19:07 vacation last week! 15:19:07 this week: 15:19:07 lots and lots and lots of mail catchup 15:19:07 aptdaemon: new bzr fixes snapshot reviewed/tested/uploaded 15:19:07 command-not-found-data update 15:19:07 software-center: debug database corruption issue again and hopefully fix threading race via thread specific xapiandb, review/merge lp:~mmcg069/software-center/submit-review-fixes, add simple get_title_from_html helper for the exhibits html, fix single item exhibits, show non-apps in exhibit lists as well, reenable plugins, add conflict for old oneconf, update example plugin, load plugins from the homedir as well, debug/fix exhibits banner re 15:19:13 ndering bug, include new default banner 15:19:14 apt: branch merges, cherry pick fix for sbuild breakage (lp: #816155), debug apt-ftparchive hang and fix it in lp:~mvo/apt/lucid-apt-ftparchive, cherry pick r2171 from lp:~donkult/apt/sid, fix double delete (thanks to cjwatson mostly) and upload new version 15:19:19 update-manager: debug/fix incorrect way of calling --with=python2, upload new version, branch merges 15:19:22 (EOF) 15:19:23 i have an NFS system if you need access to it 15:19:39 i use it for SELinux development, but i have a pristine setup as well that i could give you an account on 15:19:56 sorry for interrupting 15:20:04 nullcore: thanks - np :) 15:21:30 I have plenty of NFS here, but homes? yick 15:21:30 sadly i still use nfs on my nas 15:22:09 well, nfs root would be good to start with. 15:22:23 * jhunt wants a netapp :) 15:22:30 heh, not sure nfs root is where I would start :) 15:22:51 considering it's been in varying states of disrepair since upstart was introduced, I think 15:23:25 * stgraber is glad LTSP switched away from nfs root a while ago ;) 15:23:36 [TOPIC] burndown chartz 15:23:46 [LINK] http://status.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-oneiric/canonical-foundations.html 15:24:10 looks like we've got some accounting to do :) 15:24:45 I'm going through this week to postpone workitems that we know should be postponed; please do the same for your own workitems 15:25:03 so the release manager doesn't worry about all those features we're landing the day before release 15:25:44 I may come knocking on doors individually to discuss workitems as needed 15:25:52 [TOPIC] AOB 15:25:58 anything else on your minds? 15:26:20 * barry thanks cjwatson for the pointer to chdist 15:26:21 Yes. 15:26:25 On a funny note I found some unity bugs filed about dash 15:26:35 libnet-dns-perl apparently doesn't support IPv6. 15:26:45 There's a patch on http://lists.amavis.org/pipermail/amavis-users/2011-June/000462.html 15:26:46 bdmurray: errr? 15:27:03 well isn't party of unity called dash? ;-) 15:27:06 or the dash 15:27:09 oh, heh 15:27:10 Neither upstream nor the Debian maintainer are very active, so I was wondering if someone with a bit of Perl foo might see if we should get that in. 15:27:29 (related to foundations-o-ipv6-healthcheck) 15:27:32 .. 15:27:49 that looks like libnet-server-perl rather than libnet-dns-perl? 15:28:12 Yes, sorry. 15:29:06 any takers for a bit of perl? 15:29:16 I can take it 15:29:17 https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=33289 15:29:29 apparently it's already been applied in Debian svn 15:29:32 https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=67305 15:29:35 [ACTION] cjwatson to get libnet-server-perl fixed for ipv6 15:29:35 * meetingology cjwatson to get libnet-server-perl fixed for ipv6 15:29:41 cjwatson: thanks 15:29:45 cjwatson: Thanks. 15:29:45 so that's just "upload from svn" which is easy 15:30:10 That's not what Debian Git users tell me. 15:30:18 ;) 15:30:41 * cjwatson used svn for long enough that he doesn't have that particular prejudice :) 15:31:15 * slangasek has used git for long enough that he doesn't have that prejudice either ;) 15:31:19 heh, that too 15:31:32 anything else? 15:32:05 #endmeeting Generated by MeetBot 0.1.5 (http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AlanBell/mootbot)
