Planning to spend a bit more time pushing that up the hill this week, along with switching our GRUB packaging to GCC 4.7. 16:12:34 Also continuing work on britney/autopkgtest and preparing for the 12.04.2 point release. 16:12:46 (We need to finish off the SB landings ...) 16:12:46 .. 16:12:58 indeed we do :/ 16:13:07 doko: 16:13:28 looked at the cross buildability for buildd chroots, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CrossBuilding/BuilddChroot 16:14:09 todo for the next week: evaluating ftbfs for the test rebuilds, cross build fixes 16:14:11 .. 16:14:12 I'll get the eglibc parts of that fixed along with the 2.17 upload. 16:14:22 doko: I was going to ask, I notice that dbus says 'requires python-dbus' but there's no comment on why dbus-python doesn't build 16:14:37 circular b-d 16:14:45 ok 16:14:52 * xnox fixed e2fsprogs & commented about shadow. 16:15:04 * barry was quasi-blissfully semi-offline for the xmas break. todo: finish up oneconf, and then the usual. done. 16:15:58 so I accomplished none of the things I had put on my list to work on over break, because instead I've wound up prepping for a surprise trip to China 16:16:12 \0/ awesome =) 16:16:19 which is from 5-9 Jan 16:16:21 cjwatson, should we drop versioned b-d's where the package builds otherwise? 16:16:50 doko: example? 16:16:55 cjwatson, perl 16:16:58 doko: I really think we need better ways to mangle build-deps in the build process. 16:17:01 slangasek: hopefully for fun! 16:17:15 cjwatson, or eglibc 16:17:17 doko: Cause versioned build-deps are often correct and sane (especially for people attempting to backport) 16:17:21 yeah, what infinity said, we should fix that in sbuild 16:17:23 I'll also be off this Friday as a swap day; and I won't have any of my keys with me (or even my laptop) so don't expect me to be doing any other work those days :) 16:17:31 barry: it's work :) 16:17:38 ah well 16:17:46 and I'd like to keep those around as good test cases 16:17:49 cjwatson, hmm, but that won't work for dpkg-buildpackage? 16:18:28 Yeah, the cross-fu almost needs to be in dpkg-checkbuilddeps. 16:18:43 sbuild and dpkg-checkbuilddeps, yes 16:18:44 * xnox is next, I guess..... 16:18:46 (Though sbuild also needs to know about it) 16:18:49 so other than trying to get everything in order for that trip & associated presentations next week, I still need to get the gnu-efi regression sorted out to follow through on the SB updates 16:18:54 I don't see why we can't do it for both - I just haven't got round to it yet 16:19:02 and that's probably about as much as you can expect me to get done this week 16:19:05 .. 16:19:06 xnox: I'm next but waiting for a done 16:19:10 seeing as we only really came up with the general mangling idea in Dec 16:19:45 bdmurray: hello =) sorry, I missread holiday calendar. 16:19:57 I neglected sending an update on the 19th so have some stuff to report from before the break. 16:20:07 uploaded ubuntu-release-upgrader fix for bug 1071388 16:20:07 uploaded whoopsie to quantal-proposed fixing bug 1084311 16:20:07 uploaded SRU fix for bug 1066347 16:20:07 arsenal merge proposal regarding collect-bug-data and inactive users 16:20:09 bug 1071388 in ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu Quantal) "UnicodeDecodeError in askYesNoQuestion of DistUpgradeViewText.py" [High,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1071388 16:20:11 bug 1084311 in whoopsie (Ubuntu Quantal) "modifies .uploaded time every time whoopsie starts" [High,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1084311 16:20:12 bug 1066347 in apt-clone (Ubuntu Precise) ""Reinstall Ubuntu" failed - apt-clone crashes with: KeyError: "filename './etc/apt/sources.list' not found" line 1886 in getmember in tarfile.py" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1066347 16:20:20 reported daisy bug 1090583 regarding failure to upload core dump 16:20:20 worked on source package view for errors.ubuntu.com 16:20:20 worked on team view for errors.ubuntu.com 16:20:20 patch piloted 16:20:20 SRU verification of bug 936870 16:20:22 bug 1090583 in Daisy "unable to submit a touchegg core dump to daisy" [High,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1090583 16:20:23 bug 936870 in unattended-upgrades (Ubuntu Precise) "unattended upgrade failing due to incorrectly detected conffile prompt due to "newconffile" line" [Medium,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/936870 16:20:40 this week I'll be finishing up the source package view and team view at errors.ubuntu.com 16:20:54 ⁂ done ⁂ 16:21:35 * fixed a couple FTBFS (from archive, rebuild, cross). 16:21:35 * In-progress finding what's causing partman hangs on some systems 16:21:35 * Upstart - overrides from any directory: implemented, existing tests 16:21:35 pass, now fixing memleaks & writing tests for new functionality. 16:21:54 that's it from christmas break. 16:21:58 - done - 16:22:47 xnox: is there a bug ref for these partman hangs?
