16:06 <tdaitx> * openjdk-11 update with autopkgtests
16:06 <tdaitx> - seeing lots of failures in the ppa builds, disk space was reported as a problem, but vbuilders have 60 GB disk
16:06 <tdaitx> - still got failures afre removing intermediate testsuite files
16:06 <tdaitx> - arm and intel failed, ibm worked fine, launchpad team said nothing was changed so package changes were probably at fault
16:06 <tdaitx> - more often disk usage sampling finally indicated a testsuite that grew by 30 GB in less than 2 minutes (local build is faster and on a ssd)
16:06 <tdaitx> - investigating which particular tests are at "fault", then decide to either ignore them (depending on importance) or free space somewhere else
16:06 <tdaitx> * openjdk-11 migration to bionic
16:06 <tdaitx> - local rebuilds of packages that need patching and must be build with openjdk-10
16:06 <tdaitx> - sorting out what new package dependencies are being used on debian since cosmic

16:16 <cyphermox> (and this time I got the right URL)
16:16 <cyphermox> bdmurray: anything on that report you want to talk about?
16:16 <bdmurray> I noticed Adam took bug 1797335 but there isn't a card for it
16:16 <ubottu> bug 1797335 in glibc (Ubuntu) "strstr() on ubuntu18.04 8 times slower than on ubuntu16" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1797335
16:17 <bdmurray> So should we create one?
16:18 <gaughen> he's got it in the glibc sru he's working on
16:18 <gaughen> bdmurray, so yes, to creating one and it should go straight to in progress
16:18 <bdmurray> gaughen: ack
16:18 <gaughen> bdmurray, you'll create it?
16:18 <bdmurray> bug 1805490 was raised by seb
16:18 <ubottu> bug 1805490 in grub2-signed (Ubuntu) "Grub2 Failed to install "efibootmgr failed to register the boot entry: Block device required."" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1805490
16:18 <bdmurray> gaughen: when my system is working better yes
16:19 <gaughen> let me do it then
16:19 <cyphermox> bdmurray: not new
16:19 <cyphermox> I'll take it though, see if there's more to get out of this now
16:19 <gaughen> cyphermox, bdmurray and I'll card this one too
16:19 <bdmurray> cool
16:19 <cyphermox> gaughen: ta
16:20 <bdmurray> then there is bug 1804673 which may have an upstream fix
16:20 <ubottu> bug 1804673 in gnutls28 (Ubuntu) "gnutls causes gnome-music segmentation fault" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1804673
16:20 <gaughen> I have one quesiton on that last one
16:20 <cyphermox> wow
16:20 <gaughen> is this warm enough that we should look at it in the next couple of weeks, or can it wait until Jan?
16:20 <cyphermox> is that not a desktop bug?
16:21 <juliank> I'd cherry-pick the gnutls one, that should be trivial, but not sure about SRU testing
16:21 <bdmurray> no, seb said gnutls is ours which is true
16:21 <cyphermox> ok
16:21 <cyphermox> well, yeah, gnutls is ours
16:22 <cyphermox> my point was it's easy to use gnutls wrong in gnome-music that would lead to a segfault
16:22 <juliank> APT uses gnutls, so I tend to take care of it when I see it somewhere
16:22 <cyphermox> but since it's been tracked down to gnutls itself
16:22 <gaughen> I'll card this beasty also bdmurray, it does look like one we should look at
16:22 <cyphermox> juliank wants to take it?
16:22 <gaughen> sounds like it
16:22 <juliank> yeah
16:22 <cyphermox> cool
16:23 <bdmurray> Then there is bug 1805027 which I'm keeping an eye since I experience it too
16:23 <ubottu> bug 1805027 in systemd (Ubuntu) "systemd-resolved can't resolve Comcast mail server addresses" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1805027
16:24 <juliank> who uses comcast mail servers anyway?
16:25 <bdmurray> people forced to?
16:25 <cyphermox> it's a fun bug
16:26 <juliank> Can reproduce to
16:26 <cyphermox> yup
16:26 <juliank> resolvectl query works, but actually using it fails
16:26 <cyphermox> it's quite likely EDNS foobar
16:26 <juliank> (on disco)
16:26 <cyphermox> (so that inflight SRU that may or may not be in disco?)
16:27 <cyphermox> xnox isn't around to claim it, but it can probably wait until he's there?
16:27 <gaughen> so it's confirmed to NOT be addressed by the latest systemd sru?
16:27 <cyphermox> we only confirm it's not fixed in disco
16:27 <bdmurray> gaughen: no, it is not. Although I tested it and it didn't help.
16:27 <juliank> it's definitely not fixed in yesterday's disco upload
16:27 <cyphermox> no clue if the SRU is applied is disco. certainly /should/ be
16:27 <gaughen> I carded it
16:28 <cyphermox> so maybe it's not the same bug
16:28 <bdmurray> juliank: you tested it on disco?
16:28 <juliank> that includes " resolved: Increase size of TCP stub replies."
16:28 <cyphermox> we do have all the info to fix it though, so it's just a matter of how fast it needs to be addressed
16:28 <juliank> yes, with  239-7ubuntu15
16:28 <cyphermox> heh
16:28 <juliank> cyphermox: before the release
16:28 <juliank> :D
16:28 <cyphermox> well, yeah
16:28 <cyphermox> but I mean "before xnox is available" or not
16:29 <cyphermox> I can easily go debug it
16:29 <juliank> Given that this affects a small group of users, does not seem that high priority
16:29 <gaughen> cyphermox, I don't think it's that hot
16:29 <bdmurray> i think there is a danger of people modifying systems in a bad way
16:29 <cyphermox> just not sure if that's a good idea priority-wise ;)
16:29 <cyphermox> bdmurray: yeah
16:29 <gaughen> cyphermox, I don't think it's a jam it in the current iteration
16:29 <cyphermox> juliank: it affects a "small" group of many users, the most likely to modify their systems in a bad way, sadly
16:30 <bdmurray> Its what I did for my dad.
16:30 <gaughen> I've carded it and put it towards the top of general distro
16:30 <cyphermox> cool
16:30 <cyphermox> bdmurray: anything else?
16:30 <juliank> it definitely sounds like a fun bug
16:31 <bdmurray> I kinda wanted to talk about samba ownership but I guess Steve should be around for that.
16:31 <doko> is it ours?
16:31 <gaughen> doko, it's shared with server
16:31 <cyphermox> ack
16:32 <gaughen> bdmurray, I planned to chat with Josh about it later today
16:32 <cyphermox> punt until later then?
16:32 <cyphermox> #topic Team proposed-migration report
16:32 <bdmurray> Oh, it looks like somebody is on it.
16:32 <cyphermox> #link http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/proposed-migration/update_excuses_by_team.html#foundations-bugs
16:32 <cyphermox> doko:
16:33 <cyphermox> (samba is nice segway)
16:33 <doko> the only one is imagemagick
16:33 <cyphermox> ohh
16:33 <doko> freeipa is not ours, people are trying to migrate to openjdk-11 from -8
16:34 <cyphermox> ok
16:35 <rbalint> i can take imagemagick for next week, we have a history with ruby-rmagick :-)
16:36 <cyphermox> card then?
16:36 <gaughen> sure, I'll create it and put it in your queue rbalint
16:36 <cyphermox> ok; moving on
16:36 <cyphermox> #topic AOB
16:36 <cyphermox> anything else from anyone?
16:37 <rbalint> bdmurray, thanks for the monster u-u SRU review! :-)
16:37 <bdmurray> rbalint: hopefully the rest of the process is smooth
16:38 <rbalint> it looks like so so far
16:39 <cyphermox> alright
16:39 <rbalint> aob: i plan converiting low-traffic Foundations packages from bzr to git without further coordination, if you want yours to be held back please add it to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/MigratingFromBzrToGit
