I would suggest consulting cjwatson as the upstream maintainer of base-passwd, but in principle I don't see any reason we have to get user consent before changing the irc user's homedir, especially since /var/run is categorically a symlink to /run now 15:25 ack 15:25 #link http://reqorts.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/rls-mgr/rls-ff-incoming-bug-tasks.html 15:26 bug 1926819 has an MP 15:26 bug 1926819 in update-notifier (Ubuntu) "Empty MOTD on up-to-date systems (includes fix)" [High,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1926819 15:26 base-passwd> I'm fine with making that not prompt, but would like to review a patch 15:28 cjwatson: okay, thanks 15:28 then we have bug 1926925 15:28 bug 1926925 in os-prober (Ubuntu) "os-prober doesn't detect EFI boot partitions on mdraid devices in dual boot" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1926925 15:29 unless somebody has an opinion about this maybe we should save this for next week 15:29 or vorlon do you think we should card it? 15:29 not a regression, is it? 15:29 not as I read it 15:29 seems like a low-priority bug for it to not detect an existing ESP in this condition and have to create a new one 15:30 okay 15:30 notfixing then 15:31 I'm sure subiquity implements this perfectly 15:31 #topic Team proposed-migration report 15:32 #link https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/proposed-migration/update_excuses_by_team.html#foundations-bugs 15:32 there are only 3 packages waiting and they're all blocked on autopkgtests that appear to be baseline regressions 15:32 I've retried the tests and am not going to bother distributing them today 15:33 I think I saw discussion earlier about automake-1.16 vs bison but don't recall who - did anyone have interest in that? 15:33 (ideally automake-1.16 would have passing tests; but it also shouldn't block bison if they've regressed in the release pocket) 15:35 no answer, so let's move on :) 15:35 bdmurray: 15:35 #topic AOB 15:37 I'm out half of Monday and all of Tuesday. 15:38 okay, thanks everybody! 15:38 #endmeeting Generated by MeetBot 0.4.0 (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/meetingology)
