 15:06:16 <stokachu> ...

 15:06:28 <ev> - Short week; holiday on Tuesday.

 15:06:28 <ev> - Lots of work on the debconf GTK+ redesign:

 15:06:28 <ev> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ErrorTracker#When_there_is_a_Debconf_prompt

 15:06:28 <ev> - Built a new set of tests around the dialogs. There were a lot of things

 15:06:28 <ev> that were already broken that this caught, like the password dialog not

 15:06:29 <ev> handling a default one.

 15:06:29 <ev> - Implemented all of the dialog types. Just need to handle packing the

 15:06:30 <ev> select and multiselect types into a scrolled window when there's more than

 15:06:30 <ev> 6 items.

 15:06:35 <ev> - Started documenting how people can contribute to errors.ubuntu.com and

 15:06:35 <ev> dumping my personal todo list into bug reports:

 15:06:35 <ev> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ErrorTracker/Contributing

 15:06:35 <ev> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ErrorTracker/Contributing/Debconf

 15:06:35 <ev> - Sat down with Matthew to come up for a better design to the compiz/apport

 15:06:36 <ev> application hang dialog. The implementation is mostly there, but I'll need

 15:06:36 <ev> to spend at least a day on the changes he's going to create as a result of

 15:06:37 <ev> our discussion.

 15:06:39 <ev> - Continued discussion with Martin over my API for applications handling

 15:06:39 <ev> recoverable errors in apport. We have a fairly straightforward plan that

 15:06:40 <ev> involves passing the data over stdout to a special apport binary,

 15:06:40 <ev> nul-separated. This replaces the existing attempt at a solution which used

 15:07:03 <ogra_> .. ?

 15:07:13 <stokachu> i think he flooded himself offline

 15:07:17 <ogra_> haha

 15:07:29 <ev> what, me?

 15:07:35 <cjwatson> 16:06 <ev> nul-separated. This replaces the existing attempt at a solution which used

 15:07:38 <cjwatson> (end)

 15:07:39 <ev> I HATE IRC

 15:07:43 <stokachu> lol

 15:07:52 <ev> nul-separated. This replaces the existing attempt at a solution which used

 15:07:53 <ev> DBus.

 15:08:37 <bdmurray> some holidays last week

 15:08:52 <bdmurray> ⌁ done ⌁

 15:09:21 <barry> status for two weeks since last wed was a usa holiday: rather weird couple of weeks because of weather issues, but anyway. bug 1018579, bug 1016170, bug 1019618, bug 823150, spun python-mode 6.0.10 for debian. worked a bit on dbus merge sid->quantal but it's tricky so stalled. i continue to work on port of xapian to python 3 via cython. mostly going well, but it's make-progress-hit-roadblock-rinse-repeat.

 15:17:17 <stokachu> other than the 2 bugs im in progress on, are there other multiarch that need attention?

 15:18:03 <cjwatson> bdmurray: seb128 and tvoss were discussing that earlier on -devel; seb128 was going to grab doko about it when he's next online

 15:19:25 <cjwatson> stokachu: there's bug 990761 in partner; infinity was looking at that yesterday, but might not mind having it taken off him. (I think my last comment in that bug may be a bit simplistic, since it's not clear that acroread has been converted to expect multiarch; there's more detail in the duplicate bug 998837.)

 15:19:29 <ubottu> Launchpad bug 990761 in acroread (Ubuntu) "duplicate for #998837 acroread 9.5.1 is not installable on Ubuntu Precise amd64 system" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/990761

 15:19:33 <stokachu> these last two finish the requirements needed for lotus notes on amd64

 15:19:42 <cjwatson> 1022864 is such a BS critical :)

 15:19:58 * cjwatson drops to high

 15:20:23 <stokachu> cjwatson: want me to put those on my list?

 15:20:48 <cjwatson> stokachu: If you wouldn't mind, I think it'd be helpful

 15:21:03 <stokachu> cjwatson: ok ive got them added to be worked on

 15:21:12 <cjwatson> Does anyone know what deals with gtk-theme migration? it's not ubuntu-release-upgrader, and I suspect it's something in desktop

 15:21:29 <ev> no idea

 15:22:04 <cjwatson> Maybe gsettings-desktop-schemas since that ships that gsettings schema

 15:22:11 <bdmurray> if it is affecting precise is the ubuntu-release-upgrader task really accurate?

 15:22:24 <cjwatson> bdmurray: Probably not, but it's inaccurate anyway

 15:23:09 <cjwatson> Sent over to gsettings-desktop-schema and desktop can worry about it

 15:25:44 <cjwatson> bug 1021293 has also come up for 12.04, and so far I haven't had time to figure it out

 15:25:46 <ubottu> Launchpad bug 1021293 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "Ubuntu 12.04 install stalls when doing apt-get upgrade" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1021293

 15:26:23 <stokachu> i'd take it but i think im at my threshold

 15:26:39 <cjwatson> Yeah, I may still get to it after all but wanted to mention it

 15:27:13 <stokachu> ill add it to my list anyway and see if i can contribute

 15:27:37 <cjwatson> OK. Suspect it needs strace -f attached at an appropriate point, since it already has debconf debugging and that isn't being informative enough

 15:28:14 <cjwatson> #topic AOB

 15:28:15 <cjwatson> anything else?

 15:29:15 <stokachu> oh

 15:29:25 <stokachu> +1 is it recommended to use pbuilder or sbuild?

 15:29:41 <stokachu> ive just been using pbuilder but it sounds like sbuild can do some sort of resume building

 15:29:43 * barry prefers sbuild

 15:30:05 <ev> stokachu: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FoundationsTeam/PreferredTechnologies#Building

 15:30:07 <stokachu> launchpad uses sbuild for their build service correct?

 15:30:28 <stokachu> ev: awesome! thanks

 15:30:32 <barry> stokachu: sbuild has lots of nice hooks, and when the build goes awry, you can do several things to help with debugging

 15:31:00 <stokachu> awesome thats what i needed

 15:31:03 <barry> stokachu: also: http://www.wefearchange.org/2011/09/sbuild-with-local-newer-dependencies.html

 15:31:23 <stokachu> barry: nice got it bookmarked :D

 15:32:26 <cjwatson> stokachu: Launchpad uses an old fork of sbuild

 15:32:45 <cjwatson> One of these days maybe we'll get it current

 15:33:03 <cjwatson> But yeah, that would be my recommendation too

 15:33:12 <stokachu> ok sweet, thanks guys

 15:34:48 <cjwatson> all right

    14:13:44 <phillw> #chair balloons

    14:13:44 <meetingology> Current chairs: balloons phillw

    14:14:10 <balloons> I hit that so many times.. nothing showed..

    14:14:11 <balloons> zzzzzzz

    14:14:16 <balloons> anyways, who's all here?

    14:15:50 <balloons> heh, let's go look at the topics we have

    14:15:52 <phillw> hmm, looks like a short meeting!

    14:16:04 <balloons> yes, which is just as well

    14:16:47 <balloons> [Topic] Ubuntu Updates

    14:16:53 <balloons> hey! it worked

    14:17:44 <balloons> so updates for ubuntu.. well, the desktop stuff is starting to land. We've had the kernel call for testing going on, and added the twist of trying to ensure we have a range of hardware being tested

    14:18:52 <balloons> unity is on the radar to start going through some testing iterations I hope, and i suspect we'll also start to see more special testing runs as features start to land

    14:19:11 <balloons> alpha 3 should be a few things, and the period between it and beta will be busy!

    14:22:51 <balloons> Also, I'm started looking at the ARM testcases and will be asking around for folks interested in ARM soon

    14:23:00 <balloons> [TOPIC] Ubuntu Flavor Updates

    14:23:14 <balloons> phillw, since your here.. take the lead

    14:23:51 <phillw> in terms of things landing, we're similar to ubuntu. The applications we're going to ship are now getting added

    14:23:59 <phillw> bug 1018533 has been resolved

    14:24:01 <ubottu> Launchpad bug 1018533 in ubiquity (Ubuntu Quantal) "Cannot manually change partitions" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1018533

    14:24:34 <phillw> however bug 1007394 really needs a bit of love, as it completely blocks the ppc alternate.

    14:24:35 <ubottu> Launchpad bug 1007394 in mdadm (Ubuntu) "Quantal daily fails to complete installation" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1007394

    14:25:39 <phillw> I'm, not sure as to if to raise its importance to critical as it stops the installation deaed?

    14:25:41 <balloons> ohh, inreresting

    14:25:53 <phillw> *dead*

    14:26:00 <balloons> yes, for the ppc image it's dead right/

    14:26:15 <balloons> btw, how's the no firefox ppc build bug coming along?

    14:26:54 <phillw> julien is still working on it, and has included another browser for the time being (the name of which escapes me!).

    14:27:50 <balloons> gotcha

    14:28:22 <phillw> Midori

    14:28:45 <balloons> yes, pretty neat little browser

    14:29:44 <phillw> that's all to report from lubuntu.

    14:31:54 <balloons> alright, let's see if any other flavors are here and wish to speak up?

    14:32:21 <balloons> kubuntu, xubuntu, ubuntu studio, edubuntu, mythbuntu?

    14:33:53 <balloons> If not, we'll move on

    14:34:05 <balloons> [TOPIC] Other topics

    14:34:21 <balloons> Ok, lastly does anyone have anything else they wish to add to the agenda?

    14:36:43 <balloons> ok, so I'll just finish my final pieces

    14:37:07 <balloons> I wanted to highlight again that we're doing daily iso tests this week as part of our 2 week cadence for testing the dailies

    14:37:29 <balloons> phillw, I'll bring up that bug btw.. thanks for bringing it to my attn

    14:38:34 <balloons> If your doing any installs or messing around with the daily cd's this week, please file reports of success of failure against the dailies.

    14:39:29 <balloons> I think that's all folks!
