2 [18:01] * stgraber waves
3 [18:01] <sbeattie> [Hey
4 [18:02] <pedro_> bdmurray: around?
5 [18:03] <bdmurray> pedro_: yep
6 [18:03] <pedro_> great, let's get started then
7 [18:03] <pedro_> Welcome to the QA Team Meeting
8 [18:03] <pedro_> heno is not around today, he's at London IIRC
9 [18:04] <pedro_> Today's agenda : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/Meetings
10 [18:04] * mgunes missed the last meeting due to the time shift
11 [18:04] <pedro_> we still don't have bot, right?
12 [18:05] <stgraber> mgunes: that and we were in #ubuntu-testing as #ubuntu-meeting was used for another meeting
13 [18:05] <stgraber> pedro_: try #startmeeting
14 [18:05] <pedro_> #startmeeting
15 [18:05] <MootBot> Meeting started at 12:07. The chair is pedro_.
16 [18:05] <MootBot> Commands Available: [TOPIC], [IDEA], [ACTION], [AGREED], [LINK], [VOTE]
17 [18:05] <pedro_> oh it's working , nice
18 [18:05] <stgraber> so we have it :)
19 [18:05] <mgunes> stgraber, I noticed the shift minutes to the previous start time, so I really was out of luck ;)
20 [18:05] <mgunes> sorry about that
21 [18:05] <pedro_> [TOPIC] Hardy 8.04.1 SRU Verifications
22 [18:05] <MootBot> New Topic: Hardy 8.04.1 SRU Verifications
23 [18:06] <pedro_> I've been looking to the SRU list http://people.ubuntu.com/~ubuntu-archive/pending-sru.html
24 [18:06] <pedro_> and we have still a lot of verifications to do
25 [18:06] <pedro_> some of them are pretty old (more than 30 days)
26 [18:07] <pedro_> like the grub-installer ; bug 217348
27 [18:07] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 217348 in wubi "Incorrect disk order detection generates wrong menu.lst" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/217348
28 [18:07] <bdmurray> Are there 8.04.1 dailies now?
29 [18:08] <mgunes> bdmurray, yes
30 [18:08] <stgraber> http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/hardy/
31 [18:08] <MootBot> LINK received: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/hardy/
32 [18:08] <slangasek> currently only oversized ones, and alternate-only at the moment
33 [18:10] <nxvl> mgunes: hiQ!
34 [18:12] <pedro_> Ok so, the process need to be speed up a bit in order to have those fixes included in 8.04.1
35 [18:12] <sbeattie> some of the ones sitting with long times are a little more difficult to test I think
36 [18:12] <ogasawara> does there currently exist a document instructing reporters how then can enable -proposed and test possible fixes?
37 [18:13] <mgunes> nxvl, hello
38 [18:13] <stgraber> we have that on the wiki IIRC, give me a second
39 [18:13] <mgunes> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed
40 [18:13] <stgraber> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed ?
41 [18:13] <pedro_> yeah i was blogged
42 [18:13] <ogasawara> perfect
43 [18:13] <pedro_> s/i/it
44 [18:13] <stgraber> argh, mgunes was faster :)
45 [18:14] <sbeattie> pedro_: I've been hacking on laserjock's script that he posted to give an alternate view of outstanding sru's
46 [18:14] <sbeattie> sample output here: http://www.nxnw.org/~steve/tmp/sru_todo2.html
47 [18:14] <pedro_> [LINK] http://www.nxnw.org/~steve/tmp/sru_todo2.html
48 [18:14] <MootBot> LINK received: http://www.nxnw.org/~steve/tmp/sru_todo2.html
49 [18:15] <sbeattie> I wanted to be able to see the bug descriptions all in one place, and go through and try to highlight which ones are difficult to test and get attention paid to them
50 [18:15] <bdmurray> sbeattie: ooh, that rocks!
51 [18:15] <pedro_> that's pretty cool ;-)
52 [18:16] <ogasawara> very cool
53 [18:16] <mgunes> sbeattie, any objections to publicizing this page (for testers on the forums, etc.)?
54 [18:16] <sbeattie> that list is supposed to be what's in main, but there's some universe packages mingling there
55 [18:17] <pedro_> sbeattie: [wishlist] could you add a sort method? like one sorting for age (oldest to newest one) :-)
56 [18:17] <sbeattie> mgunes: hold off a bit, I'd like to get in a location other than my home server.
57 [18:17] <mgunes> sbeattie, alright
58 [18:17] <sbeattie> pedro_: ooh, good idea.
59 [18:18] <pedro_> you can always move it to people.ubuntu.com ;-)
60 [18:19] <sbeattie> Jordan/laserjock has a location on ubuntuwire that I had hoped he would integrate it into
61 [18:19] <pedro_> rock on
62 [18:19] <pedro_> ok let's assign to us some of the SRU's
63 [18:19] <pedro_> any takers for bug 221501 ?
64 [18:19] <sbeattie> pedro_: I also want to have it highlight bugs that it can't find testcases for.
65 [18:19] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 221501 in kickseed "grub-installer failing on Hardy kickseed when "bootloader --md5pass" is set" [Medium,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/221501
66 [18:21] <sbeattie> pedro_: I'll take it
67 [18:21] <pedro_> sbeattie: great, thanks you!
68 [18:21] <pedro_> i can take bug 217348
69 [18:21] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 217348 in wubi "Incorrect disk order detection generates wrong menu.lst" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/217348
70 [18:22] <mgunes> I've neglected to start a forum thread (in the development section) in which to post instructions and guide people towards doing some verification (I'm in the process of moving house so really been busy with that)
71 [18:22] <pedro_> anybody for bug 218549 ?
72 [18:22] <mgunes> now that I'm this late, I'll perhaps highlight the oldest pending SRUs
73 [18:22] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 218549 in rescue "Choosing "Reboot" in rescue menu jumps to main menu" [Medium,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/218549
74 [18:22] <sbeattie> mgunes: oh good, I meant to do that as well, but am happy if you can do that.
75 [18:23] <mgunes> sbeattie, I'll do it within the next few hours
76 [18:23] <pedro_> mgunes: indeed you may also want to highlight some of the universe ones, there's a couple older than 40 days there :-(
77 [18:23] <pedro_> that'd be neat
78 [18:23] <mgunes> pedro_, will do
79 [18:23] <sbeattie> mgunes: another idea heno had was to have a "Help ubuntu by playing games" post/blog to test for regressions in the gnome-games update in -proposed
80 [18:24] <pedro_> mgunes: rock on , thanks
81 [18:24] <sbeattie> as a way to get people interested in testing pending packages.
82 [18:25] <mgunes> sbeattie, I wasn't aware of that one; perhaps worth doing a separate post
83 [18:25] <sbeattie> mgunes: yeah, as a seperate item.
84 [18:25] * mgunes takes note
85 [18:28] <sbeattie> pedro_: I can take bug 218549 asuming it's reproducable on the alternative isos.
86 [18:28] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 218549 in rescue "Choosing "Reboot" in rescue menu jumps to main menu" [Medium,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/218549
87 [18:28] <bdmurray> I think that is alternate only actually
88 [18:29] <bdmurray> Live CDs don't have the rescue menu
89 [18:30] <sbeattie> okay. then I'll it.
90 [18:30] <pedro_> sbeattie: ok thanks again
91 [18:30] <pedro_> well everybody feel free to take any bugs also from that list and verified them
92 [18:30] <pedro_> universe need help also so if you have a couple of free minutes a good idea is to help them also
93 [18:31] <pedro_> [TOPIC] Intrepid QA Schedule
94 [18:31] <MootBot> New Topic: Intrepid QA Schedule
95 [18:31] <pedro_> bdmurray: ^
96 [18:32] <bdmurray> So I've fully updated https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/IntrepidSchedule and wanted to make sure it looks sane to everyone before e-mailing it out
97 [18:32] <bdmurray> I also put an explanation as to waht focus areas mean at the bottom of the page
98 [18:34] <bdmurray> Barring any objections I'll send an e-mail about it this week
99 [18:35] <pedro_> looks good to me
100 [18:35] <pedro_> did you introduced another change besides the 8.04.1 ISO Testing task?
101 [18:35] <davmor2_laptop> +1
102 [18:36] <bdmurray> The string-fix bit is new and test case review which we talked about
103 [18:36] <mgunes> +1
104 [18:36] <bdmurray> ogasawara: is the kernel ready for Alpha 1?
105 [18:37] <davmor2_laptop> evolution isn't
106 [18:38] <sbeattie> bdmurray: what's testcase review?
107 [18:38] <ogasawara> bdmurray: I think the Intrepid kernel is still having some build issues
108 [18:38] <bdmurray> sbeattie: finalization of ISO test cases
109 === asac_ is now known as asac
110 [18:38] <bdmurray> hmm, I'll add that to the bottom
111 [18:39] <sbeattie> thanks
112 [18:39] <bdmurray> thank you for pointing that out
113 [18:40] <bdmurray> ogasawara: I'll leave the solicit kernel testing for this week on there anywya
114 [18:41] <bdmurray> Okay, well that's all I had.
115 [18:42] <pedro_> ok, any other business ?
116 [18:43] <stgraber> nope
117 [18:43] <mgunes> I have a late spec that I'm not sure I can get approval for, now that I've missed the spec deadline.. but probably need heno around to discuss that
118 [18:43] <mgunes> I'll post to the list.
119 [18:43] <pedro_> mgunes: yep that's best
120 [18:44] <pedro_> ok
121 [18:44] <stgraber> mgunes: shouldn't be a problem, I still have to spec two of the QA website things. Just ping heno
122 [18:44] <pedro_> #endmeeting
