Worked on a few others (ocaml, imagemagick, icu), cleaned up build failures, etc. 16:06:02 Finished drafting my specs. 16:06:05 Looked into the situation with .la files. I think it would be worth making a bit more of an effort to kill off the ones in Ubuntu which are harmful, but haven't published a report yet. 16:06:09 Experimented with doing a multiarch i386->amd64 crossgrade. I've uploaded several of the necessary patches and the rest are awaiting upload by others; after that I'll have another go ... 16:06:13 Fixed debootstrap confusion when it tries to install a package with two versions in the Packages file. 16:06:16 Fixed a couple of QA-reported bugs in daily builds: bug 893014, bug 893060, bug 892903. 16:06:19 Discussed server installer plans with Daviey. 16:06:19 Launchpad bug 893014 in user-setup (Ubuntu Precise) "'user-setup-udeb' failed with error code 1 on alternate when 'Encrypt your home directory' is selected" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/893014 16:06:21 Launchpad bug 893060 in casper (Ubuntu Precise) "on live session ubiquity launcher asks for password" [Undecided,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/893060 16:06:21 Some archive infrastructure work: moved a few jobs from ftpmaster to people, arranged for them to attempt to run earlier in the hour and retry later if need be, and filed an RT to allow the next similar chunk of work. 16:06:22 Launchpad bug 892903 in partman-crypto (Ubuntu) "encrypted LVM install fails with "unsafe swap space detected"" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/892903 16:06:25 (done) 16:06:41 Similar to last week: More blueprint work.

Thought I had done. That must be why Steve skipped it 16:14:12 done 16:14:14 could be 16:15:03 barry: well, when I say in-place, it requires one reboot in the middle; hard to automate completely 16:15:20 (you need a 64-bit kernel in order to execute any 64-bit binaries) 16:15:23 oh, that's so windows 16:15:36 heh 16:15:44 cjwatson: I'm sure you can get rid of that extra reboot by installing qemu-user-static 16:15:54 I thought of that as I was typing it 16:15:59 but that's going to make things a lot slower :) 16:16:54 then you can try a crossgrade from i386 to armel on a x86_64 machine :) 16:17:46 (would need some tweaks to load the binfmt stuff very very early though) 16:18:13 and you'd need to force binfmt-support to stay native-arch - doesn't sound so fun 16:18:22 you could crossgrade a chroot though 16:19:01 that would actually be pretty interesting 16:20:13 anything else, or shall we finish early? 16:20:24 nothing here 16:20:29 i'm good 16:20:34 happy thanksgiving, those who celebrate it :) 16:20:39 thanks! :) 16:20:59 one of the faster meetings ... 16:20:59 that was months ago ;) 16:21:37 #endmeeting Generated by MeetBot 0.1.5 (http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AlanBell/mootbot)
