Because otherwise, it is impossible to take lvm snapshots of the root filesystem (they fill up with swapfile changes very quickly and drop off as full) 16:18 xnox: Ahh, kay. Yeah, the snapshotting thing is icky. 16:18 auto-luks is: cryptsetup - lvm - ext4 16:18 xnox: I retract my comment. :) 16:18 infinity, indeed. I was hoping it would do a sensible thing - 'this is a swapfile, i shall not snapshot these bits' 16:18 barry, doko: but the rebuilds for trusty should be against 2.7.12, the version we already support in xenial + yakkety 16:18 but no, no, no. 16:19 slangasek: did somebody say something else? 16:19 slangasek: right, that's what we agreed on in seville 16:19 doko: no, but barry's question made me wonder if there was ambiguity so I'm restating just in case :) 16:20 yep, sorry to sow confusion 16:20 alrighty, any other questions on status? 16:21 doko: wrt python 2.7.12 and trusty, is that still something you think you'll kick off the tests of before EOY? 16:22 yes, trying 16:22 ok 16:22 thx 16:23 [TOPIC] AOB 16:23 anything else to discuss? 16:23 there was a question of meetings for next week 16:23 I won't be around 16:23 I have a question 16:23 me neither 16:23 are there people who both a) are around next Thursday and b) want a meeting? 16:23 no 16:23 no 16:24 Now that Martin's gone can / should we turn on apport crash reporting to Launchpad earlier than Alpha 1 or whatever he did? 16:24 (aren't you all supposed to give the logician joke answer to that question and say "I don't know"?) 16:24 what? 16:25 slangasek: I think we know each other well enough to know the answer is "no". 16:25 doko: three logicians walk into a bar and the bartender asks, "does everybody want a beer?" the first logician answers "I don't know" the second logician answers "I don't know" the third logician answers "yes" 16:25 slangasek: Even if many answer yes to (a), I suspect none would answer yes to (b). :P 16:26 bdmurray: I don't recall a reason why we were leaving it turned off until partway into the cycle. I guess that's a policy that predates proposed-migration? 16:27 slangasek: Yes, its just always been that way and I think its worth changing. 16:28 bdmurray: ok. IMHO it's better to turn it on earlier 16:28 Yeah, it was historically to avoid a flood of bugs from broken autosyncs. 16:29 But p-m should shield us from most of that these days. 16:29 ... 16:29 Cool, I'll turn it on shortly then. 16:30 xnox: If you disagree with that statement, it's only because you were too young to read or type back when we did it the old way. ;) 16:30 lol 16:30 is pending-sru page still useful? i see many people starring at proposed-migration for stable releases and are wondering as to why things are not migrating. Should stable proposed-migration learn about "verification-needed" tags? 7 day phasing? 16:30 infinity, excuse me, i've been using ubuntu since Festy Fawn! =) 16:30 infinity, excuse me, i've been using ubuntu since Feisty Fawn! =) 16:31 xnox: Yes we use pending-sru. 16:32 And no, we don't (yet) let p-m actually drive migration. It's a goal, and a good one, but not a realised one. 16:32 yes, the pending-sru page is the driver, the update_excuses page doesn't drive promotions 16:32 sure, but we tought a bunch of non #ubuntu-release users to look at proposed-migration outputs =) and i'm now seeing people who know proposed-migration, and are completely unaware of all the other old-school reports pages. 16:32 that seems like a failure of the education system, not the SRU process 16:32 (i do know how things are done; but external perception of how things are done is shifting) 16:33 we're not going to jump to prioritize a bunch of engineering work around the proposed-migration pages just because someone told someone to look at the wrong page 16:33 =) 16:33 ok 16:35 I dunno. I think we should delete our bug tracker because some users prefer to use forums. 16:35 +1 16:35 xnox: Will you drive the migration of our bug reporting to ubuntuforums.org? 16:35 infinity, yes please! let's move to BTS 16:35 rm -rf launchpad 16:35 barry: bzr first 16:35 infinity, or better Jira - the best tracker ever. 16:35 *shudder* 16:35 slangasek: still waiting for feedback on that draft :) 16:36 I'll begin adding CVS support to bileto today. 16:36 barry: I know 16:36 * xnox is not sure what it tracks, but I heard it's good at tracking tracks 16:38 xnox: is that pronounced /ji'ra/ or /dʒi'ra/ or /ʒi'ra/ or /ʎi'ɺa/ ? 16:39 ok, looks like we're done 16:39 #endmeeting
