16:08 -l 16:09 what are the usual reasons? 16:09 flaky tests?/ 16:09 testsuite fail 16:09 yes 16:09 package dependencies not built 16:09 etc. 16:09 I think for flaky tests a bug can be filed 16:09 we shouldn't get used to failing tests 16:10 there's also the case where "new binary packages" exist that didn't exist before and they usually are just cashiered in. 16:10 cpaelzer: you mean, we have moved the trello card into done already, that kind of tracking? 16:10 no 16:10 let me explain 16:10 I had a package which is a auto-sync from Debian 16:10 and it passed into artful, so it has completed its proposed migration 16:11 I was wondering if somebody "shoved" it through as since then all related tests were failing 16:11 don't non-merge autosyncs skip proposed migration? 16:12 I have seen other auto-syncs in migration 16:12 if some skip there must be a splitter somewhere which decides 16:12 e.g. mininet 2.2.2-1 was in artful, but until then http://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/mininet/artful/amd64 had NO listing of any 2.2.2-1 test 16:12 but I don't want to pick on this case 16:12 I have found and fixed it 16:13 I wonder if I have package X in release Y - is there any way/place I can check if anything was --force ? 16:13 audit log 16:13 like as launchpad has a publication history if there is a "package exception history" anywhere? 16:13 or something like that 16:13 yeah 16:13 I guess only an AA can answer 16:13 Might be worth a reach out to ubuntu-devel 16:14 maybe with better words, but yes 16:14 ok I'll take an action to ask 16:14 I wanted to know it, so I volunteer to ask about it 16:14 #action cpaelzer reach out to ubuntu-devel@/AA and find out if an audit log of package exceptions exists anywhere 16:14 * meetingology cpaelzer reach out to ubuntu-devel@/AA and find out if an audit log of package exceptions exists anywhere 16:15 Any other topics to bring up about artful development? 16:15 #topic Server & Cloud Bugs & SRU/Pending Uploads (slashd) 16:15 Here's the list of LP bugs that SEG is currently working on : http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/24908778/ 16:15 - By any chance, if there is a SRU verification member amongst us who has some cycle, we would appreciate to have someone approving the upload listed under [SRU verification needed] ^. Otherwise, it's fine I'll ask the SRU vanguard. 16:15 - Also note that we are currently working on a MIR process to request to uplift 'pcp' pkg from Ubuntu universe to Ubuntu main. The paper work is not ready yet, but we are working on it. I'll probably have more to say about it next week. 16:16 #info SRU pending for : percona-xtradb-cluster-5.5, nfs-utils, autofs5, percona-xtradb-cluster-5.6 percona-xtradb-cluster-5.5, multipath-tools, isc-dhcp 16:16 #info SRU pending for : percona-xtradb-cluster-5.5, nfs-utils, autofs5, percona-xtradb-cluster-5.6 percona-xtradb-cluster-5.5, multipath-tools, isc-dhcp 16:17 adding - #info further SRU pending: qemu, ntp 16:17 rbasak: any suggestion on the SRU for slashd? 16:17 #info further SRU pending: qemu, ntp 16:17 It's an endless queue unfortunately. It's my SRU day tomorrow - I'll take a look if I get that far. 16:18 rbasak, thanks 16:18 slashd: any help needed on the bug list? 16:18 slashd: I wonder - are you usually relying on SRU verification team? 16:18 dpb1, everything is under control 16:19 usually we try to get the reporters to help, who would that be in your case 16:19 any on site partner maybe? 16:19 cpaelzer, we are always relying on them for SRU 16:19 or are they totally out of the loop in your case? 16:19 ah ok, then it is the same 16:19 so "just" the normal SRU duty 16:19 which rbasak and his peers are fighting the queue 16:19 thanks slashd 16:20 thanks slashd for the summary, interesting bugs this week. :) 16:20 #topic Weekly Updates & Questions for the QA Team (powersj) 16:20 #link https://jenkins.ubuntu.com/server/ 16:20 Last week got the cloud-init tests of COPR complete and running daily. Overhauled the daily tests of cloud-init and as of last night, got the CI pipeline in place and operational. Continue to run into some issues with pylxd and lxd 2.14, so running a local patched version of pylxd until pypi can be updated. And a blog post on our sprint. 16:20 This week get the CI pipeline announced, get the ISO tests green, and back to proposed testing. 16:20 questions? 16:21 have you checked with anyone on the pylxd issue? 16:21 or is there a bug filed? 16:21 yes it is a matter of getting a new version uploaded to pypi 16:21 and yes 16:21 linky linky? 16:22 https://github.com/lxc/pylxd/issues/232 16:22 dpb1, Is it possible to add on the #topic server ddstreet as a backup in case I'm absent ? 16:22 #link https://github.com/lxc/pylxd/issues/232 16:22 #action dpb look into why this is stalled https://github.com/lxc/pylxd/issues/232 16:22 * meetingology dpb look into why this is stalled https://github.com/lxc/pylxd/issues/232 16:23 slashd: I suggest you just go ahead and edit 16:23 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam/Meeting 16:23 slashd: I'll do it 16:23 rbasak, dpb1 I did but it seems ddstreet disapeared from the list. 16:23 #action dpb add on the #topic server ddstreet as a backup in case slashd is absent ? 16:23 * meetingology dpb add on the #topic server ddstreet as a backup in case slashd is absent ? 16:23 dpb1, thanks 16:23 slashd: thx for bringing it up 16:24 #topic Weekly Updates & Questions for the Kernel Team (smb, sforshee) 16:24 * rbasak suspects someone is using something other than the agenda to paste in meetingology commands :-) 16:24 An embargoed CVE uncloaked on your port side. Many new kernels launched. Otherwise the 4.11 kernel for artful still waits in proposed for better times (not sure what keeps it as I was distracted by previous news item). Are there questions? 16:25 smb: since you love the questions ahead of time, 4.14 next LTS is that in time for 18.04 ? 16:25 rbasak: (aside) it's why I took the action, I want to clean up the sources of truth 16:26 cpaelzer, maybe too soon even. 16:26 cpaelzer, estimated release of 4.14 is Nov-2017 16:26 ~November/December 16:26 yeah 16:26 too bad 16:26 try to stall the current 70 day cacle :-) 16:27 As the kernel turns.... 16:27 Those plans ever worked sooo well 16:27 OK. 16:27 thx smb 16:27 #topic Upcoming Call For Papers 16:27 #link https://lwn.net/Calendar/Monthly/cfp/ 16:28 I did submit for debconf, but haven't heard back 16:28 any conferences or deadlines people are aiming for?
