15:18 <xnox> #link http://reqorts.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/rls-mgr/rls-ee-incoming-bug-tasks.html#foundations-bugs
15:18 <bdmurray> So juliank, cyphermox and I have been reviewing other rls tagged bugs and tagged some with ee for discussion
15:18 <bdmurray> bug 807259
15:19 <ubottu> bug 807259 in update-manager (Ubuntu) "MetaRelease.download() Issue after Captive Portal" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/807259
15:20 <bdmurray> This has been around for quite a while and seems worth fixing.
15:21 <cyphermox> I'm around; sorry. I was suprised by my parents visiting at an inopportune time
15:21 <juliank> bdmurray: Should be fixed since the move to https?
15:21 <bdmurray> I hope they brought food
15:22 <bdmurray> juliank: so you think it is worth testing again?
15:22 <xnox> juliank:  should it like query gnome if there is or isn't network connectivity from the checker?
15:22 <juliank> bdmurray: yeah
15:23 <juliank> xnox: hmm, meh, it would just show you nothing if the cert is wrtong
15:23 <xnox> right
15:23 <bdmurray> anyway the point is should we card it?
15:24 <vorlon> so, this looks manageable this cycle, +1 for putting it on the list
15:24 <bdmurray> okay, targetting to EE
15:24 <bdmurray> bug 1218702 - cyphermox can you speak this one?
15:24 <ubottu> bug 1218702 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "ubiquity resizes partition even when not asked to." [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1218702
15:25 <cyphermox> an old ubiquity bug
15:25 <cyphermox> basically, moving from MiB to MB or the other way around confuses partman
15:25 <cyphermox> possibly also cylinder alignment?
15:25 <cyphermox> I think it's worth at least checking carefully that those ^ are handled correctly
15:26 <vorlon> what is the impact of this bug?  they're formatting the partition, so what does it matter if it's also resized in the process
15:26 <cyphermox> it's not quite the same size as people expect it to be
15:26 <vorlon> unless I'm missing something I would decline this one
15:26 <cyphermox> (but also, it might resize partitions they aren't changing, IIUC)
15:27 <vorlon> ok, but "I lost 8M"
15:27 <vorlon> that's not a real issue on modern disks
15:27 <xnox> it's like 3 floppies!
15:27 <vorlon> I lose that much disk in my couch cushions when I sit down
15:27 <cyphermox> who cares about 8MiB lost in the grand scheme of things; you probably wouln't notice.
15:27 <cyphermox> but if something decides to resize an existing partition that you weren't otherwise touching, that's potentially a much, much slower install
15:28 <vorlon> yes, but that's not reported in the ug
15:28 <vorlon> bug
15:28 <cyphermox> how much do we need to focus on this if we're to have a new installer for desktop?
15:28 <vorlon> zero
15:28 <vorlon> decline
15:28 <cyphermox> ack.
15:28 <cyphermox> it's certainly not a new bug in any case
15:28 <bdmurray> bug 1503441
15:28 <ubottu> bug 1503441 in partman-auto (Ubuntu) "4GB root isn't enough to install Ubuntu" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1503441
15:29 <cyphermox> similar thing, in a way. we should check that the minimal space calculations are still correct in ubiquity, and the partman-auto recipes are good.
15:30 <cyphermox> xnox: I think swap space shouldn't be the issue anymore?
15:30 <vorlon> the bug as described definitely doesn't exist today, it's been fixed in the past 4 years
15:30 <cyphermox> ok
15:30 <vorlon> so I would close it fixed
15:30 <xnox> cyphermox:  vorlon: marked it as fixed.
15:30 <cyphermox> let's kill that then
15:31 <cyphermox> ta
15:32 <vorlon> LP: #1680245, I don't think this needs to be here
15:32 <ubottu> Launchpad bug 1680245 in subiquity (Ubuntu) "subiquity does not take in account existing partition" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1680245
15:32 <vorlon> that work is tracked elsewise
15:32 <bdmurray> We wanted to follow up with mwh about the status of it
15:32 <vorlon> the deb in the Ubuntu archive is not how subiquity is delivered, so I don't think the release tracking bugs dtrt
15:33 <bdmurray> ah, okay that's reasonable
15:33 <cyphermox> there's still the project bug anyway, we can just drop the tag
15:33 <cyphermox> (done)
15:34 <vorlon> we didn't discuss LP: #1494851 ?
15:34 <ubottu> Launchpad bug 1494851 in cryptsetup (Ubuntu) "initramfs cryptroot hook script doesn't install cryptsetup if keyfile but no keyscript" [High,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1494851
15:34 <cyphermox> don't we have a card about this?
15:34 <cyphermox> assigned to beta squad I think
15:34 <xnox> hmmmm
15:34 <bdmurray> cyphermox: its not tagged with the card one
15:34 <xnox> so, it's now split into separate packages......
15:35 <cyphermox> or maybe not
15:35 <vorlon> according to the comment from juliank the code doesn't exist post-cosmic, so should perhaps be closed
15:35 <bdmurray> but what about Bionic?
15:35 <xnox> yeah that
15:35 <juliank> bionic and xenial should prob be fixed
15:35 <xnox> cause i had the autodetection in cosmic-
15:35 <xnox> to either include cryptsetup or not
15:35 <xnox> and now, it's just a separate package.
15:36 <xnox> (which i don't know if we are seeding right)
15:36 <vorlon> bdmurray: bionic> orthogonal to the rls-ee-incoming list? :)
15:36 <xnox> but i don't care about seeds anymore
15:36 <cyphermox> vorlon: but bionic-tracking though
15:36 <cyphermox> seb's request was that we see SRUs in the -tracking lists
15:36 <cyphermox> as I understood it anyway
15:37 <bdmurray> sure but we are looking at the bug now and it was rediscovered when looking at rls-x-incoming
15:39 <xnox> i'll try to look into it
15:39 <xnox> a few people use that bit of cryptsetup code, from prior work
15:40 <xnox> bdmurray:  are we done?
15:41 <xnox> shall we move onto proposed-migration report?
15:41 <bdmurray> xnox: lets look at bug 1829401 since its undecided
15:41 <cyphermox> bdmurray: yeah, what I'm saying is we're reviewing -incomings we couldn't just done on our own; and checking if we pull them in to $release-tracking
15:41 <ubottu> bug 1829401 in packagekit (Ubuntu) "/usr/bin/software-properties-gtk:TypeError:on_pktask_finish:on_pktask_finish:new_init:__init__:new_init:__init__:new_init" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1829401
15:41 <juliank> I decided things
15:42 <juliank> but not early enough for the meeting
15:42 <juliank> :(
15:44 <juliank> Now bug 1829401 has a new title
15:44 <ubottu> bug 1829401 in packagekit (Ubuntu Eoan) "gi.repository.GLib.GError: pk-client-error-quark: could not do untrusted question as no klass support" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1829401
15:45 <xnox> bdmurray:  next?
15:46 <bdmurray> xnox: I think that's good for today.
15:49 <vorlon> proposed-migration, then?
15:49 <xnox> #topic Team proposed-migration report
15:49 <xnox> #link http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/proposed-migration/update_excuses_by_team.html#foundations-bugs
15:49 <xnox> so next steps for systemd
15:50 <gaughen> xnox, do you need any help?
15:50 <xnox> is revert balint's patch; merge autopkgtest improvement patches
15:50 <vorlon> did something happen to make systemd worse on arm64?
15:50 <xnox> possibly merge v242
15:50 <vorlon> what's "balint's patch" in this context?
15:50 <xnox> vorlon:  i don't know things about arm64 being worse. i thought arm64 got worse across the board in adt, ratehr than just systemd?
15:50 <xnox> vorlon:  balint's patch is the VT1 keyboard echo bugfix
15:50 <vorlon> xnox: arm64 was failing to boot, and we handled that by stopping the runners in bos02
15:50 <xnox> which has regressions
15:51 <vorlon> since bos02 was unaffected
15:51 <vorlon> ah that patch ok
15:51 <vorlon> sorry, bos01 was unaffected
15:51 <xnox> ah i see
15:51 <vorlon> so any current test failures are unrelated
15:52 <rbalint> vorlon, yes, they are unrelated
15:52 <rbalint> vorlon, the vt1 fix caused regressions in desktop edge cases
15:52 * vorlon nods
15:52 <vorlon> the "I stopped gdm for some reason"
15:52 <vorlon> case
15:52 * juliank uploaded broken packagekit, could be removed from proposed
15:55 <vorlon> juliank: you want us to delete 1.1.12-5ubuntu1 from -proposed?  or are you going to do a follow-up upload?
15:55 <juliank> I'll eventually do one, but it might confuse people in the meantime
15:55 <vorlon> (just removing it has the downside that when someone tries to upload again, they reuse the version number that's already burnt)
15:56 <vorlon> juliank: so I would leave it there for right now
15:56 <juliank> ok
15:56 <vorlon> and if we have this conversation again in a week, I'll reconsider :)
15:57 <vorlon> I guess I'll retry the cloud-utils/amd64 autopkgtest again
15:59 <vorlon> which is possibly racy, or a regression wrt loop devices
16:00 <vorlon> and network-manager/ppc64el is going nowhere fast
16:01 <vorlon> cyphermox: test_no_ap seems to have become less reliable there, any thoughts?
16:01 <xnox> #topic AOB ?
16:01 <cyphermox> I was looking at that
16:01 <xnox> no?
16:01 <vorlon> cyphermox: ok thanks
16:01 <cyphermox> I'd need to look at the code, it's been a while
16:01 <xnox> aob going once
16:01 <xnox> aob going twice
16:01 <vorlon> cyphermox: should we give you a card for that work?
16:01 <xnox> aob going thrice
16:01 <cyphermox> vorlon: please.
