15:12 <bdmurray> bug 1832309
15:12 <ubottu> bug 1832309 in netplan.io (Ubuntu) "netplan stores wifi-password world-readable" [High,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1832309
15:12 <bdmurray> cyphermox: can you confirm that?
15:13 <cyphermox> yes, that's known
15:13 <gaughen> waveform, I tried to buy a pi4!
15:13 <bdmurray> cyphermox: seems worth carding then right?
15:13 <cyphermox> I mean, it's a textfile you need to write to...
15:13 <cyphermox> yeah, there's a PR for part of that too
15:13 <bdmurray> okay, so carding
15:14 <bdmurray> bug 1834226
15:14 <ubottu> bug 1834226 in update-notifier (Ubuntu) "update-notifier doesn't respect "automatically check for updates: Never"" [High,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1834226
15:16 <bdmurray> while poorly described this seems familiar to me
15:17 <bdmurray> I think its really about unattended-upgrades not respecting a setting from software-properties-gtk. Does that sound familiar balint?
15:17 <sil2100> rbalint: ^
15:18 <rbalint> bdmurray, it is apt that calls u-u
15:18 <rbalint> juliank, ^
15:18 <rbalint> :-)
15:18 <rbalint> (via systemd timers)
15:18 <juliank> that's packagekit I assume
15:18 <rbalint> :-D
15:19 <rbalint> i propose taking the bug :-)
15:19 <juliank> PackageKit has its own timer, and it's not configurable
15:19 <juliank> Simple fix is to remove the never option
15:19 <gaughen> bdmurray, my vote on that netplan card is that we put it on the list to get working on this next iteration
15:19 <gaughen> so on the prioritized lane please
15:19 <rbalint> juliank, i think it is not really the direction of pleasing users :-)
15:20 <juliank> No hang on, I think it's actually gnome-settings-daemon issuing the Refresh call to PackageKit
15:20 <bdmurray> gaughen: ack
15:21 <juliank> But in any case, we can't be sure what the cause is, we need a ps tree
15:21 <sil2100> We don't have to solve it now, but is this something we'd want to get fixed this cycle?
15:22 <rbalint> sil2100, yes, imo
15:22 <juliank> It's certainly not urgent as its been that way all the time, but yes
15:22 <bdmurray> I think finding whatever bug I'm remembering would be good
15:22 <bdmurray> That way we have an idea of the number of people who choose "Never"
15:23 <sil2100> Let's maybe card it then?
15:23 <bdmurray> How about we leave it on the list until the detective work is done.
15:24 <rbalint> bdmurray, i think the process is taking it then doing the work
15:24 <bdmurray> We are also make a lot of assumptions about what the person is talking about, so asking some follow up questions seems good to me too.
15:24 <sil2100> Ok
15:25 <bdmurray> bug 1829805 is also high
15:25 <ubottu> bug 1829805 in initramfs-tools (Ubuntu) "Lubuntu Eoan Daily Image fails to boot after install on KVM" [High,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1829805
15:26 <bdmurray> xnox has asked for some more information though so leaving it seems fine
15:26 <sil2100> Yeah, let's wait for the reporter to provide more info
15:26 <bdmurray> Lets move on to the Undecided ones next
15:26 <bdmurray> bug 1796260
15:26 <ubottu> bug 1796260 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "UEFI install onto an MBR disk, with a pre-existing os/partition, results in a non-bootable ESP on a logical partition" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1796260
15:27 <gaughen> isn't that one mwhudson is working on
15:27 <sil2100> This sounds familiar
15:28 <bdmurray> It looks like there is a card for this
15:28 <cyphermox> sil2100: because we've discussed this previously
15:32 <bdmurray> Let's set the importance of it. What should we do about the rls-ee-incoming tag?
15:33 <bdmurray> bug 1833758
15:33 <ubottu> bug 1833758 in lvm2 (Ubuntu) "lvm2: vgcfgbackup in postinst takes several minutes" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1833758
15:34 <bdmurray> Does this only happen w/ schroot?
15:35 <sil2100> sbeattie: ^
15:37 <bdmurray> sil2100 and I'll have a look at it to see what situations are affected.
15:37 <sil2100> I'll try investigating this, seeing what impact it has
15:38 <bdmurray> Oh, whoops we missed bug 1832882
15:38 <ubottu> bug 1832882 in curl (Ubuntu Disco) "libcurl-gnutls segfaults spotify client" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1832882
15:39 <bdmurray> So while the snap works it might be nice to fix this anyway
15:39 <bdmurray> It seems like a pretty straightforward SRU
15:39 <rbalint> bdmurray, isn't it a 3rd party package?
15:40 <juliank> I don't see a patch
15:41 <bdmurray> rbalint: Yes
15:41 <rbalint> juliank, there is one in the github issue
15:42 <rbalint> bdmurray, sry maybe it is valid still for curl
15:42 <juliank> rbalint: might not be the same issue
15:43 <rbalint> it is worth trying i think
15:44 <bdmurray> seb pointed to this https://packages.qa.debian.org/c/curl/news/20190512T204836Z.html
15:44 <bdmurray> Does the debian bug have a test case?
15:47 <bdmurray> Well let's just take it.
15:47 <sil2100> +1
15:48 <rbalint> +1
15:48 <juliank> meow!
15:48 <bdmurray> That is all the High and Undecided bug reports
15:48 <gaughen> juliank, is that the new hipper +1?
15:49 <juliank> either that or -1
15:49 <sil2100> Should we move on?
15:49 <sil2100> #topic Team proposed-migration report
15:49 <gaughen> sil2100, no too busy thinking about cats
15:49 <sil2100> hah!
15:49 <sil2100> #link http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/proposed-migration/update_excuses_by_team.html#foundations-bugs
15:50 <doko> so, adam tells me that glibc and binutils issues are likely caused by a kernel regression
15:51 <doko> I'll address the sphinx issue with the python 3.7.4 today or tomorrow
15:52 <sil2100> doko: does the kernel team know about the regressions?
15:52 <gaughen> doko, wonder if the fix for the regression is coming out this week
15:52 <doko> accordng to adam, yes
15:52 <gaughen> doko, okay then these should be gone by our next mtg
15:52 <rbalint> partman-multipath is waiting for comments from xnox
15:53 <doko> that's it. I'd like to continue with https://people.canonical.com/~doko/ftbfs-report/test-rebuild-20190614-eoan.html
15:53 <doko> who is owning whoopsie?
15:56 <bdmurray> there is card for the ftbfs bugs
15:56 <doko> last issues: https://people.canonical.com/~doko/ftbfs-report/test-rebuild-20190614-gcc9-eoan.html
15:57 <doko> should I file issues for those as well?
15:57 <bdmurray> cards were created for all the ftbfs bugs for foundations packages
15:59 <doko> bdmurray: not for the gcc9 issues yet. would you like to care about these?
16:00 <bdmurray> I mean that all the ftbfs bugs that were previously filed and tagged rls-ee-incoming were targetted to Eoan and cards were created for them.
16:00 <rbalint> doko, i think it is a bit early since Debian's fixes will start flowing in two weeks
16:04 <doko> rbalint: yes, but that doesn't mean that GCC 9 is the default in Debian at this time
16:06 <sil2100> Ok, guess let me change the topic
16:06 <sil2100> #topic AOB
16:07 <sil2100> Anything else besides that?
16:07 <bdmurray> Next Thursday is a US holiday
16:07 <sil2100> Ok, thanks guys! Next chair will be...
16:07 <sil2100> waveform: can you chair next time?
