15:16 Lets say undecided 15:16 bug 1833758 sil2100 was going to test something 15:16 bug 1833758 in lvm2 (Ubuntu) "lvm2: vgcfgbackup in postinst takes several minutes" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1833758 15:16 bug 1836782 loooks new 15:16 bug 1836782 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) ""ubi-partman failed with exit code 10" when stepping back and forward over partitioning screen" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1836782 15:16 ¯\(シ)/¯ 15:17 exit code 10 suggests "question not found from debconf" 15:17 19.04? 15:17 could happen if like a disk falls off the bus 15:18 Sounds like he clicked back when he shouldn't have 15:18 Regardless it needs testing in Eoan 15:18 yup 15:18 I can haz a look 15:18 Okay, thanks 15:18 I'm going to be doing some reinstalls next week 15:18 Importance Medium? 15:18 a disk fell off the back of the bus? 15:19 dabus 15:19 dbus! 15:19 feels like it's maybe some crash because of weirdness in the partitioning 15:19 remind me about partitioning weirdness 15:19 targetting/carding 15:19 I'll give a shot to weird partitioning I can thing of and see if I can reproduce on eoan and 18.04 15:20 okay moving back to High 15:20 bug 1829805 15:20 bug 1829805 in initramfs-tools (Ubuntu) "Lubuntu Eoan Daily Image fails to boot after install on KVM" [High,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1829805 15:20 bdmurray: so 1833758 stays in limbo because sil2100 is going to test "something"? 15:20 vorlon: whether or not it affects the build environment iirc 15:21 even if it did, I don't think that would make it a bug we need to commit to for eoan 15:21 we have plenty of other fish to fry 15:21 ah, alright 15:21 calamares breaking things? 15:22 calamares exposing a regression in initramfs-tools behavior that doesn't affect other install paths 15:22 I'll do some detective work on it 15:22 this was discussed on #ubuntu-release at the time but the bug did not get updated; bdmurray to dig it out 15:23 tdaitx, note that the false alarm is caused by cdimage dirs for core being a giant mess :) (/me expecting that "stable/current" actually has something stable and current :P, i know others from my team ran into similar issues before trying to get the last stable image from cdimage) ... the dir structure needs cleanup 15:23 but I think we should also decline committing to the bug in question given that the impact is now ~0 15:24 ogra: that was a paste of sil2100's status, you're playing telephone 15:24 oops 15:24 i didnt notice, sorry ... only saw the ping 15:24 also it's false that stable/current is not the current stable 15:24 bug 1834226 has a tag for a card and a release task so untagging 15:24 bug 1834226 in software-properties (Ubuntu Eoan) "update-notifier doesn't respect "automatically check for updates: Never"" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1834226 15:25 * vorlon nods 15:25 bug 1798992 is also tagged like there is a card 15:25 bug 1798992 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "Fresh minimal desktop installation has packages pending autoremoval, pending updates" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1798992 15:26 that bug was previously duped, then got unduped the other day per discussion w/ submitter on irc 15:26 and the card is archived too 15:27 yeah I'll unarchive it 15:27 vorlon, well, the cm3+ support is only in http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-core/18/current/ ... not in http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-core/18/stable/current/ ... i tested the latter, developerd a PR with a fix and was then told the fix is in current/ ... the structure is confusing and it isnt easy to catch that "current" is a daily build from edge 15:27 so open a release task on the bug then? 15:27 yes 15:28 ogra: correct, the directory structure is busted and 18/current should be 18/edge/current but isn't because I haven't fixed ubuntu-cdimage to DTRT 15:28 bug 1836064 is already carded etc 15:28 bug 1836064 in glibc (Ubuntu Eoan) "glibc needs an update for linux-5.2 kernel headers (alpha)" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1836064 15:29 and systemd has missing builds 15:29 bug 1835809 15:29 bug 1835809 in systemd (Ubuntu Eoan) "AMD Ryzen 3000 series fails to boot" [High,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1835809 15:30 regardless though that has a task already so dropping the tag 15:30 the glibc one only impacts the build of gcc-9-cross-ports which is not in main 15:31 from a Foundations pov we should decline it 15:31 (because doko could work around this by dropping alpha as a target) 15:31 so I'm adding rls-ee-notfixing 15:32 I worked around it adding the fix 15:32 ok 15:32 but it should be added to glibc proper for the next upload 15:32 sugessting an action involving four source packages is not appropriate 15:33 I'm not suggesting any action except that this is not a priority for Foundations to track at a team level 15:34 you can work out landing the fix w/ the glibc maintainer without it being part of the cognitive load of the team 15:35 bdmurray, tdaitx: I think that's all the ee bugs, right? 15:35 vorlon: Yes, all the high and undecided ones 15:35 #topic Release incoming bugs (bionic) 15:36 #link http://reqorts.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/rls-mgr/rls-bb-incoming-bug-tasks.html#foundations-bugs 15:37 The only one there was still tagged when it had a task. 15:37 So that's done. 15:38 proposed migration then? 15:38 yes please 15:38 #topic Team proposed-migration report 15:39 #link http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/proposed-migration/update_excuses_by_team.html#foundations-bugs 15:39 I've just now pushed retries of various flaky tests blocking readline and bison (network-manager, automake-1.16, cmake) 15:39 geoip-database is unmigratable in Debian unstable and in -proposed because it drops a binary package which has revdeps 15:39 so someone could follow through on that, make sure debian bugs are filed, recommend removal of the packages depending on the NBS package, etc 15:40 I've also just done a batch retry of the failures blocking bzip2, which are likely largely flaky and/or fallout of the dkms breakage which is now fixed 15:41 looks like that takes us down to aptdaemon? 15:41 who wants to take each of geoip-database and aptdaemon 15:42 aptdaemon hilariously is a real test regression introduced by changed lintian output 15:42 15:42 waveform: you want one of these? 15:44 vorlon, not especially while I'm neck deep in pi4 u-boot :) 15:44 heh 15:44 well none of these are particularly urgent, but we are going to need to get to them sooner or later 15:44 should we card those? 15:45 have we been carding stuck -proposed packages? 15:45 they tend to be bitesized 15:45 ok 15:45 like, if you tell me I need to card them I might fix them both myself and then guilt y'all later 15:47 but if no one has capacity to take these on, we should just skip for now and move on to the next topic 15:47 geoip-database 15:47 #topic Chair selection for next meeting 15:48 (this was me claiming one) 15:48 cyphermox: ta :) 15:48 cyphermox: want to claim chair for next meeting as well? 15:48 sure. 15:48 cyphermox: lua-geoip, no bug filed yet in Debian 15:48 oh wait 15:48 sorry, I would prefer not to claim chair for next week 15:48 ok, any volunteers? 15:49 I will be mostly on cellular next week, only getting Interwebs plugged in in Thu PM 15:49 vorlon: wee, lua ang geoip, WCPGW 15:50 cyphermox: (it might be as simple as updating the binary dep, or dropping the package since it has no revdeps) 15:50 I can do it 15:50 yep 15:50 waveform: ta :) 15:50 waveform: ta 15:50 I can right away offer to do the following week 15:50 #topic AOB 15:51 I'm taking a half day tomorrow so I can go wear my Aloha shirt in the appropriate venue. 15:51 bdmurray: into a small municipality adjacent to Beaverton? 15:51 I'm off Monday and Tuesday, and internet-challenged for most of the week. If you see I'm not responding next week on IRC, Telegram *will* work. 15:52 I will be on vacations from Aug 1st to 18th, not even a cellphone working from Aug 4th onwards 15:54 end of meeting? 15:54 #endmeeting
