15:10 <sil2100> bdmurray: sure
15:11 <bdmurray> sil2100: thanks
15:11 <sil2100> bdmurray: which series? d/b?
15:11 <sil2100> Ah, b
15:11 <bdmurray> xnox: ^^
15:11 <sil2100> Will do that during the meeting
15:11 <bdmurray> #topic Release incoming bugs
15:11 <xnox> sil2100:  b for one d/e/f for another
15:12 <xnox> (s390-tools & opencryptoki respectevly)
15:13 <bdmurray> seb128: Do you have any idea on how to separate foundations ubiquity bugs from desktop ones? e.g. bug 1847719.
15:13 <ubottu> bug 1847719 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "zfs "Write to change disks" message prints that an ext4 partition will be created" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1847719
15:13 <bdmurray> bug 1844805 seems worth fixing and is rather easy
15:13 <ubottu> bug 1844805 in ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu) "virtualbox, virtualbox-dkms, virtualbox-qt fail during upgrade from 19.04 to 19.10" [Medium,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1844805
15:14 <seb128> bdmurray, tagging I guess?
15:14 <bdmurray> seb128: zfs-something-something
15:14 <infinity> I mean, it's telling the truth.  It creates an ext4 partition, then deletes it. :P
15:14 <xnox> "foundations-not-it" and "desktop-not-it"
15:14 <sil2100> bdmurray: I could take a look at tackling the u-r-u one
15:14 <infinity> I'm still curious about why it doesn't use partman-zfs.
15:15 <bdmurray> sil2100: great, I guess you knew I was gonna volunteer you
15:15 <xnox> yeah, cause then it could have "reorganize zfs pools" rather than "transform ext4"
15:15 <seb128> bdmurray, 'zfs' seems to exist as a tag/being used today
15:15 <bdmurray> sil2100: because its do-release-upgrade it will need SRU'ing to disco - its not part of the tarball
15:16 <sil2100> hm, ok
15:16 <sil2100> Is this carded already? ;)
15:16 <bdmurray> doko: have you seen bug 1848211?
15:16 <ubottu> bug 1848211 in valgrind (Ubuntu) "valgrind fails to use debug symbols from glib/gtk" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1848211
15:16 <xnox> ubiquity could re-wrtie debconf template to say zfs, although ext4 is used =)
15:16 <bdmurray> sil2100: I will card it and give it to you
15:19 <sil2100> bdmurray: thanks!
15:19 <bdmurray> seb128: let's just use zfs then
15:21 <bdmurray> Okay, we will card the valgrind issue and get it worked on.
15:21 <bdmurray> Is there anybody interested in learning more about apport and whoopsie?
15:21 <bdmurray> bug 1848064
15:21 <ubottu> bug 1848064 in apport (Ubuntu) "/usr/share/apport/whoopsie-upload-all:PermissionError:/usr/share/apport/whoopsie-upload-all@168:collect_info:process_report" [High,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1848064
15:22 <bdmurray> I've moved to rls-ee-incoming
15:23 <bdmurray> waveform: ^?
15:23 <waveform> bdmurray, I can take a look
15:23 <bdmurray> waveform: okay, I'm happy to help if you want to meet later today.
15:24 <bdmurray> cyphermox: Since we've some experience culling bug lists - would you mind helping me with rls-ee?
15:24 <bdmurray> rls-bb has bug 1848880
15:24 <ubottu> bug 1848880 in debian-installer (Ubuntu) "Server 18.04.3 OEM Install option doesn't work" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1848880
15:25 <bdmurray> Is there somebody who can test that to see if it is accurate?
15:25 <bdmurray> Specifically "oem-config-prepare" not being found
15:26 <bdmurray> cyphermox: ^?
15:27 <cyphermox> sure
15:27 <cyphermox> oem-config-prepare not found is... weird
15:27 <bdmurray> seb128: it's rls-x-incoming. ;-) I went to rls-xx-incoming report so made the same mistake!
15:28 <bdmurray> bug 1849004
15:28 <ubottu> bug 1849004 in update-manager (Ubuntu) "update-manager stop to load update descriptions" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1849004
15:28 <seb128> bdmurray, ahah, thx for pointing it out!
15:29 <bdmurray> it looks like there might even be a fix in that update-manager bug
15:29 <bdmurray> I'll go ahead and card that and we can sort it out later.
15:30 <bdmurray> #topic Team proposed-migration report
15:33 <bdmurray> https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/proposed-migration/update_excuses_by_team.html#foundations-bugs
15:34 <bdmurray> We've agreed to just start tackling the issues on that list.
15:35 <bdmurray> And we'll coordinate the things on which we are working in #ubuntu-devel.
15:36 <cyphermox> not -release?
15:36 <bdmurray> cyphermox: I think #ubuntu-devel has more people on it.
15:37 <cyphermox> ack
15:37 <rbalint> if something is to be stuck in -proposed longer you can record your observation in a but and mark it with 'update-excuse' tag
15:37 <cyphermox> yup :)
15:37 <rbalint> bugg
15:37 <sil2100> rbalint: let's get that documented somewhere for people to easily access, maybe the promosed-migration wiki page?
15:37 <bdmurray> and then what happens with 'update-excuse' does it show up on the report?
15:38 <cyphermox> rbalint: that would be a good blog post
15:38 <cyphermox> (and we can retweet and whatnot ;)
15:38 <rbalint> bugs with 'update-excuse' show up on update_excuses.html
15:38 <rbalint> cyphermox, thanks, will write that post
15:38 <bdmurray> There also used to be "Public Service Announcement" emails to ubuntu-devel
15:38 <cyphermox> cool
15:39 <bdmurray> I think those would be good to bring back.
15:39 <cyphermox> discourse topic on coordinating proposed work?
15:39 <bdmurray> cyphermox: a discourse topic on what?
15:40 <cyphermox> I'm suggesting using a discourse topic on meta-discussing how to prioritize
15:40 <vorlon> no thank you
15:40 <cyphermox> ie: is there more we can do that using a bug tag? any other tech tools we can build to help
15:41 <cyphermox> and discourse topic is interchangeable with mailing list thread.
15:41 <rbalint> cyphermox, changing nick to name_working_on_foo :-)
15:41 <cyphermox> yuck
15:41 <bdmurray> I think before solving a problem we should keep track of how often the problem happens.
15:41 <vorlon> discourse is way too heavy weight, the state of -proposed changes hourly
15:41 <sil2100> I'd still like it added to the wiki page
15:41 <cyphermox> I'm specifically not talking about the coordination itself
15:41 <vorlon> oh
15:41 <sil2100> I mean, how to use the tag of course
15:41 <vorlon> ok
15:41 <cyphermox> about the process of coordinating
15:42 <bdmurray> So let's keep track of how often we have the duplicated effort.
15:42 <cyphermox> ie. how we can improve, if things go wrong, postmortem ,etc.
15:42 <bdmurray> Let's move on.
15:43 <sil2100> cyphermox: sounds good
15:44 <bdmurray> #topic AOB
15:44 <bdmurray> I'd like to move this meeting to 30 minutes earlier.
15:44 <infinity> bdmurray: -12
15:45 <cyphermox> no opinion
15:46 <bdmurray> Okay, I don't want to lose anybody and we've had this slot for a long time.
15:46 <bdmurray> Anything else?
