15:31 <rbalint> vorlon, i'm waiting for MIR team's response on google-guest-agent MIR 15:32 <rbalint> also lintian: https://code.launchpad.net/~rbalint/ubuntu-seeds/+git/platform/+merge/391464 15:32 <vorlon> yeah, which I've said I'm not keen on... 15:32 <vorlon> was anyone looking at the MIR side of the lintian unblock? 15:32 <rbalint> vorlon, is it a good time/place to discuss it further? 15:32 <vorlon> might as well 15:33 <vorlon> the problem with saying "we could support it even if it's not in main" is that things being in main is the way we track that it needs to have security support 15:33 <vorlon> so just demoting it, without some plan for keeping it on the security team's radar, isn't good for us 15:34 <rbalint> vorlon i guess this concern is mostly about devscripts 15:34 <doko> that's the same for a lot of build tools 15:34 <vorlon> devscripts isn't just build tools; they're tools run on developers' systems that interact with the network 15:34 <xnox> which we do not sru to keep working correctly 15:35 <vorlon> I wasn't aware they needed srus? 15:35 <rbalint> vorlon, both devscripts and lintian had security updates 15:35 <rbalint> vorlon, should i get security team's consent to support them in universe? 15:36 <vorlon> rbalint: that would be a prereq for demotion in my view, yes 15:36 <rbalint> vorlon, would that be sufficient for the demotion? 15:36 <vorlon> and in the meantime it might be quicker to just get the MIR done? 15:36 <doko> before it gets done, it has to be written ... 15:37 <rbalint> if the ack from security team would be sufficient than it may get done faster than the mirs 15:37 <vorlon> doko: can you remind us which ones needed a written MIR vs a perl fast-track? 15:37 <vorlon> rbalint: I am doubtful that they will give a quick ack :) 15:37 <doko> discount, which is not maintained by the perl group 15:37 <vorlon> because they would need to have process in place for tracking it before they could just commit to supporting 15:37 <rbalint> vorlon, maybe they surprise us :-) 15:42 <vorlon> ok, gobject-introspection look like it's only blocked by freeze 15:42 <bdmurray> okay, we've got a plan for lintian wha'ts next? 15:42 <vorlon> sil2100: will we unblock that post-beta? 15:42 <vorlon> and then procps was already mentioned by bdmurray, that's his 15:42 <sil2100> Yeah, we'll drop the freeze 15:43 <vorlon> so that's all 15:43 <sil2100> (on britney) 15:43 <xnox> i thought you keep freeze through to the release...... 15:43 <sil2100> (queue freeze stays) 15:43 <xnox> i thought we did that before 15:43 <xnox> oh, ok. 15:43 <vorlon> and that's the list 15:43 <vorlon> bdmurray: 15:43 <bdmurray> #AOB 15:44 <bdmurray> #topic AOB 15:44 <sil2100> Beta being released today! 15:44 <bdmurray> While reviewing more release upgrade bugs I'm finding more duplicates of bug 1887544 15:44 <ubottu> bug 1887544 in ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu) "upgrade from 18.04 to 20.04 fails to calculate if python-pyqt5-dbg is installed" [High,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1887544 15:44 <vorlon> \o/ 15:45 <slyon> I will be out tomorrow.. 15:45 <xnox> bdmurray: and they are recent right?

16:00 <bdmurray> Given that we tell people to use it, we probably should be. 16:00 <vorlon> or stop recommending it :) 16:00 <vorlon> but yeah, worth investigating 16:01 <bdmurray> The alternative being to tell people to use --allow-third-party?
