[14:01:34] <wiesand> good morning
[14:01:39] kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlAD8979B7 joins the room
[14:01:51] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlAD8979B7> howdy
[14:02:06] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlAD8979B7> Thanks for working on the buildbot upgrade
[14:02:46] <mvita> present
[14:03:03] <meffie> yeah, it's taking longer that i wanted.
[14:03:11] <meffie> s/that/than/
[14:03:58] <meffie> as it turns out, we need python 2.7 for the new master, but i was able to make a local version for the python virtualenv.
[14:03:59] <wiesand> Nothing has happened on the 1.6 branch in gerrit last week.
[14:04:03] <wiesand> Any Linux news?
[14:04:20] <mvita> a little bit
[14:04:25] <meffie> seems 4.12 will be exciting.
[14:04:28] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlAD8979B7> Did EPEL have python2.7 for you?
[14:04:29] <mvita> Ubuntu's builder is working now
[14:04:47] <mvita> so our failures are now genuine on 4.11
[14:04:57] <wiesand> :-(
[14:05:01] <mvita> I have not had time to look at why
[14:05:12] <wiesand> how "exciting"?
[14:05:25] <mvita> but I suspect (from the symptoms) that the client builds but fails to run
[14:06:10] <mvita> I got freed up from a high-pressure thing today and so will have time to coordinate w/ Joe and figure out what's wrong.
[14:06:26] <mvita> nothing on 4.12 yet
[14:06:39] <wiesand> Thanks!
[14:07:39] <wiesand> I think that's it for 1.6.
[14:08:00] <wiesand> Ben, want to talk about 1.8?
[14:08:33] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlAD8979B7> Also not a whole lot of progress.
I'm pretty close to giving up on finding time to qemu and pulling out
the old hardware with vmware on it.
[14:08:47] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlAD8979B7> Does anyone know if the two ubik submissions we got recently are
related or independent?
[14:08:49] <meffie> heh
[14:09:28] <mvita> well
[14:09:30] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlAD8979B7> I did get the freebsd build fixes in, at least.
I think we need to crank out a few more sysnames, too, though.
[14:09:33] <meffie> related in that one was found while testing the other.
[14:10:02] <mvita> the bad news is that ubik is …interesting…
[14:10:09] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlAD8979B7> Okay. But they're not, like, alternative approaches to the same
underlying issue, we think.
[14:10:17] <meffie> ubik is horrible
[14:10:24] <mvita> the good news is that we are rapidly increasing our knowledge base on it
[14:10:39] <mvita> and are able to identify and fix problems as we improve
[14:10:45] <meffie> yes, they are not alternatives.
[14:11:26] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlAD8979B7> I'm still trying to put out the 2017Q1 freebsd status report, so time
has been at a premium.
[14:11:47] <mvita> lots of little race and timing and state corner cases that LWP almost succeeds in papering over
[14:12:58] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlAD8979B7> I'd believe that
[14:14:39] <meffie> ben, thanks for merging the rpm spec changes. i can build rpms for 1.8.0x now (using the in-tree spec file)
[14:15:19] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlAD8979B7> yay
[14:16:59] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlAD8979B7> I suppose we should probably go back and find the 1.8 todo list, but
my current sense is that we can issue a beta (1? 2?) once the RT
issue gets addressed.
[14:17:36] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlAD8979B7> That would probably go along with making an actual branch, I think.
[14:17:40] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlAD8979B7> Any thoughts on that?
[14:18:17] <wiesand> sounds reasonable
[14:18:21] <meffie> yeah, i think i can get ted's tickets closed now, and should take time to work on gco133654 again
[14:21:56] <meffie> motion to adjourn so ben can finish his freebsd report ! :)
[14:22:27] <wiesand> sustained
[14:22:34] <wiesand> Thanks a lot everyone!
[14:22:53] <mvita> bye
[14:23:07] <wiesand> review review review….
[14:23:12] wiesand leaves the room
[14:23:27] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlAD8979B7> Thanks
