The only bugs I found, that I think should be considered as blockers for beta 3 are both regressions. Diskdrake won't let you select/use an existing encrypted filesystem. Installer shows firewall disabled, even if it isn't. 20:15:00 <MrsB> the Wifi problems, 8228 20:15:10 * MrsB trying to find the other one 20:15:13 <Kernewes> I couldn't get the firewall enabled at all 20:15:25 <Kernewes> it keeps going back to showing no firewall 20:15:32 <Kernewes> even after installation 20:15:53 <wilcal> So no firewall even if you put one up 20:15:54 <DavidWHodgins> True, but after install, shorwall was working, with the rules selected during configuration. 20:16:04 <MrsB> ahh kernewes intel gpu problems bug 8803 20:16:06 <[mbot> Bug https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8803 critical, High, bugsquad, bugsquad, NEW, Can't boot 3beta2 on HP Pavilion g6 laptop (intel card) 20:16:13 <hurdman> MrsB: the wifi is fixed, no ? 20:16:25 <MrsB> in cauldron, yes 20:16:31 <Kernewes> I'll have to have another look at that tomorrow now 20:16:34 <rindolf> Oh, sorry for having missed the beginning of the meeting - was distracted. 20:16:35 <rindolf> Hi all. 20:16:40 <MrsB> hiya rindolf 20:16:44 <rindolf> MrsB: hi. 20:16:55 <wilcal> FWIW my M3B2 laptop (DELL) works wonderfully well with it's WiFi 20:17:00 <ennael> these are annoying bugs but I guess not critical enough to rebuild all isos 20:17:06 <MrsB> so, I don't know. It's up to you guys whether those issues are worth a rebuild and more tests :\ 20:17:21 <Kernewes> MrsB: why did you put the PDF viewer one as a release blocker? 20:17:36 <MrsB> because it can't be added once the isos are out 20:17:51 <Kernewes> could be in beta3 though? 20:17:56 <sebsebsebeeepc> hi 20:18:09 <MrsB> release blocker meaning final release rather than beta 20:18:20 <Kernewes> sebsebsebeeepc: wasn't your nick long enough already? 20:18:27 <ennael> bug number for pdf viewer ? 20:18:37 <MrsB> hrmm 20:18:41 * Kernewes can't remember will have to look 20:18:57 <wilcal> My biggest issue(s) are the on-going NFS issues 20:18:59 <ennael> ah 20:19:00 <ennael> 8796 20:19:00 <sebsebsebeeepc> Kernewes: not using my normla nick or normal computer for this kind of stuff 20:19:11 <Kernewes> #8796 20:19:41 <MrsB> that's the one bug 8796 20:19:42 <[mbot> Bug https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8796 minor, release_blocker, bugsquad, bugsquad, NEW, No PDF viewer with LXDE-only installation 20:20:24 <ennael> well LXDE is chosen for a minimal install so it's not intended to provide everything a "normal" DM would provide 20:20:33 <hurdman> agree 20:20:46 <MrsB> but it does offer to open it with gimp 20:20:50 <DavidWHodgins> The pdf viewer can always be installed later. 20:21:08 <hurdman> ( and the #8803 is very strange can't get the same on an over intel :/ ) 20:21:09 <Kernewes> it's something most people will need, I would have thought 20:21:14 <DavidWHodgins> We don't have a live iso using lxde, so it shouldn't be a release blocker. 20:21:38 <tmb> I think I need to rebuild live images for new drakx-net/meta-task/stage2 and some more broadcom-wl fixes., drop xguest... and I think the same packages should be updated on install dvds too 20:21:41 <alfred__> DavidWHodgins: agreed 20:21:43 <ennael> still LXDE is used for minimal install and if we add lots of requires then we cannot use it anymore 20:21:55 <Kernewes> ok 20:22:27 <malo> maybe that bug is more about the mimetypes, no? 20:22:42 <MrsB> I'd much rather we didn't rebuild but think it's right that we consider it 20:22:47 <DavidWHodgins> tmb: Does that include a fix for diskdrake, selecting/using existing encrypted filesystems? 20:23:26 <ennael> tmb: it seems to be all about broadcom. 20:23:29 <ennael> ? 20:23:45 <hurdman> DavidWHodgins: it's not fixed , isn't it ? 20:23:56 <ennael> I don't think so 20:23:59 <leuhmanu> DavidWHodgins: nobody say it was fixed 20:24:18 <DavidWHodgins> True, but the bug reports don't always get updated. 20:25:36 <MrsB> Is it possible to release from fosdem? 20:26:13 <Kernewes> MrsB: you mean let ennael go home again afterwards? 20:26:19 <MrsB> lol 20:26:40 <ennael> no way 20:27:06 <ennael> to avoid loosing people we should rebuild tonight and say we finalize it for saturday the latest 20:27:13 <MrsB> ok, so if we rebuild we need to be able to test and release tomorrow 20:27:16 <MrsB> yep 20:27:16 <ennael> there won't be many changes 20:27:24 <MrsB> minimal testing only then 20:27:27 <ennael> yep 20:27:38 <wilcal> I'll look at some tomorrow afternoon CA time 20:27:39 <ennael> so don't get upset if we don't take into account other bugs 20:27:45 <MrsB> nope 20:27:48 <DavidWHodgins> Ok 20:28:06 <ennael> would be nice to share isos between people 20:28:12 <ennael> to avoid multiple tests 20:28:16 <MrsB> so is the final decision to do a rebuild? 20:28:39 <ennael> looks so if the point is to test also broadcom drivers 20:29:05 <wilcal> Unfortunately my laptop uses a Atheros AR9285 20:29:05 <ennael> and that was the point explained by tmb in council meeting 20:29:07 <tmb> yep, and the drak-net fix is also for all wireless users 20:29:17 <ennael> yep 20:29:28 <hurdman> i have one with a broadcom 20:29:30 <MrsB> #info there will be one final rebuild to add some fixes for broadcom, drakx-net, meta-task and remove xguest from live isos 20:29:32 <ennael> so can we share isos between people ? 20:29:57 <MrsB> #info please do minimal testing on the new ISos as we'd like to release tomorrow in time for fosdem 20:30:10 <tmb> but we'll cherrypick the rpms, so no extra packages will be updated.... 20:30:23 <DavidWHodgins> ennael: We already do. I have a fast enough system, that I try to test all iso images. Most people only test a few. But, I don't have wireless. 20:30:27 <MrsB> #info please try to optimise your time and test ISOs which havent yet been tested rather than duplicating 20:30:33 <leuhmanu> (we have only 3 releases before the official so this is indeed better) 20:31:01 <MrsB> Should we aim for a deadline? 20:31:10 <ennael> yes 20:31:17 <ennael> or it will be endless 20:31:20 <MrsB> yep 20:31:21 <hurdman> :) 20:31:27 <DavidWHodgins> How about 24 hours from now? 20:31:27 <ennael> people are tired and I think it's normal 20:31:33 <MrsB> people will need to make preparations for travelling too 20:31:42 <ennael> DavidWHodgins: if you think it's doable then go for it 20:31:56 <DavidWHodgins> Depends on how long the rebuilding takes. 20:31:56 <ennael> would be nice to avoid 2d we on isos qa 20:32:08 <ennael> I can have the isos done within 2h 20:32:10 <sebsebsebeeepc> missed the begining of this, so uhmm one ore build to test wireless and such is it 20:32:13 <MrsB> I'm thinking more midday tomorrow 20:32:16 <MrsB> UTC 20:32:35 <MrsB> thats right sebsebsebeeepc, yep 20:33:02 <sebsebsebeeepc> MrsB: different time zones etc, 24 hours from now would be better probably 20:33:19 <sebsebsebeeepc> MrsB: unlsss you want DavidWHodgins to be testing at night for example :d 20:33:23 <MrsB> ennael tmb when are you travelling to fosdem? 20:33:25 <hurdman> to short for me 20:33:42 <sebsebsebeeepc> MrsB: that's next week FOSDEM 20:33:42 <DavidWHodgins> If the iso images are ready in 2 hours, I can run basic tests after that, on all iso images, but I don't have wireless, so can't test that part. 20:33:48 <sebsebsebeeepc> MrsB: next weekend, not this one 20:33:52 <MrsB> ohhh right, of course 20:33:54 <ennael> :) 20:34:03 <hurdman> 24 hours seems nice, no ? 20:34:04 <MrsB> well, that's one worry fewer then 20:34:21 <ennael> still if we can close it tomorrow that would be great 20:34:32 <sebsebsebeeepc> ennael: yep 20:34:34 <MrsB> yes, in that case 24hrs is good. I had it in my head that people were on the road tomorrow :D 20:35:15 <sebsebsebeeepc> MrsB: I got wireless on my netbook 20:35:19 <sebsebsebeeepc> not sure which 20:35:37 <sebsebsebeeepc> i guess a ISO worth teting on it then? 20:35:52 <MrsB> yep indeed 20:36:09 <tmb> ok, me goes preparing frozen tree with selected updates... 20:36:14 <DavidWHodgins> I do have a wireless usb dongle, but the wireless "feature" in my router died, so I have to use a wired connection. No unsecured neighbours around. :-) 20:36:15 <ennael> ok 20:36:29 <sebsebsebeeepc> kind of off topic, but when is the new artwork coming in Beta 3 20:36:33 <wilcal> M3B2 Cauldron works GREAT on my Atheros AR9285 Dell Laptop 20:36:33 <sebsebsebeeepc> ? 20:36:38 <MrsB> that's a thought. i wonder if I can find an old USB owifi thing 20:36:48 <ennael> ok preparing new isos then 20:36:50 <leuhmanu> DavidWHodgins: topic of next council meeting :) 20:37:14 <MrsB> sebsebsebeeepc: ^^ 20:37:28 <sebsebsebeeepc> MrsB: hmm? 20:37:34 <hurdman> if the isos are here in two hours, i probably can test the broadcom this night 20:37:39 <MrsB> Is everybody OK with this? Can we have one last big push tomorrow to get these ISOs out of the door? 20:37:47 <DavidWHodgins> Yep. 20:37:48 <sebsebsebeeepc> MrsB: yep 20:37:56 <leuhmanu> yep 20:37:57 <wilcal> Sounds like a plan to me 20:38:02 <Kernewes> Depends if the doc says I can go back to work tomorrow 20:38:03 <hurdman> deal 20:38:06 <sebsebsebeeepc> if the ISO's are made in time may een test tonight 20:38:12 <MrsB> I'm sure he won't Kernewes 20:38:22 <Kernewes> lol 20:38:35 <ennael> looking more and more like a childbirth :) 20:38:36 <hurdman> Kernewes: say that you have a release 20:39:14 <MrsB> #info please let's have one last big push tonight/tomorrow to get the new ISOs tested (when they land ) and release beta 2! 20:39:20 <sebsebsebeeepc> MrsB: hmm ok o its Ateheros wireless in this netbook 20:39:27 <MrsB> thanks guys 20:39:30 <MrsB> next topic? 20:39:49 <sebsebsebeeepc> Atheros 20:39:59 <DavidWHodgins> #topic Luigi's Roundup 20:40:02 <Luigi12_work> boo 20:40:03 <MrsB> :) 20:40:19 <wilcal> HiYa Luigi 20:40:20 <MrsB> If you aren't already aware, Luigi12 prepares most of our security updates 20:40:25 <Luigi12_work> so as always the available updates for testing are here: http://mageia.madb.org/tools/updates 20:40:27 <[mbot> [ Mageia App Db ] 20:40:29 <MrsB> We've been neglecting him this last week or so 20:40:35 <DavidWHodgins> I'm currently testing mariadb on both arches. Couldn't reproduce the problem, so just testing using phpmyadmin. 20:40:55 <Luigi12_work> yep mariadb is an important one, even though it's not marked as such 20:41:01 <Luigi12_work> the other important ones are marked 20:41:13 <Luigi12_work> and we actually have a few this week, unlike the last few weeks 20:41:21 <MrsB> no rest for the wicked 20:41:36 <DavidWHodgins> So firefox and thunderbird. 20:41:47 <Luigi12_work> I'm going to rebuild FF this weekend, but the *only* change will be fixing the duckduckgo thing, so it really needs tested so we can get it released hopefully soonish after ddg is fixed 20:42:31 <DavidWHodgins> Should tb be held till ff is ready to release, or can it be pushed before ff? 20:42:38 <MrsB> #info firefox is going to be rebuilt to fix the duckduckgo issues but FF & Thunderbird are high priority 20:42:39 <Luigi12_work> tb should be held 20:43:28 <MrsB> #info Thunderbird should be held until FF is ready 20:43:34 <DavidWHodgins> I've already been testing the current ff update, so minimal testing will be needed for it after the rebuild. I'll test tb tomorrow. 20:43:44 <Luigi12_work_> bah, got disconnected, that was bad timing :o( 20:43:57 <MrsB> you didn't miss alot 20:44:24 <Luigi12_work_> anyway, TB shouldn't be pushed until FF is ready, but they can all be tested now 20:44:45 <MrsB> Have you set the 'blocks' appropriately Luigi12_work_? 20:44:48 <DavidWHodgins> I'll test them tomorrow, after beta 2 testing is done. 20:44:49 <Luigi12_work_> yep 20:44:52 <MrsB> :) 20:45:03 <leuhmanu> (works fine here) 20:45:39 <MrsB> Yep, when beta2 is out we have alot of catching up to do :( 20:45:57 <Luigi12_work_> just been a perfect storm of things that have held this update up, the update to FF 17 meant it needed more testing and there were some bugs that took a while to get fixed, then there was the mass rebuild, then iso testing 20:46:17 <MrsB> all just after xmas 20:46:29 <MrsB> it's been a bit mad this month 20:46:34 <Luigi12_work_> yeah, happy new year, here's some more bugs to fix 20:46:36 <DavidWHodgins> Plus rabbit dying for a day.
