It's dvd drive needs to be replaced, and now it's getting hardware errors reading from a usb stick, so have to limit my testing to my 64 bit system. 20:22:50 <MrsB> I've a 32 bit system to test with at the moment sat here so that complements you well Dave 20:22:51 <Tonyb> discovered installs don't go well if the laptop is bouncing on the spare seat driving to work! 20:23:01 <MrsB> lol Tonyb 20:23:08 <wilcal> Lot's o Win XP systems coming on the scrap market 20:23:22 <DavidWHodgins> I haven't been able to get the dual cd to install in 32 bit mode, on my 64 bit system. 20:23:29 <MrsB> So apart from car sickness we're doing everything OK you think? 20:23:36 <Tonyb> yes 20:23:55 <MrsB> great :) 20:23:57 <lewyssmith> MrsB: You sent a few links which I followed up/actioned, but see nothing about the ISOs themselves nor 'rsync'ing them 20:24:05 <DavidWHodgins> Supposed to be able to hold down the shift key, then type in 32, press enter twice, the proceed, but on my 64 bit system, it doesn't work. Works ok in vb though. 20:24:22 <wilcal> I don't see the dual on: http://mirrors.kernel.org/mageia/iso/cauldron/ 20:24:25 <[mbot> [ Index of /mageia/iso/cauldron ] 20:24:25 <MrsB> Ok, apologies for that then lewyssmith I'll be sure you get them for beta4 20:24:36 <Kernewes> wilcal: is the beta3 dual out yet? 20:24:51 <MrsB> #action MrsB to check the list of ISO testers and update email list 20:25:00 <lewyssmith> I can only test 32-bit until EFI is ready 20:25:02 <DavidWHodgins> No. It was decided to leave it till beta 4, due to problems getting a 32 bit install to work. 20:25:05 <MrsB> beta 3 will be without dualcd 20:25:15 <wilcal> K 20:25:24 <MrsB> I saw something about grub2-efi lewyssmith 20:25:47 <DavidWHodgins> Bug 9301 20:25:48 <[mbot> Bug https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9301 normal, Normal, ennael1, ennael1, RESOLVED FIXED, beta 3 dual cd fails to install on i586 at perl-XML-SAX-Expat, perl-XML-SAX 20:26:04 <lewyssmith> MrsB: I have been told "It will be ready for Mag3" 20:26:06 <DavidWHodgins> Oops. Wrong one. 20:26:13 <wilcal> Is Grub2 20:26:13 <wilcal> still have'n problems 20:26:27 <MrsB> It was maybe a freeze push request from Thierry 20:27:03 <MrsB> Grub 2 was not on the live isos but tmb is hoping to be able to fit it on there somehow for beta4 20:27:09 <Tonyb> http://blog.hansenpartnership.com/owning-your-windows-8-uefi-platform/ 20:27:30 <Tonyb> This tells you how to install your own Platform Key for UEFI, after that you can authorize mageia I think 20:27:42 <MrsB> If everybody is happy then, lets move on again 20:27:48 <DavidWHodgins> grub 2 is working ok for me with the standard installer. Still a work in progress for the live iso images. 20:27:53 <wilcal> One issue with M3B3 20:28:00 <MrsB> ok 20:28:01 <wilcal> Over the last couple weeks I've concentrated on one specific M3B3 issue. 20:28:01 <wilcal> I spent considerable time trying to define an NFS wrinkle and that resulted in: 20:28:01 <wilcal> Bug 9366 - Installing/running from a Live-CD/DVD prevents the MCC from finding NFS servers. 20:28:01 <wilcal> David and Manuel are involved. Seems to be a shorewall wrinkle. 20:28:01 <wilcal> I mentioned this to David last mageia-qa meeting. I did some testing just before this meeting 20:28:01 <wilcal> Posted results in the Bug 20:28:03 <[mbot> Bug https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9366 normal, Normal, bugsquad, bugsquad, NEW , Installing/running from a Live-CD/DVD prevents the MCC from finding NFS servers 20:28:16 <DavidWHodgins> #topic Luigi's Roundup 20:28:21 <lewyssmith> Tonyb: Repeat: this is to do with 'secure boot' - another issue 20:28:37 <MrsB> Luigi12_work: ping? 20:28:44 <Luigi12_work> boo 20:29:01 * Kernewes wakes up 20:29:12 <MrsB> For anyone who doesn't know already, you'll see alot of Luigi12 (AKA David Walser) he builds most of our security updates 20:29:26 <Tonyb> I was responding to the EFI comment 20:29:34 <Luigi12_work> so perl should be testable now, the update was backed out and now it's just the original release version patched. That will make things a lot easier there. 20:30:05 <Luigi12_work> sssd still needs tested, and telepathy-gabble (tested with empathy) needs testing on 64-bit 20:30:11 <MrsB> perl packages are missing signature, same as cauldron from yesterday 20:30:22 <Luigi12_work> the new one today is the poppler update, and I need some feedback on that 20:30:34 <DavidWHodgins> sssd I'm working on. 20:30:40 <wilcal> Ya did an update of my 32-bit cauldron today and almost everything had a signature issue 20:30:43 <Luigi12_work> there are PDFs to reproduce the security issues, but I don't know where to find them 20:30:54 <wilcal> Update went ok though 20:30:56 <MrsB> Anybody volunteer to look at telepathy-gabble, it's easy 20:31:03 <MrsB> 64bit 20:31:12 <DavidWHodgins> Has perl been rebuilt with the updated signing key? 20:31:18 <MrsB> not yet Dave 20:31:26 <tristan-campbell> I could maybe take a swing at telepathy-gabble 20:31:34 <MrsB> Nice,well done tristan-campbell 20:31:43 <MrsB> Dave, will you be around to help him? 20:32:02 <DavidWHodgins> tristan-campbell: It's Bug 9316 20:32:04 <[mbot> Bug https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9316 normal, Normal, qa-bugs, qa-bugs, NEW , telepathy-gabble new security issue CVE-2013-1769, telepathy-gabble-0.16.0-2.mga2.src.rpm 20:32:05 <tristan-campbell> yeah, I'll definitely be asking questions 20:32:32 <Luigi12_work> can it be signed without being rebuilt or does it have to be rebuilt? 20:33:03 <MrsB> I'm not sure Luigi12_work, pterjan noticed the key had expired, it's sysadminy 20:33:04 <DavidWHodgins> I think it has to be rebuilt. 20:33:29 <Luigi12_work> hmm, guess we'll see when it's solved in Cauldron 20:33:30 <MrsB> tristan-campbell: just follow this as you do your testing https://wiki.mageia.org/en/QA_process_for_validating_updates 20:33:37 <Luigi12_work> hopefully they won't have to rebuild everything 20:33:53 <tristan-campbell> MrsB: thanks 20:34:00 <MrsB> He said they'd all have to be signed so it maybe just needs signing rather than rebuilding 20:34:22 <DavidWHodgins> tristan-campbell: http://mageia.madb.org/tools/updates shows updates waiting for qa testing. 20:34:28 <[mbot> [ Mageia App Db ] 20:34:54 <MrsB> #info perl packages need signing (missing signature) 20:35:12 <MrsB> Luigi12_work: I presume any you built since yesterday will need signing too 20:35:16 <tristan-campbell> DavidWHodgins: thanks 20:36:29 <MrsB> #info poppler may need signing too 20:36:35 <Luigi12_work> yeah just poppler 20:36:58 <Luigi12_work> neoclust built ptlib for another security update, but it has two other packages that also need built, so that can be dealt with when the others (opal3 and ekiga) are ready 20:37:08 <DavidWHodgins> Will telepathy-gabble need signing too? 20:37:17 <MrsB> no, that was before 20:37:20 <Tonyb> with apologies, off to work.. 5am will actually work better.
