Pretty decent, including this one I'm running on right now 20:04:15 <wilcal> There was a problem with the repo server and that caused problems 20:04:30 <wilcal> also there's been some file signature errors 20:04:51 <Bequimao> Not resolved yet? 20:04:58 <wilcal> So that all makes for fun. M8 was so stable now lots of excitement 20:05:22 <wilcal> I ran into some signature errors yesterday and thank you david for catching those 20:06:03 <wilcal> A couple weeks ago there was lots of signature errors and that casued me to loose a couple test M8 installs 20:06:22 <Bequimao> I can't update libreoffice because of pt_br fonts. 20:06:34 <wilcal> So I would say at this point the M8 repo is in a state of change. 20:07:07 <wilcal> Is that the same update that we just got on M7.1? 20:07:56 <Bequimao> Yes, but I did not see a bug report. 20:08:46 <wilcal> Today I installed the Libreoffice updates to my M7.1 installs and also an about 100 rpm update to my M8 test installs 20:08:56 <wilcal> All went without error. Whew 20:09:37 <wilcal> I wish someone was here to share where we're at on the status of M8 20:09:56 <wilcal> There's a kernel proble with an update and nvidia 20:10:06 <wilcal> so that's an outstanding issue 20:10:39 <wilcal> Maybe you've seen me working on a problem with VLC. audio but no video 20:10:47 <wilcal> others have reproduced that issue 20:11:07 <bri_an> good that it is reproduced 20:11:09 <wilcal> So Cauldron is really being Cauldron right now. Boiling and BUbbling 20:12:01 <wilcal> There is some reports of MCC being broken but I've not seen that 20:12:35 <wilcal> Bottom line I would not recommend using Cauldron in a "Production" environment 20:12:51 <wilcal> And that's always been the case 20:13:05 <wilcal> But it keeps me busy :-)) 20:13:24 <wilcal> Anyone else have comments on M8? 20:14:28 <wilcal> FWIW the safest way to test is as a Client on Vbox. But I have a working client theb create a copy of that called "test" and do my testing on that 20:15:00 <wilcal> break the test client before breaking the stable client 20:15:59 <wilcal> Lets move on 20:16:02 <wilcal> #topic Testing Updates & Backports 20:16:43 <wilcal> I did quite some testing on the Vbox update and that went well for me but I see it's been put into suspension for now 20:16:58 <bri_an> something about 32bit issues? 20:17:43 <wilcal> Vbox, IMO, should NEVER be used on a 32-bit system 20:18:19 <wilcal> anyway the upated verson on M7.1 for me worked just fine 20:18:55 <wilcal> Thunderbird should be an easy test. I've never used THurnderbird 20:19:20 <wilcal> Anything else on updates testing? 20:19:27 <wilcal> make for a short meeting today 20:19:54 <wilcal> lets move on 20:19:56 <wilcal> #topic Anything else? 20:20:17 <wilcal> Things start to get pretty queit for the next weeks or so 20:20:32 <wilcal> hopefully M8 will settle down and we'll see some ISOs 20:20:41 <wilcal> Anything else 20:21:36 <bri_an> WE really need new ISo's 20:21:38 <bri_an> thanks all 20:21:48 <wilcal> M7.1 has been remarkably stable and dependable 20:21:58 <wilcal> OK countdown time 20:22:03 <wilcal> thanks all for being here 20:22:13 <wilcal> We'll do it again next week 20:22:39 <wilcal> BTW I did a couple of M8 netinstalls earlier this week and they were successful 20:22:42 <wilcal> T-5 20:22:53 <wilcal> T-4 20:23:05 <wilcal> T-3 20:23:11 <wilcal> Bye all 20:23:15 <wilcal> T-2 20:23:23 <wilcal> T-1 20:23:26 <wilcal> #endmeeting
