Anyone find any problems they think are worth holding back the beta 2 iso images? 20:07:37 <auroud_85[m]> <tarazed "Another flashplayer plugin updat"> Hi adobe said it is the last one in release note 20:08:02 <tarazed> Cheers 20:08:09 <auroud_85[m]> <DavidWHodgins "My limited testing has all gone "> No, there is not any issue 20:08:22 <wilcal> https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27796 20:08:24 <[mbot> [ 27796 – Memory test can cause reboot (Toshiba Portege R930) ] 20:08:33 <wilcal> That's been mentioned 20:08:40 <auroud_85[m]> Oh sorry 20:08:57 <auroud_85[m]> i586 one this? 20:09:15 <Benmc> both 20:09:55 <auroud_85[m]> Ok 20:10:04 <MageiaTJ> I tried memtest on my ancient Inspiron, with no problems. 20:10:22 <Benmc> beta2 for me has been a cakewalk, apart from memtest 20:10:42 <DavidWHodgins> Yeah. That's a hardware problem that can be worked around with one test disabled in memtest 20:10:45 <Benmc> lets not get complacent 20:11:31 <wilcal> We probably need Beta 2 to be giving a wider audience 20:12:03 <Benmc> yeah, but how to get them to try - and report problems 20:12:34 <Benmc> rather than try - it has a problem and move opn to something else 20:12:41 <wilcal> Dave, there was a 350 plus update to M8 a couple days ago. Is all that in the latest isos? 20:12:44 <DavidWHodgins> I'll ask on the qa list if anyone has bugs they think should hold the beta 2 release, since many testers are not here. If no objections raised will suggest starting iso roll out tomorrow. 20:12:50 <auroud_85[m]> <Benmc "yeah, but how to get them to t"> Sending bugs reports to Bugsquad 20:13:17 <DavidWHodgins> wilcal: That's not enough of a reason to hold the beta 2 iso images. There will always be more updates. 20:13:33 <auroud_85[m]> <wilcal "Dave, there was a 350 plus updat"> I don't think it is Plasma 20:14:00 <DavidWHodgins> Most of it was libreoffice related. 20:14:03 <Benmc> its the later part that I think triers have the problem with, auroud_85 20:14:03 <wilcal> Those things make me nervious 20:14:07 <auroud_85[m]> Plus 20.12 Plasma Applications were released today 20:14:14 <wilcal> It all wnet through here just fine 20:14:24 <DavidWHodgins> brb 20:14:55 <wilcal> If you dodn't notice I found a problem with isodumper 20:15:06 <wilcal> that's still in there 20:15:30 <auroud_85[m]> Papoteur said it was a bug with running isodumper as root 20:15:43 <wilcal> in a terminal in your user directory you need to create mkdir ~/.isodumper 20:15:56 <wilcal> otherwise it won't work 20:16:10 <wilcal> I donno why it worked before 20:16:35 <wilcal> https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27786 20:16:37 <[mbot> [ 27786 – Isodumper fails to launch ] 20:17:48 <wilcal> IMO Beta 2 is functional enough to give it a wider release 20:17:56 <DavidWHodgins> back 20:18:03 <wilcal> Hi Dave. 20:18:19 <DavidWHodgins> Ok, let's move on. 20:18:19 <wilcal> I support a wider release of Beta 2 20:18:26 <DavidWHodgins> #topic * Testing Mageia 8 Beta 2 - just Released ISOs - How's it going? 20:18:33 <DavidWHodgins> Oops 20:18:42 <wilcal> #topic Testing Updates & Backports 20:18:52 <DavidWHodgins> Thanks. :-) 20:18:59 <wilcal> What is holding up Vbox exactly 20:19:14 <wilcal> cuz that's holding up an important kernel 20:19:15 <DavidWHodgins> 32 bit guest additions 20:19:54 <DavidWHodgins> That's needed for i586 guest images 20:20:32 <DavidWHodgins> Anyone use jackit sound systems? 20:20:44 <bri_an> I don't use those 20:21:29 <wilcal> Sorry not here 20:21:32 <DavidWHodgins> IIRC, for jackit, we've approved those just based on a clean install over the prior version. 20:21:46 <DavidWHodgins> I expect that will have to happen again. 20:21:52 <wilcal> I've turned most of my multimedia stuff over to my Raspberry Pi platforms 20:22:23 <DavidWHodgins> Anyone use a smart card reader? 20:22:37 <bri_an> nope 20:22:44 <wilcal> credit card of sd card 20:23:04 <auroud_85[m]> No. 20:23:06 <DavidWHodgins> credit/debit/security card 20:23:14 <wilcal> no I do not 20:23:31 <DavidWHodgins> So that will likely also just be a clean update test. 20:23:38 <auroud_85[m]> Just a side note, ghibo has made a x86_64 version of chromium available to Cauldron. 20:23:45 <MageiaTJ> Not here.

Good association here in France... Lol 20:24:48 <DavidWHodgins> I haven't looked at the rest, but the list looks familar as things we've tested before. 20:25:30 <DavidWHodgins> So it's just a matter of everyone remembering to keep testing updates as well as iso images. 20:25:46 <tarazed> Not so easy. 20:25:47 <wilcal> List is moderate length 20:26:28 <wilcal> Anything needs to be discussed on the list 20:26:37 <DavidWHodgins> True, but nothing that's been inactive for more than 4 days. 20:27:05 <DavidWHodgins> As always, please start with the important security updates at the top of the list 20:27:24 <auroud_85[m]> As you said David, 27681 needs a repackaging 20:28:17 <DavidWHodgins> Added the feedback keyword to that one. 20:28:49 <DavidWHodgins> #topic * Anything else? 20:29:02 <DavidWHodgins> Anyone have anything else to discuss? 20:29:20 <wilcal> This is a problem if you can put in a word David: 20:29:21 <wilcal> https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26998 20:29:23 <[mbot> [ 26998 – Bluegriffon fails to launch: usr/lib64/bluegriffon/libxul.so No such file or directory.
