Rather than backporting security fixes to these now, we are moving to a support model where we will be introducing major new upstream versions in stable releases. The reason for this is the support periods from Mozilla are gradually becoming shorter, and it will be more and more difficult for us to maintain our current support model in the future (see [1] for information). We are going to release Firefox 3.6.4 as a minor update to the 3.6 series in Lucid. This will also be rolled out to Hardy, Jaunty and Karmic (along with xulrunner 1.9.2.4). The update for Lucid is quite trivial, but the update in Hardy, Jaunty and Karmic is not quite as simple. Before releasing these updates to the public, we need testing in Firefox, the extensions in the archive and distributions upgrades after those updates. We have published all these packages in a PPA [2] and we will track test results before moving anything to the archive. We need people running *Hardy* (Jaunty and Karmic will see a similar call for testing in the following days) in bare metal or a virtual machine. If you are willing to help, you can follow the instructions below: 1. Add the Mozilla Security PPA to your software sources You need to manually edit your /etc/apt/sources.list and add the following lines: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mozilla-security/ppa/ubuntu hardy main deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mozilla-security/ppa/ubuntu hardy main After saving the file, you have to run: sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 7EBC211F sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get dist-upgrade 2. You have to have an account in our tracking system. Go to http://mozilla.qa.ubuntu.com and click on "Log In" and "Create New Account" 3. To know what to test and how to report back, please, read our instructions in our testing wiki: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Firefox3.6.4Upgrade Thanks! Ara.

How do I go about here? We only give support to Ubuntu packages. If you have installed a PPA you can test, but make sure you indicate that in the comments. If it fails and it is because the use of a PPA, it won't probably get the same attention as a failure in a pure hardy installations. Cheers, Ara.

I apologize for the late reminder, but I have planned a Bug Day for Tomorrow to address bugs with patches attached. The effort will be focussed on identifying those misidentified patches and removing the patch designator while also asking for updates from original reporters to determine if they continue to have issues in the current release. Once we have completed this review, the team will be able to take a hard look at the proposed patches and determine their candidacy in the Maverick release as well as the possibility of SRU to Lucid. Thanks in advance for your help and, as always, look me up in the #ubuntu-kernel channel on FreeNode if you have questions.

The problem with that response is that it basically tells people to permanently enable apport. Here is what I normally use for a one time crash: - ---------------- Thank you for reporting this to Ubuntu. Could you please generate an apport crash report for this? You can enable apport for one instance like this: sudo service apport start force_start=1 I am marking this invalid as apport will open a new bug when the crash is generated.

Ah, OK, makes sense now. Yes, by all means, lets get it done Drew -- would you mind updating the response? If in doubt, you can always propose a change here (the ML) or on the #ubuntu-bugs channel.

I've mailed the students about the approval and their assigned mentors and the mentors too have been informed about their assigned students. Student memberships have been approved for a 3 month period , probably sufficient time for them to get familiarized with triage and become members of Bug Control. This membership time can be extended if required. A lot of the memberships had to be declined since either the lp profile did not have a link to the user-wiki page or was a wrong wiki link or the wiki did not have information about the available time for mentoring. So if anyone has been declined, just update your launchpad profile and wiki page and re-apply. (read the wiki [1] for more info on what is required) If you had applied or are a mentor and havent received the mail yet , check the wiki[1] for the updated list. There is still one inactive account stuck in the membership queue, which I'm not able to remove. I've filed a question for that[2], the lp admins will probably take care of that. There are two students who have not reported back to the mentors in a while, they have been removed from the students list on the wiki. Austin Herman and Bruno Girin , Kindly report back to your respective mentors Draycen DeCator and Sense Hofstede. For now your memberships have been restricted till the end of this month awaiting your reply. Once we hear back from you we can re-assign mentors and extend the membership. One cause for concern is that there is no mentor available between 06:00 - 09:00 UTC. If any of the bug control members are available at those times , Kindly inform us. Now that this has been taken care of, mentors start contacting your students and Let the lessons begin! ;) [0] https://launchpad.net/~bugsquad-mentorship [1] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BugSquad/Mentors [2] https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad-registry/+question/114447 -- Cheers, Vish From cyan.spam at gmail.com Sun Jun 13 22:29:46 2010 From: cyan.spam at gmail.com (David Tombs) Date: Sun, 13 Jun 2010 18:29:46 -0400 Subject: Bug #545681 Movie player requires DVD subpicture decoder but reports not available In-Reply-To: <4C14D997.8050506@tiscali.co.uk> References: <4C14D997.8050506@tiscali.co.uk> Message-ID: <4C155BDA.50005@gmail.com> Looks like Nigel Babu took care of it.

From jeremy.foshee at canonical.com Tue Jun 15 15:02:02 2010 From: jeremy.foshee at canonical.com (Jeremy Foshee) Date: Tue, 15 Jun 2010 11:02:02 -0400 Subject: Kernel Triage Summit planning Message-ID: <20100615150202.GC2512@yoshimitsu> This is an open call for those interested in either Kernel Bug Triage or improving your kernel subsystem knowledge. The Ubuntu Kernel Team decided during UDS-M that a Triage summit of sorts would be a perfect way to help those interested in moving our kernel bugs forward and, as a side effect, was a great way to do an introduction and brief overview of key kernel subsystems such as audio, KMS and graphics, etc. If you are currently triaging kernel bugs on Launchpad, then this summit is geared towards you! If you are interested in a basic understanding of the steps needed to troubleshoot specific subsystem issues, then this is for you as well. The goal here is to provide interested parties with a way to improve their knowledge in a hands-on way while helping the kernel team itself flesh out our wiki documentation and the Kernel bug triage process as a whole. This concept was brought about by a great idea Steve Conklin had during UDS, so when you see him, thank him. :-) The dates are not yet set, but I'd like to have this before the end of the cycle, so if you are interested please send me some e-mail introducing yourself and telling me what particular information you'd like to see presented or just which subsystem you want to know more about. This will help me determine the time requirements as well as get the Subject Matter Experts lined up. Once I have all the information gathered, we will select several possible date/time options for the team and the SMEs to work with. Ideally, I'd like to have this occur on one day, but your input back to me will enable me to see what we will actually need. so please respond to this with your interests! :) I can't wait to get this started!

So if you are a community member interested in learning how to better sort out X bugs (e.g. KMS issues), this is for you! Also note that this is a virtual summit, so no travel is necessary. JFo wants to figure out what days of the week (or weekends) works best, and what times of the days to schedule. Email him your general availability and topic interests. Thanks for posting the heads up about this Jeremy.

I don't know that much about it, though, so there's a couple sections I wouldn't mind someone more knowledgeable filling in: 1) "Sending Direct Commands to HAL" needs to be updated for karmic+. I guess org.freedesktop.DeviceKit.Power commands [2] are the new way? 2) "Finding out why suspend or hibernate aren't offered" is a mess and very out-of-date. Anybody know what the current path of checks is? If nobody else knows these things, I'll try to dig around tomorrow or Friday to fill it in.

Jfo, I think a wiki page with a table of 'Topics' 'subject expert' 'triagers' or something of that nature will be helpful in managing this event. Each subject expert can then add wiki links to the table. We can expand this further with links to new kernel bugs etc. For example: Topic subject expert triager useful links ==================================================================== suspend/resume| ManojIyer | joe, doe,| http://wiki.ubuntu... video | SteveConklin | joe, doe,| http://wiki.ubuntu... Audio | BradFigg | joe, doe,| http://wiki.ubuntu... ====================================================================== This way we know who exactly is signing up to triage what kind of bugs, and roles & responsibilities can be accurately defined. Also its a central place for triagers to contact subject experts and or look for wiki information. Each 'Topic' can be a dynamic link to a launchpad search query that will list latest bugs on say for example Audio, or video.

Do you understand the consequences of this, if you are? I just wanted to ask that first, because I've seen a lot of people installing alpha level releases on their working systems without understanding that doing so WILL break things... SO just a word of caution... don't upgrade to Maverick if you're planning on doing so on your good, working system. Only do it on a test system or installation that you don't mind breaking during the process... (or in a VM which is how I do most of my test work)... Now, the next question is: what is your system running now? If it's running 10.04 LTS, the default is to only upgrade to new LTS releases. If you want to take a 10.04 LTS system and use update-manager or do-release-upgrade, you need to edit the file /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades that file is pretty well documented so you'll be able to see what all the options do. changing prompt from lts to normal should do the trick. If you are not running one of the LTS releases, let us know what release you are running...

In progress is used when *we* are actively working in a fix -- and, if upstream is the party responsible, *we* are not working actively on the bug. In this case, the bug should have been upgraded to Triaged, and an upstream task opened for it, but with *no* bug number (yet) at this point in time. When the OP submits the patch upstream (which will most probably be via a bug upstream), then we can add the bug number on the bug's upstream task. Yes, this is a request for action to the submitter. This is, most probably, because whoever was dealing with this bug did not have the free time necessary to do the upstreaming themselves. Technically, though, the bug is not incomplete, and should not be marked as such. There is no real fast & hard rule. It is a mix of what we want to happen (the wiki's pages) and the Real Work (TM) required adjustments. -- C de-Avillez IRC: hggdh -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

This *was* usually the practice to mark bugs which have yet to be sent upstream as "incomplete". [irrespective of patch] However, it was discussed and considered as a confusing status, now the recommended practice is to just leave the status as-is[or can be marked confirmed] and to open an upstream task in launchpad[ and report it upstream ;) ] [Preferably when asking a question it would be easier if the bug link in question was mentioned, would be easier to answer the question.

However , several mentors have been reporting back that their students have not responded. This was sadly expected ,as some of the applicants were from nearly 6 months ago and have probably lost interest in bugsquad/triaging. Mentors, In case your students havent responded for 2 weeks , try mailing them a reminder. If you've failed to receive a response ,we can prune them from the list after a month of no response. We are again getting new members applying for mentors. Since most of the slots for the mentors *seem* full, due to these inactive students, it is not possible to assign mentors for these new eager students. We need to keep the list with active members only , else we are in danger of loosing these new eager students too.

With an example like this the Ubuntu bug task should Triaged and the upstream task (when it is opened) set to In Progress. Unless of course the upstream task is a bug watch for a bug report in another bug tracker in which case it's status will be set automatically. -- Brian Murray Ubuntu Bug Master -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Part of my problem of course is that I'm trying to map these values to the bugzilla equivalents, but 'Incomplete' does not quite map onto 'NeedInfo' like part of me wants it to :) > When discussing issues of this nature it is important to keep in mind > the distinction between a bug and a bug task.

The situation I'm referring to is where upstream requires email list interaction, and we are asking the launchpad bug submitter to forward the patch. Do we then set it to 'Confirmed' until the submitter forwards to the appropriate list, and then set it to 'Triaged'? Or still just set it to 'Triaged' immediately? thanks, -serge From noreply at ubuntu.com Fri Jun 25 01:11:00 2010 From: noreply at ubuntu.com (=?utf-8?q?Ubuntu_Wiki_?=) Date: Fri, 25 Jun 2010 01:11:00 -0000 Subject: =?utf-8?q?=5BUbuntu_Wiki=5D_Update_of_=22Bugs/HowToTriage=22_by_zkriesse?= Message-ID: <20100625011100.18744.63796@jostaberry.canonical.com> Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Ubuntu Wiki" for change notification.

Message-ID: Hi, I was curious why I haven't seen anyone ask for kern.log, especially for kernel or graphics bugs. Is there sensitive information in there? Is the computer name too private? It seems much easier to ask for kern.log than dmesg, since: 1) If the system freezes and you have to reboot, dmesg and /var/log/dmesg aren't relevant anymore, so uploading kern.log guarantees you have the correct dmesg for the bug. 2) The timestamps make it very easy to pinpoint where the error should be and lessen the chance to misinterpret irrelevant messages as messages that are related to the bug.

Yes, this is possible with Launchpad but we want applicants to acknowledge that they have read the triaging guidelines. Maybe there is some other way we can get this done? Or alternatively is it really important that we have people read them before asking to join?

Requests to join are done on the bugSquad page [1], where there *is* a blurb with a pointer on what to do. My experience is that most requestors do not even read this blurb, much less email the ML. So we could: 1. make the blurb more visible (all CAPS?); 2. take out the need to email the ML; 3. adjust the welcome message to state "Please read...".

Just did it. Of course, it still needs some loving ;-) Direct result -- no longer requiring email to the ML to ask for it. I am also updating the wiki [1] to reflect this change.
