Add Ubuntu touch link

  
  Issues with Ubuntu [[Mirrors]] (the servers from which you download packages) should be reported to mirrors at ubuntu.com and ''not'' on Launchpad.
  
+ === Ubuntu Touch ===
+ 
+ Check the guidelines at: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Contribute#How_to_report_bugs
+ 
  == Package-specific instructions ==
  
  Some packages have changed names through versions of ubuntu and others need special care while reporting. This section lists these caveats.

There is one candidate I would like to suggest.

It is more about infrastructure than userspace, but those of you who 
help out sometimes in the "Answers" section know that there is sometimes 
heavy trouble caused from.

It is the package

ubuntu-release-upgrader

In my experience it is nothing worser than a system that fails on/after 
upgrade.

Regarding to

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader

we have only 99 bugs open and with this much less then on totem(>300 
when I remember correct), but they are harder to handle.

Mostly users give only a weak description, of the kind of "it do not 
upgrade".

So here would be log reading a task that comes to us, to identifiy what 
is the same(and I expect that there are some dublicates hidden) and what 
is not.

What do you think about?

Handling bugs of the ubuntu-release-upgrader

would be of some structural benefit that see wider than only on one 
release or only the actual daily problems.

A more stable release upgrader would decrease the fear of the people to 
upgrade to the latest Ubuntu version.

One consequence would be that we have less bugs on older version, which 
swamp launchpad.

For those bug reports you'll want to have the reporter gather the files
from /var/log/dist-upgrade/.  There is an apport package hook for
ubuntu-release-upgrader which will automatically gather the right files.

Also keep in mind that ubuntu-release-upgrader is new package in Quantal
so it is only correct package for upgrades from Precise to Quantal or
Quantal to Raring.  If you were to find a bug regarding an upgrade from
Oneiric to Precise the correct package is update-manager.  Additionally,
were you to go through all 99 open bugs it might be good to look at
update-manager bug reports for ones which should really be about
ubuntu-release-upgrader.

Let me know what day you want to do this and I'll be happy to help out.

Hi to all,

if I would do the organisation it would be someday in this month.

This is not Precise(:)) and a bit far away.

Sorry, but you can not see my desk(->you would understand than).

@Fabio

Well, have you some timeslots free for organisation Fabio?

I am offline now for some days.

greetings

melchiaros

Ok, I'm free starting from today, saturday and sunday, so I can try to
pick up something good.

@Brian, thanks I will surely ping you.

For this first work I propose to run only the ubuntu-release-upgrader
package and immediatly after update-manager, are you in accord?
(proposal are welcome).

Thanks
Fabio

Fabio,

Given these two items:
- Verify the bug is still not fixed
How do you quickly verify if the problem has been fixed?
What is the process to be used?

 -Request any needed info
What is the specific log(s) and information needed?

Best,

Hallo

This is one of the cases where it is not possible to reproduce quickly
the issue.
The first thing is to search for duplicates, or scrolling down
the ubuntu-release-upgrader list
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader> or
googling for: site:bugs.launchpad.net keywordsrelative and in the case
mark as duplicate, obviously if the bug is fixed in the yellow strip
will appear the green written `Fix released'
This particular package is used to upgrade from one release to another,
so you can understand that the `launchpad' is highly customized (extra
packages, proprietary drivers, personal settings, unsupported packages,
ecc. ecc.).
The only way that we have to reproduce the bug is to recreate the
scenario of the reporter, unless it is not closely hardware related (
video, audio, devices, ecc.), in a virtual machine and run the upgrade.
If the bug does not occour to you and it is reported from just one
person, then the probabilty to reproduce it again are near to 0.
In this case simply tell to the reporter that you are not able to
reproduce the issue, ask for more detailed steps to reproduce, subscribe
youself to the report and set the status of the bug to incomplete.
Apport automatically attach log files, analyzing them we can have hints
of what happens during the upgrade.
If needed, the relative logfiles can be found on /var/log/dist-upgrade.
This is an example of error in apt.log:

MarkUpgrade() called on a non-upgrable pkg: 'brasero'
ERROR:root:Upgrading 'brasero' failed
Log time: 2013-03-15 18:58:20.835223

This is a managed error:

Hi Fabio,

thanks for orgasnisation.

There is one point I want to discuss:

You say:
"
In this case simply tell to the reporter that you are not able to 
reproduce the issue, ask for more detailed steps to reproduce, subscribe 
youself to the report and set the status of the bug to incomplete.
"
This is a bit problematic. Other projects like ubiquity(the graphical 
installation system) or the kernel itself has stepped beside the 
procedure to reproduce the problem that occure.

They have good reasons for. Reproducing is often not possible. And a set 
to incomplete may blame the user, because s/he want to give further 
information, but is simply not able to because the informations are not 
available to the user him/herself.

As far as I have observed ubiquity has changed the policy of bughandling 
to set the priority of the report automatically to high when the log 
gives enough information.
The kernel bugs are set automatically to confiremd when they are reported.

I think it makes sense to do some similiar here.

We should set the status to confirmed if the logs provide enough 
information. Independed if the user gives additional informations to the 
problem.

(you click on upgrading and it do on every part your system -> the error 
may be caused by a configuration/software install month or years ago).

You have already provided the two cases I can get for quick also in mind.

The first is the error message:

"

MarkUpgrade() called on a non-upgrable pkg: 'brasero'
ERROR:root:Upgrading 'brasero' failed
Log time: 2013-03-15 18:58:20.835223
"

and the second is:


Investigating (0) linux-image-extra-3.5.0-18-generic [ amd64 ] < 
3.5.0-18.29 > ( kernel )
Broken linux-image-extra-3.5.0-18-generic:amd64 Depends on 
linux-image-3.5.0-18-generic [ amd64 ] < 3.5.0-18.29 > ( kernel )
   Considering linux-image-3.5.0-18-generic:amd64 10001 as a solution to 
linux-image-extra-3.5.0-18-generic:amd64 -1
   Removing linux-image-extra-3.5.0-18-generic:amd64 rather than change 
linux-image-3.5.0-18-generic:amd64
Done


which I have seen more in the form that investigation number is 
increasing while the upgrader is trying several upgrading routes for a 
specific package. like

investigating(0)
...
invertigating(1)
...
investigation(2)

and so on until the upgrader gives up.

 In the case that the log files aren't useful or not existing we need to
investigate in some way, so we have to interact with  the reporter to
help research some trace. The incomplete status makes the bug autoexpire
when no reply is done.

Yes, actually we have automated tools doing this works starting a first
triage step.

This things are depending on the degree of experience of the triager,
and I'm not in accord to set the status to confirmed till the bug is not
reproduced on two machine (unless very particular cases).

They are automatically set to High if there is a crash found in a bug
reported by apport.  This is done as an initial sorting method in the
bugs to differentiate them from ones like
http://launchpad.net/bugs/1155571.

> The kernel bugs are set automatically to confiremd when they are reported.

I believe this is only done if they are reported by apport and for
similar reason to ubiquity.

This is changing the definition of Confirmed for this specific package
which is not something I want to do.  The kernel team does this due to
the large volume of bug reports that they receive.

How can I mark a bug from

as handeled by me(just adding the name).

Is it just editing the wiki page?

Yep, just edit the page, put the green background color and your name
in the table. (I think it’d be good if this process was automated…)

o.K a thank you also to you.

There used to be some scripts (something in the line of bug-hugday)
which would do things automatically, but they broke some years ago and
actually it only consists of marking the wiki to keep a track of what
we are doing. 

We used to mark all of the green, but Fabio likes violet...

Subject: What we have learned so far on ubuntu-release upgrader hugday
Message-ID: <514C3607.1010506@aol.com>

We have done the hugday on ubuntu-release-upgrader yesterday and there 
are still tickets open, especially for the triaging step -> so you can 
still come up, e.g with recreation with apt-clone.tar.gz in a VM:

http://linuxundich.de/de/ubuntu/mit-apt-clone-die-installation-eines-rechners-auf-andere-ubertragen/

(Sorry, the website is written in german; please use e.g chromium 
translation popup on entering the website)

).

The question arises: What we have seen from the bunch of reports there 
so far?


I start this with one of my observations.

A good part of the problems are caused by ppa's that users have 
nincorporated in their system.

Especially the logs shown often to me xorg problems.

They have ppa's integrated that provides xorg components for resolving 
their graphical problems that they have with xorg from the main repositorie.


So far we could not say that they do nonsense to their system. 
Dysfunctional graphics are good reasons for incroporationg not official 
software.


The problem is that the ubuntu-release-upgrader is able to disable ppa's 
from source.list, but not able to handle the xorg move back to main with 
success.

This makes the upgrade process failing.

Is the user the problem?

Likely not.

I have seen a comment from Sampo555 that points to the policy to 
deactivate xorg ppa's before upgrading(thank you that you give the 
people a workarround Sampo).

Let us switch for the moment the perspective to that of a user(not 
anymore a newbie, but also not down to the shoulders in Ubuntu).

-> S/he could not see that policy from the front of the computer. The 
only thing what they see is that without ppa the graphic is a mess. I 
have read cases on Ubuntu question section where the graphical system 
was completely not useable.

It would affect a good part of the release upgrade problems (may be 
arround 20%-30%- just a guess on what I have seen in the logs) when it 
would be possible to teach ubuntu-release-upgrader to handle this.


What do you think about?

greetings

melchiaros

This is done by having the "Report a Bug" pages in Launchpad redirect to
the wiki page at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs.
Additionally, in most cases the ubuntu-release-upgrader should help you
file a bug report (using apport) or by telling you to use 'ubuntu-bug
ubuntu-release-upgrader'.

I'm looking into the hugday tool and from what I can tell so far there
is an authentication issue, for me at least, when trying to close bug
reports.  I'd welcome any help with this though.

Yes, if the bug report is clearly not a bug report and more of a support
question then converting the bug to a question is a valid action.  Do
you have some examples of those?

I believe that issue is specific to the ubuntu-release-upgrader package
and is my fault, sorry about that!

Sorry Alberto, my Spam-Filter is a bit overmotivated. I have just seen 
your mesasage in parts through Brians mail.

Your point on the gab between confirmed and triaged is quite correct. In 
principle everybody on launchpad can do what BugSquad people do with or 
without membership.

I would transform your proposal a bit. In moment the BugControl has a 
hugh access barrier. The people are forced to present them to 
someone(well properly also Brian) and ask for permission. This is o.K.  
But also the other way arround may be accessible. For sure there are 
people outside that fullfill(also a properly) the requirements for 
joining BugControl. You see them again and again and over long time. It 
is also a way to just invite them for a less formal join.  The 
difference is the invitation, and who is not lucky to be invited.

Your second point Alberto is going into the wide. Ubuntu v.s. Windows 
and Canonical monetary approaches.... This is to much for what I have 
whant here. But one point is absolutely correct. On this one single time 
event hughday, the activity is very low. Only four people is much to 
less. I just whant keep this as observation. The hughday-tools may be 
one cause. Also may be, we should have given a special workflow for 
handling such bugs(like apt-clone usage).

To the third point is to say.  It seems to be especially the long year 
linuxer that try to report without apport. I have some time looked into 
the launchpad profiles, when I hit such a report.

May be the explanation is that they have done so in past and just are 
willing to do in futhur:)

I think a redirect is quite o.K. It is not o.K to force someone to much, 
even if that makes it easier to us. The consequences for them a much 
more impressive. A missing raring tag will not show their report for the 
actual development. Or when we see this they have also extra work. Or .. 
you know.

To resume:

I think we may have now tree points:

-the ubuntu-release-upgrader behaviour on xorg
-the gab between confirmed and triaged
-the non working hughday-tools

@Brian

Fabio has also written to look at the tools in one of the hugday mails 
on the list(AFAIR). So there is the first on helping out.

I'm looking at the Confirmed bug reports now and remembered that bug
reports get automatically set to Confirmed if someone clicks the 'this
bug affects me' link.  So while somebody else has experienced the bug,
see http://launchpad.net/bugs/1091317, that doesn't make it a useful one
yet.

So the Confirmed ones should not always been intended for Bug Control
members.

Fellow Ubuntu Triagers!

This week's Bug Day target is *drum roll please* <<<update-manager>>>!

 * # 3 Incomplete Bugs Incomplete bugs need a status check
 * # 8 Confirmed Bugs Confirmed bugs need a review

And never seen it before in the world, '''Oh! Grannies !!!''' , 33 bugs that needs to be verified if they still alive...
 
<<<Update manager is an `higly infested' package, meaning that seems that everythings going wrong during an update
 is caused by this package, but obviously this is not the thruth. It is blamed from 10 to 15 reports at day,
 so every little help is really appreciated.>>>

Bookmark it, add it to your calendars, turn over those egg-timers!

Thanks for bringing these bugs up, let's have a look at them
individually.

This one really is a dpkg bug.

> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1110390

This one appears to be an issue with update-initramfs or grub as you can
see in DpkgTerminalLog.txt.  Looking at the description again they are
trying to update the kernel when running a Live CD.  You can tell it is
a live CD from the LiveMediaBuild and ProcKernelCmdLine parts.  There
have been issues with this process in the past and another bug may have
appeared.

> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1099848

I'm not sure what the issue here as the DpkgTerminalLog isn't rendering
properly but this is not a duplicate of 1090548 so I unmarked it as a
duplicate.

> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1090548

This appears to be a syntax error in the reporter's /etc/default/grub.
'/usr/sbin/grub-mkconfig: 26: /etc/default/grub: Syntax error: newline
unexpected'.

> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1089138

These are correctly marked as a duplicates.

> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1086403

This also looks like misconfigured grub files:

/etc/grub.d/41_custom: 8: /etc/grub.d/41_custom: EOF: not found

> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1068845

I don't believe this is an upgrader bug, unless the wrong kernel was
chosen.  I'll look into that one though.

I'm not certain what lead you to believe that these were the same bug
but not many of them are and most should be treated as individual bugs.
Having said that, this specific error message does appear in a few of
the bugs:

Failed to process /etc/kernel/postinst.d at
/var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-image-3.5.0-19-generic.postinst line 1010.

However, this is non-specific and you need to look the error messages
before that to determine what failed.

The release upgrader has code written to determine whether or not the
bug is with the upgrader or with a specific package and then files the
bug in the appropriate place.  It usually does the right thing.

Thanks again for bringing these up for discussion, I hope this
information is helpful.

Thanks for extensively discussing these reports, it is nice to have examples 
for beginning triagers!

I believe I've reviewed all the work done for the bug days regarding
update-manager and ubuntu-release-upgrader.  In some cases I added
additional information to the bug reports which may provide some
guidance on how to triage bug reports about these packages better.

Thanks for having a look at both of these packages, I found a few
interesting bugs to work on!

I dug into http://launchpad.net/bugs/801288 some more today and believe
I found and fixed one bug in the code, but there was one other thing
that was preventing it from working for me.  I had an outdated moin_id
set in my ~/.hugday_config file.  I manually changed it to the cookie
named MOIN_SESSION_80_ROOT for wiki.ubuntu.com in Firefox using a cookie
editor extension.  If you haven't used hugday before this should not be
an issue for you.

Please let me know if you have any issues with it.

What did you do while on the site to run into this?  As it stands, the
brainstorm site is running perfectly, on Windows, Ubuntu Linux, and a RHEL
system I have here, with zero XSS related things.
