*** MrPingu has quit IRC00:01
lufI uploaded new obexd with async rtcom-eventlogger support for call history listing to http://merlin1991.at/~luf/pbap/00:15
lufI'll update git tomorrow and maybe later as I need new rtcom-eventlogger-async.00:16
luffreemangordon: I'll appreciate if you can take a look on building rtcom-eventlogger-async (it's strange as I get it from rtcom-eventlogger) :)00:17
lufNow I'm trying to contact lkslawek and I'll try to add MAP support to the obexd for N900.00:18

merlin1991luf: what's the advantage of the async rtcom-eventologger support?00:37
lufmerlin1991: it's like with eds. code for rtcom-eventlogger is in separate process00:38
lufmerlin1991: I don't measure but it's faster in vcard listing (not pullall but get 0.vcf, 1.vcf, 2.vcf ...) and I hope it'll be easier to use it in MAP support which I plan to port from meego code.00:39
merlin1991care to enligthen me what MAP is? :D00:39
*** bsdmaniak has quit IRC00:39
lufsupport for SMS (like phonebook or call history) ;)00:40
lufBTW aren't you destroy whole house with cat5 cable in hand/wall ? :D00:40
lufmerlin1991: ^^00:41
merlin1991yep that's me00:41
merlin1991but it's only my flat, not the whole house :D00:42
lufYeah but if the flat isn't under roof ... :D00:43
merlin1991I'm also adding polyphase wiring to the kitchen to have a proper electric cooker00:43
lufmerlin1991: please in some free time take a look at rtcom-eventlogger-async and if you'll agree please create new git project under community-ssu for it.00:44
merlin1991yeah I'm on the first floor, and there's 3 more floors above me, perfect conditions to wrek some havoc :P00:45
lufBe sure to have cat5e wire near you if the house fall down so you can ask for help :D00:46
merlin1991the house was built in 1884, since it survived two world wars I don't think I can do much damage to it :D00:49
lufYou're better than you think ;) And you have power of cat5 :D00:53
lufI have to go to bed. Good night. We have second gold medal :)00:54

JaffaHi, anyone seen https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12564 - andre__'s linked to an upstream patch for a resource leak in microb-engine13:13
povbotBug 12564: microb-engine: Daemon does not shut down properly when no connection and browser closed when connection dialog opens13:13
andre__I'm not too optimistic seeing the progress of my reports so far :/13:14
andre__(which is no criticism, just missing manpower, I guess)13:14
freemangordonhttp://gitorious.org/community-ssu/microb-engine/commit/73ead33cb1df986e923b00b1290798086f9eb70613:14
andre__Yay.13:15
andre__but why no comment in bugzilla?13:15
freemangordonas it is still on gitorious only ( and in cssu-thumb)13:15
andre__I see... still cannot hurt :)13:15
andre__thanks!13:15
freemangordonnothing released in -testing so far13:16
freemangordonnp :)13:17
JaffaStill, I agree with andre__ - comment in Bugzilla wouldn't hurt to show that the package is imported into CSSU gitorious and that the patch has been included13:19
freemangordonJaffa: while i agree it is good, it works a little bit different according to what was agreed in CSSU. https://garage.maemo.org/pm/task.php?func=detailtask&project_task_id=1982&group_id=2300&group_project_id=386413:25
freemangordonhave in mind there is no even internal build (besides thumb, but it's not official)13:26
*** _rd has quit IRC13:28
*** lizardo has joined #maemo-ssu13:38
Jaffafreemangordon: It was agreed that there'd not even be a *comment* on the bug report? Citation needed, because - frankly - that's bonkers.13:38
Jaffafreemangordon: If a bug looks like it's not moved, someone else might try and pick it up and end up duplicating work.13:38
freemangordonJaffa: well, it is hard to believe someone outside CSSU will start to fix bugs against CSSU. You probably missed it, but it was agreed that internal activities will be tracked through garage project.13:45
freemangordonthat was some 5-6 months ago, so no citation :)13:45
Jaffafreemangordon: Except how does someone outside CSSU get inside? They want to scratch an itch. Obviously doing so without coming to IRC would be crazy, and I'm not trying to make too big a deal of this specific example.13:46
freemangordonso far the comments on the bugtracker for closed bug has been written after a relese in -testing13:46
freemangordonJaffa: yes, exactly, they come to IRC (luf and zeq are very good examples)13:47
Jaffafreemangordon: If there's an "internal" task on Garage (although, given the apathy towards GForge in general, I'm a little surprised at going to it voluntarily ;-)) which is related to a bug, there should be a comment on the Bugzilla entry linking to the Garage item (and vice versa)13:47
freemangordon(though zeq is still not "officialy" in CSSU team)13:47
Jaffafreemangordon: It's not just about new joiners; it's also about visibility, tracking etc.13:48
freemangordonon garage there is ;)13:48
freemangordonalong with the commit13:48
Jaffafreemangordon: Indeed, so it's the reciprocal link which is missing13:48
freemangordonyes, but so far there is no such practice afaik13:49
Jaffafreemangordon: _Statuses_ should change as things are released; but not commenting on the "public facing" issue tracker until the code drops is a bad practice that closed shops like Nokia did. It's not best OSS practice.13:49
Jaffafreemangordon: Understood. I'm saying I think there should be, it's practically zero effort and avoids any confusion (e.g. andre__'s efforts to identify upstream security bugs or fixes actually is going somewhere)13:50
freemangordonJaffa, understood, it is just that there was no bug triage session since the commit. Usually it is merlin1991 who comments on the bugs when there is some progress13:51
freemangordonyou know, holiday time, etc13:51
freemangordonUsusally I am trying to keep away from commenting on public places, soft skills issues :)13:53
* freemangordon is afk for a while13:54
*** M13 has quit IRC14:11
*** jonwil has quit IRC14:17
Jaffafreemangordon: Heh, understood.14:28
Jaffafreemangordon: I'm sure you won't offend if you just paste a URL ;-) Not even the most impolite person I know could fsck that up14:28
DocScrutinizer05hehe14:30
DocScrutinizer05hi Jaffa btw14:32
DocScrutinizer05I'd love to hear your take on cssu kernel and rules aboutr QA to apply to the patches we want to include. I'm afraid my take on that isn't common sense, and I'm not arrogant enough to think my ideas should prevail14:34
freemangordonJaffa: will try to do it next time ;)14:36
*** _rd has joined #maemo-ssu14:37
DocScrutinizer05Jaffa: so far I suggested a "triage" of all the patches in PK, regarding a few criteria like "is it a module without impact to 'core' that can get blacklisted?" or "is it a commonly accepted upstream patch that scratches a severe itch and nobody can see why it would work differently on embedded/N900?"14:38
merlin1991andre__: we're not that bad, about 50% of your reported bugs are "FIXED" now :)14:43
andre__true. thanks  :)14:43
DocScrutinizer05Jaffa: alas nobody but me seems to consider proper review of all the patches a mandatory precondition, rather the degree of "nice to have" changes depending on whom you ask14:49
DocScrutinizer05Jaffa: ...while I don't feel comfortable with a cssu kernel (on my device) that may come with unknown number of severe potentially hw-frying bugs sneaking in with patches, of the grade of bq27200/I2C-locking-nuked desaster14:51
DocScrutinizer05Jaffa: so please guide me on what I shall think and try to support14:53

andre__current vte version allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service.15:53
andre__is that something worth to fix? that covers ssh, right?15:53
freemangordonandre__: does it make sense on a mobile device?15:58
andre__that's what I wonder, as a simple person that doesn't really use ssh or stuff :)15:59
andre__so somebody please tell me if I should file a ticket for you or not :P15:59
freemangordonBTW ssh is in extras, not CSSU material aiui16:00
DocScrutinizer05andre__: denial of service or privilege escalation?16:00
freemangordonopenssh even16:00
andre__http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2012-273816:00
DocScrutinizer05DOS is "harmless"16:00
andre__you can probably judge it way better than I can16:00
andre__I'm not very low-level16:00
andre__I just want a "file it" or "don't: :)16:01
DocScrutinizer05file it please16:01
andre__ok :)16:01
DocScrutinizer05we can triage later16:01
DocScrutinizer05you know, on maemo there's a zillion ways for remote authenticated users to cause DOS16:03
*** luf has quit IRC16:09
DocScrutinizer05ohwell, severity low16:09
DocScrutinizer05it's obviously a DOS only, available to authenticated users of vte16:10
DocScrutinizer05nice lil bug somebody can fix if bored16:10

andre__pango uses the freetype backend, right?16:12
DocScrutinizer05sorry, no clue16:13
andre__WTF? http://gitorious.org/community-ssu/pango/trees/master - "source tree" just includes a tarball package and a patches subdir? sigh16:15
DocScrutinizer05anyway, regarding CVE-2012-2738, we got a patch to vte already afaik (NK-enter fix), so adding a patch for this one doesn't hurt much16:15
*** _rd has quit IRC16:21
*** jonwil has joined #maemo-ssu16:35
merlin1991andre__: about the pango madness, that's what we grabbed from the official maemo sources16:45
merlin1991one day I'll get mad enough at it untar the tarball and rewrite debian/rules16:46
andre__:)16:46
