[Lubuntu-qa] Fw: Lubuntu and Google Code-In 2015
I think to make it easier for people to remain subscribed a link to sign up for lubuntu devel should make this team life easier. [1] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/Lubuntu-devel Begin forwarded message: Date: Tue, 1 Dec 2015 11:01:01 -0800 From: Walter Lapchynski <w...@ubuntu.com> To: Julien Lavergne <gi...@ubuntu.com>, "lubuntu-qa@lists.launchpad.net" <lubuntu-qa@lists.launchpad.net>, lubuntu-devel <lubuntu-de...@lists.ubuntu.com>, lubuntu user list <lubuntu-us...@lists.ubuntu.com> Subject: Lubuntu and Google Code-In 2015 You may have noticed that Ubuntu has been accepted as part of the [Google Code-In][1] this year. Naturally, all teams that are part of the larger Ubuntu project are invited to be a part of this endeavour and include tasks of their own. I was hesitant to sign up for this or encourage anyone to do so because I know we are a small team and limited in terms of time and resources. However, after talking to Nicholas Skaggs today, it's clear that what's needed is more of a liason for the team, especially given that the larger community is there to help where needed. So, I have signed up to be a mentor on behalf of Lubuntu. What I ask from all of you is a list of tasks that you would like to see accomplished. The criteria is listed in the aforementioned wiki link and examples are provided. Please reply back with your ideas. As long as I understand them, I'll get them listed and act as the effective mentor. If there are needs the mentee has that are beyond my skill set, I may get in touch and ask you questions and/or have you act as a co-mentor. Either way, my goal will be to protect your time while ensuring quality work gets done. I want to encourage you to think broadly. What marketing, artwork, videos, blog posts, articles, documentation, design, bug triage, tools, bugs, and features do we need worked on? Keep in mind work ends in January, so targeting the 16.04 release would be a good idea. What other questions do you have? Let me know and I'll make sure the FAQ gets amended. Meanwhile, send ideas! I look forward to seeing big strides in Lubuntu and the larger project this year! P.S. I include lubuntu-qa in this email but want to remind you all that I will be deprecating it in the near future. Please sign up for lubuntu-de...@lists.ubuntu.com if you haven't already.

This can lead to people with installed systems missing things that happen for people on fresh install. I think this reason played a part in why 14.04 orginally got released without nm-applet starting as people running it daily still had their old configuration files and did not notice the problem. I also think it would hard for upstream to do any tests of this sort as they don't really know downstream configs will be when making the the upstream code.

The majority of the packages in -proposed are still blocked by missing rebuilds or packages failing to build. The packages which already are migrated to the release pocket should be installable and not break any installation, however using the release pocket for development which touches any of the not yet migrated packages won't work. For this case you should have a development chroot with both the release and the proposed pocket enabled. We do *not* recommend updating your default environment to wily-proposed. If you want to help with testing one of the desktop environments, please do that in a VM or in a chroot. The Ubuntu desktop already seems to be upgradable. Updates of Kubuntu, Xubuntu and UbuntuStudio desktops are not yet tested. Feedback is welcome. To get this large transition finished, your help is welcome and needed. What you should *not* do: - Starting a major transition / update of some package or set of packages. - Merging or force syncing a package from Debian which had a library transition in Ubuntu but not in Debian. We'll see to these packages after the majority of the packages moved to wily. What you should do: - work on a transition mentioned at [1]. Pleases coordinate with release managers on IRC (#ubuntu-release). - Relevant FTBFS are tracked on [2]. Help with those is greatly appreciated to unblock library transitions. - With a lower priority, fixing build failures and dep-wait's mentioned at [2]. Check that page maybe not as often as your email, but do it on a regular basis. Unfortunately we had to start the GCC 5 changes with a rather long list of issues. Remember that this transition doesn't end at the main/universe border or at the set of packages included in our iso images, but involves the whole archive (like any other transition).

I can think of these cases where manual paritioning is really what you want. 1. Without manual paritioing you could not have an install with the / partition of a fast solid state drive and yet keep home with like lots of music files on a spinning hard drive Which while not as fast will offer more storage space for the money. 2. A user that has a dual boot of windows and another distro and wants to switch to lubuntu. Manual partition replacing the old distro with lubuntu will work here. 3. Manual partitioning lets you select the bootloader device in complicated cases with many disks and I find is more reliable instead of always trying to install bootloade to /dev/sda. I am sure there are more reasons but these are the first that come to my head. -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-qa Post to : lubuntu-qa@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-qa More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

I also ask for people to help in the testing, to validate the SRU. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Lubuntu Packages Team, which is subscribed to sylpheed in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1301274 Title: SSL validation problem (or sync Sylpheed from Debian sid) Status in “sylpheed” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “sylpheed” source package in Trusty: Fix Committed Bug description: SRU statement : [Impact] * Actual sylpheed has 2 major issues : - Security problem (SSL certificate validation) - Losing mail using POP3 The problem is that the security fix is separated into several commits, so it's not easy and secure to cheery pick commits, and maybe other commits that could be necessary and not labeled « SSL fix ». So, the easiest and more secure way to fix this is to take the whole upstream release. It will also fix the other major issue. Since 3.4.0 beta7 (include in trusty), the changelog to 3.4.1 is : Mac OS X support was improved. SSL certificate hostname is validated now (#167). The Japanese manual was modified so that IE correctly detect its character encoding. The rightmost column of folder view and summary view became easier to resize. Appropriate columns of folder view, summary view, etc. are auto-expanded by window resize when using GTK+ 2.14 or later. The initial setup dialog is now resizable. PGP encrypt-to-self feature was added. The display period of notification window became configurable. Win32: OpenSSL was updated to 0.9.8y. Win32: libpng was updated to 1.2.51. SSL wildcard certificate is also validated now (#167). The compile error with OpenSSL disabled was fixed. This release fixes an important bug that would lose mails when local mailbox was inaccessible on POP3 receiving. The others fixes are mininal when you compare to the 2 major fixes + the risk to miss something by cherry-picking commits. [Test Case] Detail of the security issue is described on the upstream bug tracker : http://sylpheed.sraoss.jp/redmine/issues/167 Since it's a security issue, it's not really easy to reproduce. Also, details about the lost of email are on upstream bug tracker http://sylpheed.sraoss.jp/redmine/issues/193 [Regression Potential] I can't see any regressions. The fixes are upstream since quite some time, and there is no new releases fixing again those issues (no I assume the actual fixes are good). Changelog : sylpheed (3.4.1-0ubuntu0.1) trusty-proposed; urgency=medium * New upstream release - Fix SSL validation (LP: #1301274). - Fix losing mails when local mailbox is inaccessible on POP3 receiving. -- Julien Lavergne gi...@ubuntu.com Fri, 16 May 2014 15:29:20 +0200 Debdiff is attached. Original report : Hello, Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Trusty Tahr currently only has the old Sylpheed 3.4 beta 7: http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/sylpheed whereas Debian sid has the new Sylpheed 3.4 stable: https://packages.debian.org/sid/sylpheed The new Sylpheed 3.4 stable also has a security fix that Sylpheed 3.4 beta 7 does not have, see: http://sylpheed.sraoss.jp/redmine/issues/167 So, please update the package in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Trusty Tahr, so that it will have the new Sylpheed 3.4 stable as well. The changelog of Sylpheed is available over there: http://sylpheed.sraoss.jp/en/news.html It would be much appreciated.

The upstream report doesn't make clear what own domain is. Am I testing that someone can't have an SSL certificate for my site that is valid and then can decrypt my emails in transit as I recieve them on that end.
