Re: [Tails-dev] patch to the known_issues list

Hi,

 Two questions:
 
 * What do you mean with since 1.3? Did it work with an
   earlier version?

 the issue appeared with Tails 1.3, it worked with older versions.

 * What do you mean with made with Tails installer? Can these
   computers boot Tails if it's installed in another way?

 they both could boot manually (linux) installed Tails. the user suspect that 
 the Bios
 of these laptop isn't happy with booting Tails from a secondary partition.

Now I'm a bit lost, so:

 * just to be clear: did these machines boot from Tails 1.3 made with
   Tails Installer?

 * what's the exact behaviour the user sees when Tails 1.3.1 fails
   to boot?

(I can't remember of any change, between 1.3 and 1.3.1, that would
impact booting from a device created by Tails Installer, but not
a device installed manually, so I suspect a user mistake somewhere
here, or some unclarity in the report -- I would dislike adding wrong
hardware that doesn't work information to our known issues page.)

 I'll make the changes and send another patch, thanks

Thanks :)

Cheers,

Re: [Tails-dev] Automated builds specification

Hi,

Sorry, lagging a bit one my emails.

  However, I think the reason I asked for this feature was to trigger
  rebuilds when the feature branch's APT suite has been updated. From
  reading the blueprint it only mentions Git, so I assume the watchdog
  won't look at the feature branch's APT suite state?

That's right, good catch. I tried to add in the blueprint that we want
builds triggered by uploads on APT suites.

However, one point it raises (added to the blueprint) is determining who
would be notified of this kind of build on failure.

Multiple options are maybe to consider:

 * Notify every core devs that has upload access on our reprepro.
 * Change our packaging habits and put our emails in the changelog.

 Short-term mitigation:
 
  1. if anyone really want to trigger an immediate rebuild, they can do
 it manually in the Jenkins interface (people who have upload
 rights to our APT repo also have powerful-enough access to Jenkins
 to trigger builds);
  2. the proposal says that all active branches are built daily, in
 addition to post-Git-push = worst case, the branch will be
 rebuilt within 24h;
  3. if in a hurry, or for whatever reason, you can still force
 a rebuild by pushing a dummy commit (ugly, but it works).
 
 Long-term: it seems quite clear to me that any upload to an APT suite
 should trigger a rebuild of the *directly* affected base branch.
 
 And also, more generally: at some point, whenever a base branch's
 current build is marked as outdated and needing to be rebuilt, be it
 because the base branch was updated in Git or via its APT suite, we'll
 want to trigger rebuilds of indirectly affected active branches as
 well (e.g. topic branches based on that base branch) somehow.
 Note that our resource estimates (and thus, our last round of hardware
 shopping) didn't take this cascade of triggered builds, so we simply
 can't implement that at the moment.
 
 BTW, I've read a bit about Zuul
 (http://ci.openstack.org/zuul/zuul.html) recently, and this made me
 aware of quite a few issues similar to the one you're raising here.
 Lots of food for thought, forwarded to bertagaz already.
 
 Now, let's put things back into perspective: what bertagaz and Jurre
 are working on so far is expending what we currently have to all
 active branches. Of course it doesn't cover everything that should
 ideally be done yet, simply because what we have so far itself
 doesn't. That's merely yet another step towards implementing the ideal
 CI system we need :)
 
 = bertagaz and Jurre, may you please capture this problem, and the
 long-term solution ideas we had, in the Future ideas section of
 the blueprint?

Done in scenarios 14 and 15, please review.

bert.

Re: [Tails-dev] GUI for encrypted volumes from LUKS/TrueCrypt container files

 aye, the disk utils code is were you traditionally look for

 whether creating a new encrypted luks image with udisks is possible
 today remains a mistery until it eventually gets supported by gnome
 disks.

I've found the UDisks documentation quite helpful (although sometimes
lacking clarity or details) when porting stuff to UDisks2 recently:

   http://udisks.freedesktop.org/docs/latest/

The Format method from org.freedesktop.UDisks2.Block allows creating
encrypted filesystems, and in theory it should work on loop devices
as well. I've not tried this myself, though.

 It worked just fine for me when we manually tested 1.3.1, so I suspect
 you may trying it the wrong way.
 
  * Did you wait for I2P to get enough connections to its network?
(Hint: wait 5-10 minutes)

I didn't! Testing time are not really the moments when you let your Tails
sit around. Waiting a bit more, it works.

Starting the i2p browser in a non en-US Tails session, I get this
warning message from torbutton asking if I want to fake my locale on the
web. I'm told that's because we removed the torbutton settings in the i2P
browser. That's not a blocker I believe, so I've merged the branch into
devel and stable.
