[Wikitech-l] Wikitext linting database updates temporarily turned off ( T240057 )

2019-12-06 Thread Subramanya Sastry
Hello everyone,

On Monday this week, we enabled Parsoid/PHP everywhere for all products
(Visual Editor, Mobile Content Service, Structured Discussions aka Flow,
Content Translation) but two (Wikitext Linter, Language Variant support).
Those last two were being supported by Parsoid/JS.

However, about 30 minutes back, we disabled database updates for wikitext
lints by turning off Parsoid/JS for the wikitext linter. You can read the
details in https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T240057 but we took the
decision in order to help mitigate cluster load issues (
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T239983 if you have access to the phab
task ).

This is a temporary measure and we expect to be able to enable wikitext
linter updates something in the coming week (optimistically) assuming the
mediawiki train can roll out this week.

Not to bury the lede or anything (late on a Friday evening in the US
timezones), but we have now effectively switched over from Parsoid/JS to
Parsoid/PHP on the Wikimedia cluster. Once we have moved over language
variant support from Parsoid/JS to Parsoid/PHP and wrapped up any other
loose ends and tied a neat bow around it all, we'll be publishing a blog
post about the Parsoid/PHP porting and rollout process.

Hi Sarah,

Did this happen? I get a "Video unavailable: This video is private" error
when trying to access the youtube link. Is the recorded available somewhere?

[Wikitech-l] CI Debian jobs now using Buster

2019-12-06 Thread Antoine Musso
Hello,

CI has jobs to build Debian packages, I have moved them from Jessie to
Buster instances.

Building the package is made in a build environment matching the target
distribution (using cowbuilder), but some operations are executed on the
host.  There might be side effect as a result of the upgrade.

For the utilities I can think of:

pbuilder 0.215 > 0.230.4
* which notably cause the building user to have a home directory set to
a non existent path /nonexistent

pristine-tar 1.33 > 1.46
* add support for delta version 3

git-buildpackage 0.6.22 > 0.9.14

If you see any oddity in the debian-glue* CI jobs, please fill a task in
Phabricator against #continuous-integration-infrastructure.


The migration task was:
