The alternates have been pulled. Nio / Walter / Julien. Do we release with over size for 14.04.3 and say it needs DVD / USB or no release at all? I'm minded to allow 14.04.3 out with the proviso it is solely dvd / usb based and people needing CD can use an earlier version and simply update.

It's too bad we haven't heard from Julien as my bet is that this is easily fixed. That being said, assuming we don't, it best that we do release rather than not release at all, so I vote for the DVD/USB only. On Thu, Aug 6, 2015 at 9:17 AM, Phill. Whiteside wrote: > The alternates have been pull

For anyone that wants to help track this down I'm working on it at #ubuntu-release. The last commit to our seed is what caused the problem: https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~lubuntu-dev/ubuntu-seeds/lubuntu.trusty/revision/296 Unfortunately, the problem is not obvious. On Thu, Aug 6, 2015 at 9:43 AM

[Lubuntu-qa] Lack of Lubuntu package testcases for wily

2015-08-06 Thread Simon Quigley
I recently started doing QA for Lubuntu, and I have noticed that not many people(none at this point in time for that matter) do the package QA testing. I took to the #lubuntu-devel IRC and wxl suggested that I send this email. There is a lack of individuals working on QA package testing for Lubunt

I marked it as ready, so we're good. Melodie also pointed out we could always suggest people do 800MB CDs. You may be able to overburn it but the amd64 is 27MB over so I'm thinking not. Going forward, we may want to look at removing extra languages from the [desktop seed][1]: # must have * Langu

If you are short in space, do not hesitate to remove langpack to reduce the size. It's the best short term option. They should be ordered by popcon on the seed. I'm still curious to know how a point release can suddenly be oversize ... Regards, Julien Lavergne Le 6 août 2015 7:51 PM, "Walter Lapc

Is there a list, or can you make a list with packages and sizes. It would make it possible to select in a more informed way which packages to remove to get within CD size. My native language is Swedish. I would not be happy if it is removed, but I realize that it is a small language, so I accept i

Well, I already marked it as ready since this is release day. I'm not sure we have enough time, honestly. Apparently the change from lts-utopic to lts-vivid must have added on a bunch of kernel updates. That's my best guess, at least. On Thu, Aug 6, 2015 at 10:57 AM, Julien Lavergne wrote: > If
