This is required for bug 938395.

Comment 1

[Armen [:armenzg]]

Before asking IT, I will do it once manually and see where we're at.

Comment 2

[Armen [:armenzg]]

To test on staging first.

I assume this is the package to install:

Comment 3

[Armen [:armenzg]]

What does it have higher priority? This bug or bug 971926?

Adding Benoit.

Comment 4

[Jeff Muizelaar [:jrmuizel]]

I'd say this bug. This bug is blocking known brokenness. Where as bug 971926 is about trying to prevent new brokenness from being introduced.

Comment 5

[NVD]

Nvidia has released GeForce 335.23 WHQL drivers, can this driver be installed instead?

It could be. Is there a particular reason to?

I will be trying this:

Only one job has failed. I'm re-triggering it.

Jeff, is there any specific log that you would like to inspect to verify that things are working as expected?

I'm happy to deploy as-is since it does not seem to affect any jobs (except the one I'm waiting on).

No, there's nothing I'm looking for.

[Armen [:armenzg]]

The re-trigger passed.

Comment 11

[Matt Woodrow (:mattwoodrow)]

Is there an ETA for this being deployed?

Comment 12

[Armen [:armenzg]]

Monday as per dep bug.

Comment 13

[Armen [:armenzg]]

Last night this was deployed and backed out.
Investigating.

Comment 14

[Armen [:armenzg]]

Stragglers in bug 1004813.

Comment 15

[[e-mail] (:bhearsum)]

For posterity, what ended up happening here? The latest comments suggest that we tried to upgrade and backed it out...yet this bug is RESOLVED FIXED.

Comment 16

[Armen [:armenzg]]

All the comments ended up on the dependent bug.

We found there was an issue on the deployment that would make the first jobs to burn right away.
On the second time and half we got it right.
