BenCjamesh: hey, I just need some sane defaults for when the bugzilla bugs for linux get merged over to malone04:11
BenCjamesh: how much control do you have over the import rules?04:12
=== BenC [n=bcollins@debian/developer/bcollins] has joined #launchpad
jameshI could add some override specific to the "linux" package name04:13
jameshI could add some override specific to the "linux" package name04:13
BenCok04:13
BenCthe rules I need are simple04:13
BenCfor linux package04:13
jameshat the moment I don't think the "linux" bugs are being handled as well as they should, because there is no source or binary package called "linux"04:13
BenCif bug was opened before 12-01-2004, then the fix request should only be before linux-source-2.6.1204:14
BenCwait04:14
jameshso get filed against ubuntu with no source package name04:14
BenCif opened before 12-10-2004 AND in needsinfo, then linux-source-2.6.1204:14
BenCeverything else can be against linux-source-2.6.1504:14
jameshincluding resolved bugs?04:15
BenCresolved bugs, no04:15
BenCare you merging resolved bugs?04:15
jameshwe are importing all bugs in bugzilla under the "Ubuntu" product04:15
BenCcan you do a date range for when they were resolved?04:16
jameshI'm processing the duplicates table, so you should see the same "bug X is a duplicate of bug Y" relationships04:16
jameshnot really04:16
BenCanything resolved after 12-01-2004, making it resolved in linux-source-2.6.15, anything before just mark it linux-source-2.6.1204:16
jameshthat info is only in the bug activity table, which I have been ignoring04:16
BenCah04:17
BenCreally would like them searchable by some "linux kernel" meta thing04:17
BenCmalone is a different paradigm though, so that doesn't really fit04:18
jameshyeah.  Ideally you'd lump bugs for all linux-source-* packages as a single category04:19
jameshalthough categorising them by source package works quite well in most cases04:19
BenCok, just make all the resolved bugs against linux-source-2.6.15, since I can guarantee that it was fixed by then :)04:19
BenCcan you do the assignee aswell?04:20
jameshassignee?04:20
BenCI would like all bugs that are in assigned state to be assigned to me, and everything else (new, unconfirmed, etc) to be for the kernel team04:20
mptBenC, so would would "linux kernel" be? An aggregation of other products?04:21
jameshthe assignees for the imported bugs will be the same as what's currently in bugzilla04:21
BenCmpt: yeah, right now it would be linux-source-2.6.10, linux-source-2.6.12, and linux-source-2.6.1504:21
BenCjamesh: no way to override that?04:21
mptBenC, are they actual products, or just Ubuntu packages?04:21
mptthey look like product releases, to me04:21
BenCmpt: what's a product defined as?04:22
jameshBenC: if you update it in bugzilla, then it will be imported with the rest of the data04:22
jameshBenC: you can do "change multiple bugs at once" with bugzilla to update the assignee of all the bugs at once04:22
BenCjamesh: kernel team has a group entry on launchpad, so I don't know how that translates04:23
mptBenC, a product has a maintainer, has translations that are partly shared across series/releases, may be packaged in multiple distributions, etc04:23
BenChttps://launchpad.net/people/ubuntu-kernel-team04:23
jameshBenC: it'll be moved over as https://staging.ubuntu.com/people/kernel-bugs <- bugs assigned to that team will cause emails to be sent to the team address04:24
jameshwhich is a mailing list in this case04:24
jameshBenC: if you add the kernel-bugs address as the team mail address, then it will assign the bugs to ubuntu-kernel-team04:24
BenCI'm not following, what is kernel-bugs-team?04:26
jameshBenC: the import process creates people in Launchpad if they don't already exist04:26
jameshBenC: it checks for existance by matching the email addresses04:27
BenCso if I assign it to the email address that is listed for ubuntu-kernel-team, then it will get assigned there?04:27
jameshsince https://launchpad.net/people/ubuntu-kernel-team has no email address associated with it, the import process doesn't know that bugs currently assigned to kernel-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com should be assigned to ubuntu-kernel-team04:27
jameshubuntu-kernel-team doesn't seem to have an email address at the moment04:28
BenCI didn't think there were any assigned there, that's just a QA contact04:28
BenCOk, I added kernel-team@lists.ubuntu.com to ubuntu-kernel-team04:30
jameshwhat I'm saying is this: if you set ubuntu-kernel-team's email address to kernel-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com, then all bugs that previously had that email address as a QA contact or subscriber will have ubuntu-kernel-team as a subscriber when migrated04:30
BenChmm, maybe I should just use kernel-bugs04:30
BenCok04:30
jameshotherwise a separate kernel-bugs team will be created and it will be a subscriber04:30
jamesh(which might also be okay)04:31
mptjamesh, could I trouble you for the code for removesmartquotes()? :-)04:33

=== mdz rejoins some channels he inadvertently left due to mindless xchat keyboard shortcuts
jameshmpt: I'll do up a quick impl04:34
mptthanks jamesh 04:35
mdzthere's nothing quite like doing a few quick successive control+Ws to delete the previous few words in a message, and having three tabs vanish instead04:35
mdzBOOM04:35
mptmdz, that situation sucks, we need a better shortcut for closing tabs/windows that works everywhere04:36
mptrather than "Ctrl+W except where people might be expecting emacs combos"04:36
Burgundaviampt, the people who actually know emacs vs. the people is who know ctrl+w as close window is vanishingly small04:36
mdzthe irony is that ^W isn't even an emacs binding04:37
jameshctrl+w in emacs is actually closer to ctrl+x rather than ctrl+backspace04:37
mdzat least not as delete-word04:37
mptIronically the Mac, which introduced Command+W for closing windows in the first place, avoids the problem by having Ctrl+W for delete word and *Command*+W for close window04:38
mptand Windows usually doesn't have Ctrl+W in the first place, except in MSIE, Explorer post-IE4, and (iirc) Excel04:39

jblackThey're in two secure locations. My laptop and vostok.08:16
ddaaso I can diagnose thinks like "~lifeless/pqm/trunk is broken".08:16
jblackDo you need a fire-and-forget copy, or continual access? 08:17
ddaaIs there a reason why they are not sent to launchpad-error-reports like all the other cronjob logs?08:17
jblackit sounds like you're talking about logs agian08:17
ddaaI need continual access. So far is the only error reporting system we have.08:17

ddaajblack: you mean the mirror script produces _no_ output whatsoever?08:20
kikotuhl, better?08:20
=== jblack tries to figure out how to say this in clearer terms.
jblackThe stage-1 supermirror has no clue what happens to branches it tries to mirror. There's no logs. No emails, no xml-rpc. If it fails, it doesn't know08:21
ddaaI have trouble fathoming a piece of software that does not know it's failing...08:22
jblackFor a supermirror, failing to mirror a branch isn't a failure08:22
ddaaI mean, exceptions are about knowing something broke...08:22
jblackThats rather the point. If a branch fails to mirror, it doesn't necessarily mean that the supermirror is broken. it can mean the branch is broken.08:23
jblackit almost always means the branch is broken.08:23
LarstiQdon't you want to know that?08:23
jblackYes, we want to know.08:23
ddaaThen, how do you diagnose things like "I can checkout pqm truck from the source url, but not from the SM"?08:23
jblackRight now, you can't.08:23
LarstiQjblack: but you should, ideally?08:24
jblacklarsiq: of course.08:24
LarstiQok08:24
jblackWe're trying out a new stages development process.08:24
jblackwe broke this down into several parts. Different requiements exist at different parts.08:24
ddaajblack: I'd really like to have some sort, any sort, of monitoring facility.08:24
jblackTo complete a stage, you must implement that particular stage as quickly as possible. Other functionality (such as logging) is saved for later stages.08:25
LarstiQjblack: I'm just surprised08:25
jblackresult reporting is a stage-2 item.08:25
jblackThe implemented supermirror is at stage-108:25
LarstiQjblack: logging looks like fairly basic for debugging?08:25

jblackI've got work for it here.08:26
LarstiQof course, I'm not aware of the complexity involved08:26
daq4thtuhl: looks better now08:26
jblackI think you guys are disconnected about what's going on here. reporting and logging is important, and _will_ happen08:27
jblackHowever, the lowest hanging fruit was "make it work". Now, we can cope with "make it work right"08:27
ddaaLarstiQ: before christmast, we've spent like a month pinging one another to coordinate the deployement and final fixes. It's quite complex. Many moving parts and crossed responsibility boundaries.08:27
ddaajblack: well... I consider "tell me when it does not work" to be quite closely related to "make it work"...08:28
ddaabut I see how it makes sense.08:28
jblackThere's a _full_ set of test cases.08:28
jblackRight now though, the call to _mirror passes on exceptions.08:29
jblackThat just needs to change to catching known exceptions and printing a warning on stderr.08:29
jblackThat will cause cron to mail. 08:29
ddaaon a hourly basis, right?08:29
jblackright now its hourly, at 10 minutes past the hour08:30
ddaaone mail per hours with a complete report for all failures on that run fits my expectation for a crude solution.08:30
jblackOk.08:30
ddaaIt's gross. But it's better than nothing.08:30
=== jblack gets offended
ddaaNo, seriously.08:31
ddaaIt's exactly whan I meant when I said "something crude".08:31
jblackif you want to speed this along, give me a list of exceptions that mirror can throw that you're interested in me catching and reporting.08:31
ddaaRight now, all of them.08:31
LarstiQjblack: aye, I can see it making sense, and I am disconnected08:32
jblackIn order to work in the test framework, they need to be caught individually and complained about.08:32
jblackI'm _not_ going to make a promise to do all umpteen of them in a "soon" timeframe.08:32
=== ddaa invokes a bare except clause.
ddaaIt's going to be needed _anyway_.08:33
jblackWould it be enough to know that there _was_ an error? 08:33
jblackand I not report what? 08:33
ddaaYou can handle all the "bad url" and "bad service" by specific excepts, but sooner or later we're going to get corrupt data or bzr bugs.08:33
jblackWe already have all of those08:34
jblackToday.08:34
jblacksomewhere around 1-2 to  3/4 of the branches you're feeding me are broken in a varieety of ways.08:34
ddaaSo, I'd start by a bare except that says which branch it's about, and which url, and which branch in the SM filesystem, and then start building smarter things for expected failures.08:35
jblacknon existant, timeouts, ancient formats, missing revisions.. 08:35
jblackthats just the ones I've noticed.08:35
ddaajblack: users are feeding you branches, not I. Don't shoot the messenger.08:35
jblackI'm not shooting you.08:35
jblackI'm letting you know whats out there.08:36
jblackHere's a bit of a problem that I have with this part of the code.08:36
jblackI'm using TDD for this. Which means "no test, no new code"08:36
jblackI find it difficult to emulate the various problems that are seen in The Wild.08:36
ddaaYeah, you can go only this far.08:37

kikodoes anyone know why we got a number of duplicated messages from PQM the last month, some dating a couple of days apart? bradb, BjornT?09:35
popenorbertJust downloaded Ubuntu and wanted to make sure I could get in here ... Have a great day.09:35
kikothanks09:36
bradbkiko: Nope, that was a mystery to me too.09:36
kikobradb, okay, I found out what it is, see message from rob to launchpad list on december 20th09:37
kikobradb, can you tell me what's on your plate this week?09:40
bradbkiko: BugStatusChangesAsComments, improving the error handling on that form along the way. Probably fix some random bugs while waiting fot that review.09:41
kikothe name of that spec seems to suggest the wrong idea, doesn't it?09:42
bradbkiko: It's about bringing status changes into the bug comments, so it's not too far off.09:43

bradbHey mpt. Heads up: I'm editing bugtask-edit.pt, including making the layout not look stoopid.10:10

mptcarlos, would you be able to reply to Abel Cheung's message of December 21st?10:12
mpt(in rosetta-users@)10:12
mptit looks like it might be a bug in Rosetta10:14
carlosmpt, is jordi's job that kind of mails, I suppose he missed it... Anyway, we have a bug report about not listing the completely untranslated templates. I will reply now10:14
mptah!10:19
mptcarlos, no worries, I've found the bug so I can do it if you like10:19

mptbradb, about BugStatusChangesAsComments11:13
mptwill changes to the Keywords field be presented the same way as changes to, say, the Description field?11:14
=== lamont [n=lamont@mib.fc.hp.com] has joined #launchpad
mptoh, sorry, you're calling it Comment on Change11:15
=== mpt thought making it Keywords was discussed elsewhere
bradbmpt: SimpleBugKeywords is a different thing.11:15
mptI think comments on changes should be discouraged11:16
mpte.g. if you're just assigning a bug to someone, you shouldn't clutter the bug report with "assigning this to X"11:16
mptbecause the inline history already shows that11:17
=== carlos -> bed
carlossee you tomorrow11:17
mptnight carlos11:17
bradbIt's painful not being able to explain one's change, and has even scorned jbailey from *ever* filing bugs for a certain project again.11:17
mptwould that certain project start with L?11:17
bradbmpt: One would hope that you're not adding a change comment when assigning to bug to someone ;)11:18
bradbmpt: No.11:18
bradbs/to bug to/a bug to/11:18
mptbradb, well, it's a Bugzillaism -- Bugzilla has never shown inline history, and that was hacked around by *forcing* people to add a comment for some changes, so people ended up making comments like "." or "/"11:19
mptor "asdf"11:19
mptsorry, I'm rambling11:19
mptbut if it's Comment on Change, it shouldn't be a field that retains its contents, just like the "Add a comment" field in the main bug report page doesn't contain the last comment by default11:20
mptit should be empty11:20
bradbmpt: In my implementation, it is empty.11:20
mptok, cool11:20
bradbNo plan ever survives contact with the real world; that spec is already in need of updating to match what I've done.11:21
mptugh, "Add comment to this bug" is broken11:23
bradbmpt: My guess is that jamesh broke it.11:23

sabdflto you too, and thanks for the christmas card!11:44
sabdflthat functionality has been there since the middle of UBZ11:44
mptok, it was Celso who reported the bug11:45
mptI haven't paid much attention to the spec admin interface, so I didn't know11:45
mptbut, holy crap, that's a long menu11:45
mptHe reported the bug well before UBZ, too, so it was quite valid at the time :-)11:48

mdzmpt: lots12:02
mdz(there's a search function in debbugs?)12:02
mptmdz, ok, so ... Has the fact that debbugs has only Severity and not Priority ever bothered you?12:03
mdzonly?12:04
mpt(http://www.debian.org/Bugs/ ... doesn't allow searching for substrings, hence "mdz" returns 0 matches)12:04
