| Kinnison | hi jeffy | 11:00 |
| jbailey | Bah, my machine's inability to cope with only having 256 megs of ram is going to make me violent soon. | 11:01 |
| jbailey | g'm Mr. D1 | 11:01 |
| jbailey | ! | 11:01 |
| jbailey | Looking at: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/dapper/+source/glibc/+buildlog, I'm wondering if there's any way to tell at a glace that the package either succeeded or failed to build? | 11:02 |
| jbailey | The old ~lamont stuff used to have the pass/fail state encoded in the filename, which was conveninent. | 11:02 |
| jbailey | The second question is if it's possible to convince the librarian that it should hand over .gz files encoded in the way that makes Browsers simply happy to unpack them and display them as text/plain. | 11:03 |
| jbailey | The web server that had the ports archives had this setup correctly, people.ubuntu.com never did. | 11:04 |
| Kinnison | jbailey: the first one, not currently but it would not be hard to add | 11:04 |
| Kinnison | jbailey: the second one, is a librarian issue and I don't know how to fix it, spiv might | 11:04 |
| Kinnison | jbailey: so file the first as a bug on /products/soyuz | 11:04 |
| Kinnison | jbailey: and the second as a bug on /products/launchpad | 11:05 |
| jbailey | Lovely, thanks. | 11:05 |
| Kinnison | make the second one a high priority | 11:05 |
| Kinnison | and bug daf to triage it highly too | 11:05 |
| jbailey | Hmm. | 11:07 |
| jbailey | I should file a wishlist bug that searches should be done as exact match searches first, followed by FTI searches. | 11:07 |
| jbailey | Having the match I want halfway down the list always confuses me. | 11:07 |
| jbailey | Do the launchpad bug triagers also look through the support requests and such? | 11:08 |
| Kinnison | yeah, FTI *should* put the exact matches near the top anyway | 11:08 |
| Kinnison | jbailey: dunno what happens with support requests | 11:08 |
| jbailey | Some of these things seem lke they're not exactly bugs. | 11:08 |
| Kinnison | you should ask daf what he does with support requests | 11:09 |
| jbailey | Right, but near the top generally means that I'm having to actually parse the list. When I'm searching for soyuz, having it come second in the list of two just feels weird. | 11:09 |
| Kinnison | since daf appears to be our frontline triage nurse | 11:09 |
| === jbailey tickles daf | ||
| === Kinnison imagines daf in hospital scrubs | ||
| stub | jbailey, Kinnison: The Librarian simply spits out files with the mimetype that they were stored with. I imagine if firefox is not doing the right thing when you click on a librarian link, either the local handler for that mimetype is stuffed or we are storing the incorrect mime type. | 11:11 |
| jbailey | stub: gzip'd files are a bit of a special case. | 11:12 |
| daf | I haven't been paying much attention to support requests | 11:12 |
| jbailey | Technically, a gzip'd text file should be downloaded. The trick is that web browsers can cope with it as just being compressed data and handle the underlying mime type. | 11:12 |
| stub | Ok. We might need to improve the Librarian then to cope. I'm not sure about special handling for gzip stuff. | 11:12 |
| daf | I can start doing so if we're getting some | 11:12 |
| jbailey | stub: I'll look up what the hack is and get you the information. Do you want it on the launchpad list? | 11:13 |
| jbailey | daf: I think in many cases what i'm filing are really support requests clothed as bugs. | 11:13 |
| stub | jbailey: A bug report might be more appropriate, or the launchpad list. | 11:13 |
| LarstiQ | iirc, lifeless has commented on wrongly dealing with gzipped content before (either on #bzr or on the corresponding list) | 11:13 |
| daf | jbailey: I don't think we have the ability to turn bugs into support requests yet | 11:14 |
| jbailey | We've never really settled down and said what a bug is, and what a support request is. I tend to think of them as "bugs tell me something that specifically should be changed in code, a module, etc. because it's clearly wrong" | 11:14 |
| Kinnison | stub: Hmm, we call filenameToContentType in the build master | 11:14 |
| Kinnison | stub: if that were changed so that .txt.gz was given some appropriate mime type then things may work better | 11:14 |
| stub | I can't recall the details of how all that was put together :-) | 11:15 |
| stub | Might be simple or we might need to store the compression type seperately from the mime type | 11:15 |
| stub | I think matsubara might be involved with support requests and bug triage - might want to talk to kiko if you are sick of doing all the triage daf. | 11:17 |
| daf | stub: Steve and matsubara and I are all working on the bug stuff | 11:18 |
| stub | k | 11:18 |
| daf | he will be taking on a QA sort of role | 11:18 |
| jbailey | daf: Right. I haven't explored the support stuff in really big detail. | 11:19 |
| daf | me neither | 11:20 |
| daf | I think there's nobody actively working on it | 11:20 |
| Kinnison | Right, I think I know what to do | 11:21 |
| Kinnison | (for the librarian) | 11:21 |
| Kinnison | give me a sec to test it | 11:21 |
| jbailey | Ubugtu: lazy. | 11:23 |
| Kinnison | Okay, I've set the build master to use text/plain for the build logs | 11:24 |
| Kinnison | let's see if that allows the content-encoding to work | 11:25 |
| Kinnison | it'll need to be a fresh build log | 11:25 |
| jbailey | daf: Looking at https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+ticket/220, I see a "link existing bug" to it. | 11:25 |
| jbailey | Lemme try it. | 11:25 |
| Kinnison | http://librarian.launchpad.net/1557840/buildlog_ubuntu-dapper-powerpc.pornview_0.2pre1-5build1.txt.gz | 11:26 |
| Kinnison | bo! yakka! shar! | 11:26 |
| jbailey | daf: Right, so the many-to-one relationship actually works in the support tracker, but it would put more work on you in that you'd have to create a malone report separately for each thing that actually turned out to be a bug. | 11:26 |
| jbailey | Kinnison: Lovely! =) | 11:27 |
| Kinnison | jbailey: I'll fashion a query for stub to run on production to update all the old buildlogs | 11:27 |
| === koke [n=koke@ubuntu/member/koke] has joined #launchpad | ||
| jbailey | Kinnison: Thanks. Do you still want me to file the bug report? | 11:27 |
| Kinnison | jbailey: not for that one | 11:27 |
| === Kinnison has it under control :-) | ||
| jbailey | daf: (This is the type of things I'd imagine going into a support request. I don't actually know what was needed or what the fix is) | 11:28 |
| jbailey | So it feels like having that in malone wouldn't be optimal. | 11:28 |
| Kinnison | stub: will you be okay to run this query once I've done it? | 11:28 |
| stub | depends what it is. I havn't been following :) | 11:28 |
| daf | jbailey: hmm | 11:30 |
| jbailey | daf: Or the next one that I'm just about to cook up (searching for dups right now) | 11:31 |
| === Kinnison msgs stub the query | ||
| jbailey | daf: I want exact matches to show up first when searching. | 11:31 |
| daf | jbailey: do we know who, if anyone, handles support requests for Ubuntu? | 11:31 |
| jbailey | daf: I don't know the mechanics of what that means inside. I suspect it means an exact match search before the FTI, but it seems wrong for me to lead the discussion with a completely uneducated thought on how it might happen. | 11:31 |
| jbailey | (re: Ubuntu) generally community folks looks at the support requests. | 11:32 |
| daf | ok | 11:32 |
| Kinnison | stub: thanks dude | 11:32 |
| stub | Kinnison, jbailey: query run | 11:32 |
| Kinnison | jbailey: old build logs mimetypes updated | 11:32 |
| daf | jbailey: that sounds more like a bug to me -- it requires coding | 11:32 |
| jbailey | A couple folks on the distro team (Mostly Colin) will occasionally look through because the user experience is a major part of what they're doing. | 11:32 |
| lifeless | https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+builds?build_state=depwait | 11:32 |

| jbailey | daf: It certainly might turn into a bug. But I don't know that I didn't fail to click a magic button somewhere that says "prefer exact over full text", or whatnot. | 11:33 |
| daf | jbailey: well, in this case, I can tell you "it's a bug" :) | 11:33 |
| jbailey | daf: Yes, dear. =) | 11:33 |
| daf | jbailey: but in the general case, I see your point | 11:33 |
| jbailey | stub, Kinnison: Thanks! | 11:34 |
| daf | I think better support for converting tickets <-> bugs would be very welcome | 11:34 |
| jbailey | Right. I wonder if it's possible to write/spec that without the experience of having done a few dozen by hand, though. =/ | 11:35 |
| === Kinnison verifies everything he's monkeyed into the live code is committed to the main branch for ftpmaster | ||

| jamesh | "select count(*) from ... limit 1" is as expensive as "select count(*) from ..." | 12:23 |
| jamesh | on the other hand, "select id from ... limit 1" does improve things | 12:24 |

| siretart | is that email actually read? or shall I better send my question to some other place? | 12:25 |
| siretart | it is basically about uploading to breezy-updates. it seems that I'm no longer allowed to upload there. is this intentional? | 12:26 |

| Kamping_Kaiser | salgado: it's about 8 lines ( i just hammered it out then) | 01:58 |
| Seveas | Kamping_Kaiser, please have a look at the GnuPrivacyGuardHowto on the Ubuntu wiki too | 01:58 |

| Kamping_Kaiser | looking' | 01:59 |

| cyberix | daf: Almost anything, but this should then be reviewed and confirmed by registered users | 02:55 |
| fabbione | cyberix: wouldn't that add a lot of overhead for registered users? | 02:56 |
| cyberix | fabbione: Usually there are more of nonevildoers than evildoers :-) | 02:56 |
| fabbione | time and resources that could be spend doing something more useful than reviewing changes from anon users that are too lazy to register once | 02:56 |
| === cprov [n=cprov@200-171-140-32.dsl.telesp.net.br] has joined #launchpad | ||
| fabbione | the balance can't be measured. | 02:57 |
| cyberix | fabbione: It is not that they are too lazy, but that they don't want to register an account e.g. to translate one string. | 02:57 |
| cyberix | fabbione: Because the overhead is then to register | 02:57 |
| daf | translations are a bit of a special case | 02:57 |
| cyberix | fabbione: And it is not the time that it takes to register | 02:57 |
| cyberix | It is simply that people are drowning in accounts these days | 02:58 |
| cyberix | Many want to minimize registering new ones. | 02:58 |
| daf | since we're planing on adding review functionality to Rosetta, it may one day become possible to contribute suggestions anonymously | 02:58 |
| daf | however, we can't do it in the general case easily | 02:58 |
| daf | OpenID may help with account management | 02:59 |
| cyberix | Wikipedia uses IP-addresses for nonregistered users | 02:59 |
| daf | yes, but we're not Wikipedia | 03:00 |
| cyberix | No | 03:00 |
| daf | Wikipedia consists of a set of pages | 03:00 |
| daf | Launchpad is composed of many different kinds of resources | 03:00 |
| daf | and supporting anonymous edits would require modifications to all of them | 03:00 |
| daf | I think, on the whole, we'd have to spend time thinking about the implications of such changes | 03:02 |
| cyberix | Please do, that was what I was hoping | 03:02 |
| cyberix | No more, no less | 03:02 |
| daf | if you have time, perhaps you would like to write about your idea on the wiki | 03:03 |
| daf | so that it doesn't get forgotten | 03:03 |
| SteveA | i think that we will allow people to suggest translations without having logged in | 03:04 |
| SteveA | that makes a lot of sense, and there's already structures in rosetta for reviewing contributions from outside of a core translation team | 03:04 |
| cyberix | Is there not already a system to send bugs in without registering anywhere? | 03:05 |
| daf | not yet, I think | 03:05 |
| cyberix | Such software tool used in Debian? | 03:05 |
| daf | I think there was some discussion about it recently | 03:05 |
| cyberix | report-bug | 03:05 |
| cyberix | or something like that | 03:05 |
| daf | reportbug, yes | 03:06 |
| daf | I think right now it doesn't support Malone | 03:06 |
| cyberix | Ok | 03:06 |
| daf | because of the GPG requirement | 03:06 |
| daf | I think we're planning to remove that requirement soon | 03:06 |
| cyberix | Well I'm already using my freetime with participating to a million projects, but I'll try to write something about this to the Wiki. | 03:06 |
| daf | thanks! | 03:07 |
| SteveA | it is quite common for a bugreport to need further details from the original reporter before the report is a good description of what is wrong | 03:07 |
| daf | if you like, you could just paste this conversation into a wiki page | 03:07 |
| SteveA | i would be concerned about anonymous bug reporting | 03:07 |
| SteveA | that it is more difficult to have a back-and-forwards discussion of the nature of the problem with the reporter | 03:07 |
| daf | I suspect that the gain in number of bug reports outweighs the increase in useless bug reports | 03:08 |
| SteveA | hmm | 03:08 |
| SteveA | with the same number of people dealing with the bug reports... | 03:08 |
| SteveA | that doesn't sound like a scalable proposition to me | 03:09 |
| SteveA | there are certain kinds of bug reports this can work with | 03:09 |
| daf | oh, I've confused myself | 03:09 |
| SteveA | like a system crash report | 03:09 |
| SteveA | where you have automatically collected all of the relevant information | 03:09 |
| daf | we're not planning to make bug reports anonymous | 03:09 |
| daf | only removing the requirement of having a GPG signature | 03:10 |
| daf | for filing bugs | 03:10 |
| daf | I'm not sure if one will still be required to have an account | 03:10 |
| SteveA | right. you'll still need to have an email address that launchpad knows about | 03:10 |
| daf | I'm using Debian as my comparison point | 03:10 |
| daf | Debbugs has no registration system | 03:11 |
| daf | bugs are submitted by email | 03:11 |
| daf | it's possible that someone will submit from a dud address | 03:11 |
| daf | but in practice it doesn't happen often | 03:11 |
| SteveA | in the future, we may be able to have an entirely email-based account registration process | 03:12 |
| SteveA | in addition to the web-and-email system we have now | 03:12 |
| daf | so we can do the equivalent of redirecting to /+login? :) | 03:12 |

| SteveA | i mail in from an unknown address | 03:12 |

| SteveA | or something like that | 03:13 |
| SteveA | anyway, future feature | 03:13 |
| SteveA | hello mister elmo | 03:13 |
| daf | at any rate, I think supporting bug-buddy and/or reportbug in Malone would be very good | 03:13 |
| daf | or an Ubuntu-specific tool | 03:14 |
| daf | it would make it much easier for users to report bugs | 03:14 |
| SteveA | there is another issue here | 03:15 |
| SteveA | how many bugs are really support issues? | 03:15 |
| daf | I can imagine that my father wouldn't want to register with Launchpad to tell us that his web browser crashed | 03:15 |
| daf | that's a good point | 03:15 |
| SteveA | crash reports are separate | 03:15 |
| SteveA | because your father probably won't be runningn gdb or anything to help debug it | 03:15 |
| daf | I can imagine that my father wouldn't want to register with Launchpad to tell us that his web browser is showing everything in blue | 03:15 |
| SteveA | that'll be a support request | 03:15 |
| SteveA | there are so many systems involved that if my mother reported such a bug to me | 03:16 |
| SteveA | (over the phone, on a sunday afternoon...) | 03:16 |
| daf | you're suggesting that everything should be a support request by default, and that support requests should be turned into bugs as appropriate? | 03:16 |
| SteveA | then i wouldn't know whether it was a faulty monitor | 03:16 |
| daf | (by support volunteers/personnel) | 03:16 |
| SteveA | poorly set-up monitor | 03:16 |
| SteveA | my mother is wearing blue sunglasses | 03:17 |
| elmo | SteveA: hia | 03:17 |
| SteveA | my brother reconfigured the default stylesheet settings | 03:17 |
| SteveA | or whatever | 03:17 |
| SteveA | so, it isn't clearly a bug with ubuntu or with a particular application or sourcepackage | 03:17 |
| daf | Use case: Steve's mother is wearing blue sunglasses. | 03:17 |
| daf | right | 03:17 |
| SteveA | you know that "my monitor keeps flickering" complaint, accompanied by crunching of potato crisps | 03:18 |
| SteveA | so, if we make it very easy for end users of ubuntu to file bugs, they should be support requests initially | 03:18 |
| daf | agreed | 03:18 |
| SteveA | and, those who know how to diagnose a problem can get a more advanced direct bug-filing page | 03:19 |
| daf | should we require them to register to file support requests? | 03:19 |
| SteveA | we need to be able to have a dialogue | 03:19 |
| SteveA | so, in some sense, yes | 03:19 |
| daf | more specifically: should we require them to register, or just ask them for their email address? | 03:19 |
| SteveA | the challenge is making that process as straightforward as possible | 03:19 |
| SteveA | if you ask someone for their email address, they may type it in wrongly | 03:20 |
| SteveA | so, you'd want an automated reply | 03:20 |
| SteveA | that they in turn reply to | 03:20 |
| SteveA | oh, wait... that's our email address confirming system in launchpad | 03:20 |
| SteveA | so, we can improve the usability of that system | 03:20 |
| SteveA | but i think we still need it | 03:20 |
| daf | ok | 03:21 |
| daf | at any rate, a GNOME tool for filing support requests in Launchpad would be marvellous | 03:21 |
| SteveA | yep | 03:21 |
| SteveA | daf, matsubara: ping | 03:22 |
| matsubara | SteveA: pong | 03:23 |
| daf | pong | 03:23 |
| SteveA | so, what about bug triage | 03:23 |
| SteveA | did you two have a discussion about what we need to do with launchpad bugs? | 03:24 |
| daf | yes | 03:24 |
| daf | we looked at the bug triage page I put on the wiki | 03:24 |
| daf | matsubara added a question to it | 03:25 |
| SteveA | what's the URL? | 03:25 |
| matsubara | SteveA: I've been triaging, following the guidelines described on the wiki | 03:25 |
| SteveA | matsubara: how's it been going? | 03:25 |
| daf | https://wiki.launchpad.canonical.com/LaunchpadBugTriage | 03:25 |
| SteveA | daf: "we don't agree that this bug describes a problem worth considering". maybe rephrase that to something like "we don't think this is an issue for launchpad." | 03:27 |
| SteveA | i don't have a very good suggestion on how to phrase this | 03:27 |
| matsubara | SteveA: lots of bugs are users requests, is there any problem to change it to wishlist severity without changing the confirmed/unconfirmed status? | 03:27 |
| SteveA | that's an interesting question | 03:28 |
| daf | hmm, wishlist bugs are a bit of a special case, I think | 03:28 |
| SteveA | i think it is okay to have a mixture of "morally confirmed" and "morally unconfirmed" wishlist bugs | 03:29 |
| SteveA | because a wishlist bug is something we'll convert into a specification if we want to continue with it | 03:29 |
| SteveA | or at least, notionally convert into a spec. | 03:29 |
| daf | the difference being that a confirmed wishlist bug is one we've said we're planning to implement? | 03:30 |
| SteveA | no | 03:30 |
| SteveA | milestones are for saying about whether we're planning to implement something | 03:30 |
| SteveA | and i think it's okay to leave a bug with no milestone, and as a wishlist item | 03:30 |
| SteveA | in that sense, wishlist is almost like a milestone | 03:30 |
| daf | true | 03:31 |
| SteveA | because when we choose to do a wishlist bug in say 1.2, then | 03:31 |
| SteveA | we'll change it from wishlist to something else, in the context of 1.2 | 03:31 |
| bradb | jamesh: Is there a UI for bugwatch searching, other than URL hacking? | 03:32 |
| SteveA | matsubara: does that answer your question fully? | 03:33 |
| matsubara | SteveA: and what about pasting the traceback on the bug description? | 03:34 |
| matsubara | SteveA: yep | 03:34 |
| SteveA | better to give an OOPS code | 03:34 |
| SteveA | and we'll add special logic to bug display to make OOPS codes into links, when you're a launchpad developer | 03:34 |
| daf | oooh | 03:35 |
| SteveA | this needs an addition to DPoT | 03:35 |
| matsubara | that would rock! | 03:35 |
| SteveA | and a config file entry to give the root of OOPSes | 03:35 |
| daf | file a bug | 03:35 |
| daf | (shall I?) | 03:36 |
| SteveA | please do | 03:36 |
| matsubara | SteveA: what is DPoT? | 03:37 |
| SteveA | matsubara: DisplayingParagraphsOfText | 03:37 |
| SteveA | the spec that describes how we display and auto-linkify text in bug reports | 03:38 |
| SteveA | and in certain other place | 03:38 |
| SteveA | s | 03:38 |

| LarstiQ | ddaa: presuming you're responsible for 'Nearby' on +branches, will it show branches that merge too? | 04:14 |
| ddaa | mh | 04:15 |
| ddaa | that would be nice, but there are some implications | 04:16 |
| ddaa | namely you need to define the branch base so the merges from the parent branches do not introduce noise | 04:16 |
| daf | spiv, jamesh: did either of you see my mail about select results? | 04:16 |
| ddaa | LarstiQ: likely, that would be something with a heuristic default based on commiter's name and maybe some way to control it more finely if it's not good enough | 04:17 |
| ddaa | LarstiQ: I suggest you file wishlist bug about that. That's the sort of stuff we definitely want to support, but I do not see it happening in the next couple of months. | 04:18 |
| === LarstiQ nods | ||
| ddaa | First we'd need to actually get all the related uses cases and design something that does not suck. | 04:18 |

| ddaa | LarstiQ: mpt invented the "Nearby" section, and apparently wants to make it a recurrent feature of Launchpad. I think that's great. | 04:19 |
| daf | BjornT, bradb: can you answer sebest_'s question? | 04:20 |
| ddaa | at the moment all my energy is directed at the bzr transition. | 04:20 |
| LarstiQ | ddaa: it could be very nice, kinda like how wikipedia makes me squander hours following links | 04:20 |
| bradb | sebest_: No, don't worry about changing the status of dups. In the future, we'll make them automatically display as status "Duplicate". | 04:20 |
| ddaa | LarstiQ: I guess you were the kind of kid that used to read dictionnaries :) | 04:20 |
| LarstiQ | ddaa: hah, how did you know? ;) | 04:21 |
| daf | bradb: thanks -- is this possibly a FAQ candidate? | 04:21 |
| sebest_ | Bradb: ok, because first i was looking for "duplicate" in the status drop down menu | 04:21 |
| ddaa | LarstiQ: that's an insight ;) | 04:21 |
| LarstiQ | ddaa: is there another bzr transition, or is it still going on? | 04:21 |
| bradb | daf: Probably not. I haven't heard it asked that often. | 04:21 |
| ddaa | LarstiQ: still going on, got stalled, trying to get it back on track | 04:21 |
| daf | bradb: ok | 04:22 |
| sebest_ | bradb: i asked seb128, and he wasn't sure either about what to do | 04:22 |
| LarstiQ | ddaa: anything we can do to make it easier on you? | 04:22 |
| ddaa | LarstiQ: remove need to sleep, extend duration of days to 48 hours, and provide telepathic links with lifeless, SteveA, jblack and jamesh. | 04:22 |

| sebest_ | bradb, and will lanuchpad handle software version? | 04:25 |
| bradb | sebest_: Not likely in the next few months, but in the next six months, perhaps (hopefully?) | 04:26 |
| bradb | Though it is oft requested. | 04:26 |
| sebest_ | bradb it would allow closing bugs semi automatically | 04:26 |
| sebest_ | eg if i maintain a package upstream, and say the bug fix is available in version 1.2 (while ubuntu is shipping 1.1), the bug would be automatically closed when ubuntu ship 1.2 | 04:27 |
| bradb | sebest_: Interesting idea. Does closing via the Changelog apply in that case? | 04:29 |
| Kinnison | daf: aye | 04:30 |
| sebest_ | bradb: yes, i think it would help us clearing bugs that are no more revelant. | 04:31 |
| sebest_ | linking package changelog and launchpad may be an interesting idea, to ease bug triaging | 04:31 |
| sivang | sebest_: isn't that how debian bts works? | 04:32 |
| sebest_ | sivang: i don't know | 04:33 |
| sebest_ | the idea is also to automatically know if the bug is revelant for a particular ubuntu release | 04:34 |
| sebest_ | for this we only need to know the package version number that closed the bug | 04:35 |

| sebest_ | this bug is marked fixed, but the fix is only available in dapper | 04:36 |
| sebest_ | and the user that may have the bug, may be using breezy (so for him, no solution is available, maybe) | 04:37 |
| daf | yes, I've heard people complain that it's difficult to know which version of a package a bug was fixed in | 04:37 |
| sebest_ | daf: yes | 04:38 |
| daf | I think they've been spoiled by debbugs' shiny version tracking stuff | 04:38 |
| bradb | sebest_: I suggested not long ago having metadata on the "Fixed" status, so that you could say "Fixed" -> in version $foo (instead of the "Fix Committed"/"Fix Released" thing.) Does that sound like the right idea? | 04:39 |
| sebest_ | bradb: imo, yes | 04:40 |
| sebest_ | bradb: it seems that the "milestone" thing could be used for this purpose | 04:40 |
| === cprov [n=cprov@200-171-140-32.dsl.telesp.net.br] has joined #launchpad | ||
| bradb | milestones are distinct from versions. | 04:40 |
| sebest_ | eg if the bug is not critical: breezy -> won't fix , dapper -> fixed | 04:41 |
| daf | Launchpad knows everything it needs to know to do this properly | 04:41 |
| bradb | Milestones are a bullseye, versions are a specific release of a bundle of code. | 04:41 |
| sebest_ | bradb: you are right | 04:41 |
| daf | which version the bug is fixed in | 04:41 |

| sebest_ | daf: yes, and upon package availability in the repository, the bug could be closed | 04:42 |
| === beyond-rango is now known as beyond | ||
| daf | of course, most bugs filed for breezy after the breezy release will never be fixed in breezy | 04:42 |
| daf | such bugs should be marked Rejected | 04:43 |
| sebest_ | or a reminder mail could be send to the person related to this specific bug | 04:43 |
| LarstiQ | daf: not moved to dapper? | 04:43 |
| sebest_ | daf: except critical bugs that will be fixed | 04:43 |
| daf | LarstiQ: good point | 04:43 |
| sebest_ | LarstiQ, in fact that the main issue, we have to review each bug to see if they are still revelant in dapper | 04:44 |
| daf | LarstiQ: but if a bug has a task for both breezy and dapper, the breezy one is not going to get fixed | 04:44 |
| sebest_ | if we could say the bug is fixed in upstrem version x.y.z | 04:44 |
| LarstiQ | daf: agreed | 04:44 |
| Kinnison | I wonder when Dino Solon is gonna stop reporting the same bug over and over | 04:44 |
| sebest_ | we would know as you as version x.y.z hits the dapper repository that we can close this bug | 04:44 |
| LarstiQ | Kinnison: 'the number of bugs is increasing'? | 04:45 |
| Kinnison | LarstiQ: not entirely sure yet | 04:45 |
| Kinnison | daf: Do we auto-file bugs for OOPSen? | 04:45 |
| daf | Kinnison: no | 04:45 |
| LarstiQ | sebest_: it sounds good, but it moves the burden to getting information from upstream about fixes? | 04:46 |
| Kinnison | daf: Yeesh | 04:46 |
| daf | or we'd have 3,500 new bugs every day | 04:46 |

| daf | yeah | 04:46 |
| SteveA | Kinnison: we get a weekly report, and then the analysis of that leads to bugs being filed. | 04:46 |
| Kinnison | we need the equiv of gFuckheads for malone | 04:46 |
| daf | Kinnison: I think he thinks he's being helpful | 04:46 |
| sebest_ | LarstiQ, we can check in upstream changelog , or in upstream bugtracker if the bug is closed or not | 04:46 |

| SteveA | as a fascist manager type, i particularly like you to use the lists so i can see what's going on | 05:26 |
| iwj | Kinnison said I should ask this here: | 05:27 |
| iwj | What Malone status should I give a bug when I want to get it off our todo list because I think the issue should be handled upstream ? Bugzilla had NOTFORUS or whatever it was called. | 05:27 |
| SteveA | well | 05:27 |
| SteveA | a bug in malone has multiple statuses | 05:27 |
| SteveA | and is present in multiple contexts | 05:27 |
| LarstiQ | close it downstream, leave open upstream? | 05:27 |
| bradb | iwj: There isn't one: bug 6572 | 05:27 |
| Ubugtu | malone bug 6572 in malone "In distribution bug searches, it should be possible to filter out bugs with upstream tasks" [Normal,Confirmed] http://launchpad.net/bugs/6572 | 05:27 |
| SteveA | so, you can file the bug on the upstream distro or product | 05:28 |
| SteveA | maybe add a bugwatch, if it is an upstream bug we can watch | 05:28 |
| iwj | But I don't want to file an upstream bug. I want the original submitter to do the work of interacting with upstream. | 05:28 |
| iwj | For example, I don't want to myself search the upstream bug system to see if the bug is already reported (which in this particular case seems quite likely). | 05:29 |
| SteveA | sounds like "rejected" to me, then | 05:29 |
| bradb | iwj: Maybe this could be a use case for keywords? | 05:29 |
| SteveA | and, "rejected" is being renamed in malone i think | 05:29 |
| SteveA | to "not for us" or something like that | 05:29 |
| bradb | "Rejected" is always a slap in the face, so renaming it would be nice. | 05:30 |
| iwj | Sometimes `rejected' means `this isn't a bug' and sometimes it means `this isn't something I'm going to work on'. | 05:30 |
| SteveA | because the bug could be fixed in some other context | 05:30 |
| SteveA | "this isn't a bug" can also depend on context and scope | 05:30 |
| ogra | but please not to "not for us" these are different statuses | 05:30 |
| daf | salgado: ok, posted it to the list -- perhaps you can take a look for me | 05:31 |
| iwj | And the fairly mild slap in the face seems appropriate sometimes, depending on what the original report was. Criticism can be part of education. Obviously you don't just set the bug to rejected; you explain what the problem is, too. | 05:31 |
| salgado | daf, sure, I'll take a look in a few minutes | 05:31 |
| SteveA | iwj: i'd like you to raise the issue of the kind of "it is upstream's problem" workflow you need on the launchpad-users list | 05:31 |
| iwj | OK. | 05:31 |

| Kinnison | kiko_: good, and yes | 05:34 |
| Kinnison | kiko_: of course, I was half asleep for the entire thing | 05:34 |
| SteveA | kiko_: iwj just had an interesting question about how to deal with "not for us" kind of bugs in malone. he'll be mailing launchpad-users about it, as it's a larger discussion than we can have randomly on irc. | 05:34 |

| kiko_ | SteveA, do you know if we have a production roll out scheduled? | 05:37 |
| Kinnison | We have a rollout scheduled for 0930 UTC tomorrow | 05:37 |
| daf | kiko_: it's because I'm used to push-on-commit with baz | 05:37 |
| Kinnison | daf: I have push as part of my pqm merge script | 05:38 |
| kiko_ | daf, well, alias bzr-submit='bzr push; bzr-submit $*' ? | 05:38 |
| SteveA | kiko_: can't remember. daf, do you have the summary for last week's meeting? | 05:39 |

| daf | sivang: I want to make sure that I have an up to date copy on chinstrap before I submit a merge | 05:44 |
| LarstiQ | kiko, daf: that could also be done as a bzr plugin so it isn't shell dependant | 05:44 |
| daf | I suspect it wouldn't need any code to be written | 05:45 |
| daf | post_commit=bzrlib.commands.push or something | 05:45 |

| carlos | kiko-afk: fine thanks, Fixing some permissions problems for Jordi | 05:53 |
| kiko-afk | carlos, cool. are you okay with not being in launchpad admins still? | 05:54 |
| carlos | SteveA: The problem with the permissions is just that I left out admins and rosetta experts for the removal case | 05:54 |
| carlos | kiko-afk: yeah I don't think it's a big deal as long as someone else can do any urgent fix while we fix the permissions | 05:54 |
| carlos | we don't have many requests every week so it's not an issue | 05:55 |
| SteveA | carlos: okay. i'll be fixing the admins case as a general thing with a small refactoring soon. | 05:55 |
