habeebHow are you doing gentlemen?01:17
habeebI'm triaging bugs atm, and I want to check the comments I've done to several bugs, to see if the bug reporters answered. Is there a way to do it?01:18
habeebAlso, how can I change the priority of a bug?01:18
BjornThabeeb: no, there's no way of getting a list of bugs that you've commented on atm. what you can do is either subscribe yourself to the bug, or assign it to you (until you're done triaging it)01:26
BjornThabeeb: you have to be a bug contact for a project/distribution in order to change the importance (priority) of a bug.01:27

jtvniekie: there were some problems with the servers yesterday, and there was a bit of downtime today for an upgrade to deal with the problem.01:41
jtvniekie: so that might be it.01:41
niekiejtv: ah, ok.01:41
niekieGuess I'll wait a while, then try again. :)01:42
niekieThank you very much for the clarification.01:42
jtvniekie: and just as a sanity check, another thing that goes wrong a lot with these things in my experience is similar but different email addresses.01:42
niekiejtv: I entered my e-mail address correctly, as far as I know. :)01:43
jtvniekie: also of course, any email between addresses/machines that haven't talked for a while can be delayed by a few hours because of greylisting.01:43
niekiejtv: I see. Though I don't think Gmail does greylisting.01:43
niekieNot sure, though.01:43
niekieAnyway, we'll see how it goes.01:44
jtvI'd guess gmail probably does greylisting, but shares a huuuuge whitelist between all its accounts.01:44
niekieThe "no title" thing seems also wrong there, hehe.01:44

matsubarabdmurray: checking the diff the command, you seem to be right, the command is duplicate bugnumber06:52
bdmurraymatsubara: cool, thanks for checking06:52
bdmurraymatsubara: I tested with 110447 and it worked as advertised06:53
bdmurrayShould I submit a bug about updating help.launchpad.net ?06:54

SchalkenMy question from the OW session: QUESTION: What is the essential difference between filing a bug on a package in launchpad and filing a bug on the developers own bug tracking system?07:01
Schalkenmrevell: ^07:02
mrevellBjornT: ping ^^^^^^07:02
=== matsubara is now known as matsubara-lunch
mrevellSchalken: THanks for joining us. BjornT is probably the best person to answer this.07:03
mrevellor matsubara-lunch07:03
mrevellSchalken: My answer to that question would be: if you file a bug in Launchpad, against a project that has its own bug tracker, you're more than likely filing the bug against Ubuntu's package of that project.07:04
mrevellSchalken: However, some projects now use Launchpad as their main bug tracker, such as Zope or Jokosher.07:05
mrevellSchalken: Let's take OpenOffice as an example.07:05
mrevellSchalken: If you file a bug against OpenOffice in Launchpad, you're filing it against the Ubuntu package of OpenOffice.07:05
mrevellSchalken: That will let the Ubuntu OpenOffice team know about the bug. They can then file it with OpenOffice directly (or upstream, as we call it) if it's a problem with OpenOffice itself and not with the Ubuntu packaging of OpenOffice.07:06
mrevellSchalken: Does that answer your question?07:06
Schalkenmrevell: should generally file bugs on launchpad then?07:07
Schalkenshould users generally*07:07
mrevellSchalken: If they find the bug whilst using Ubuntu, then yes.07:07
mrevellSchalken: Or one of the Ubuntu family, such as Kubuntu or Edubunut.07:08
mreveller, that should be Edubuntu, or course :)07:08
Schalkenmrevell: is there any case where they should definately file it against the developers system instead?07:08
mrevellSchalken: Well, if the person knows for sure that it's a problem with the original developer's code and not with the Ubuntu packaging of it, then I'd recommend filing it both with the developers and with Ubuntu.07:09
mrevellSchalken: and then link the two with a bug watch in Launchpad.07:09
mrevellSchalken: A bug watch is where Launchpad tracks the progress of a bug in an external tracker.07:09
mrevellSchalken: If you're uncertain, you could always ask the Ubuntu bugs team.07:10
Schalkenmrevell: is that where the comments are shared?07:10
Schalken(or did i misread that somewhere?)07:10
mrevellSchalken: Launchpad doesn't track the comment history of bugs in external trackers. Instead, it tracks the status of those bugs and gives you an easy link to that bug in the external tracker.07:10
mrevellSchalken: However07:10
mrevellSchalken: If there's a bug that affects two projects, and they both use Launchpad as their bug tracker, then yeah they share a comment history.07:11
Schalkenmrevell: i see. so while launchpad is a large system to foster software development, it isnt designed to interfere with other people's syetms.07:12
Schalkenthanks for your response!07:12
mrevellSchalken: Yeha, that's a good way of putting it. We don't want to force data on other people.07:12
mrevellSchalken: No problems :)07:12

matsubarabdmurray: I think they happen as soon as LP receives the email, but the changes notification takes 5 or so minutes to be delivered.08:49
bdmurraymatsubara: yeah that was my question08:49
bdmurrayI'm still playing with the duplicate feature08:49
matsubarabdmurray: having problems with it? is lp not accepting your changes?08:51
